Backed by our strong expertise in residential and township developments and hospital planning, we’re confident that our combined strengths with MBNSI will deliver added advantages and growth to the state’s economy,” said Damansara Realty managing director Brian Iskandar Zulkarim.
According to the group, the 50-acre parcel is near the key growth areas of Seremban, Seremban 2, Sepang and Nilai. It is also within driving distance from the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), klia2 and connects to the North-South Expressway and the upcoming Maju Expressway 2 project, expected to be completed in 2020.
