Luxury eco-development
at Sanctuary Ridge
PanaHome Malaysia enters JV with Gasing Meridian
PanaHome Malaysia Sdn
Bhd, a housing company
under PanaHome
Corporation Japan (a subsidiary
of the Panasonic
Group) which provides comprehensive
home-building solutions and total
township development implementations,
announced its joint venture with
Gasing Meridian Sdn Bhd (a member of
the Sanctuary Gasing Group with property
developments worldwide including
Malaysia, Australia, and China) to
push ahead one of Malaysia’s premier
luxury eco-property developments at
Sanctuary Ridge Kuala Lumpur City, a
38-acre luxury development which will
be home to 69 units of bungalows.
Sanctuary Ridge Kuala Lumpur City
is a freehold, low-density, and gated
development located only five minutes
from Bangsar and it offers last-ofits-kind
colonial-sized lots averaging
19,000 sq ft.
Foreigners, permanent residents
(PR) and foreign companies affected
by the RM2 million cap and other new
guidelines imposed by Selangor can aim
their sights at Sanctuary Ridge Kuala
Lumpur City. Its land (which fall under
the district of Wilayah and starts from
just RM288 per sq ft) and bungalow
prices are comparable, if not more competitive,
than luxury neighbourhoods
in Selangor; and it is located adjacent
to the Petaling Jaya district, so owners
can enjoy the closest proximity to key
commercial and residential areas in
Selangor while enjoying one of the most
sought-after Kuala Lumpur addresses.
“We are indeed excited about this
joint venture as it marks another milestone
to express our capabilities in the
construction and housing development
industry in Malaysia. It is our earnest
vision to build an ECONATION Malaysia,
and this is a first step towards that end.
Together with Gasing Meridian Sdn
Bhd, a developer with international
credits, we are very pleased to introduce
our new building technologies to
Malaysian communities,” said Toshiro
Baba, Managing Director of PanaHome
Malaysia.
Already known for its awardwinning
development, Sanctuary Lakes
in Melbourne, Australia, which rehabilitated
salt wasteland into a benchmark
residential development, township
and bird sanctuary for Victoria, Gasing
Meridian is set to enhance its pro-eco
property development portfolio by
collaborating with PanaHome Malaysia
to introduce luxury homes showcasing
new building technologies which are
ideal for Southeast Asian homes.
“Malaysia is the second country
that PanaHome has ventured into after
Taiwan and we are very proud and honoured
to be one of their first partners in
Malaysia,” said Leo Tan, Director, Gasing
Meridian Sdn Bhd.
PanaHome is one of the world’s
leading Green Innovation companies in
the housing industry and we are truly
impressed with PanaHome’s home
building solutions as it demonstrates
sustainable living without compromising
on aesthetics. These are qualities in
which our very discerning and increasingly
environmentally-conscious land
and house owners are looking for in
their dream home.”
“The designs, that we will offer, will
integrate various technologies from
PanaHome’s green building solutions.
We also encourage land owners to
integrate PanaHome’s green building
solutions package, which we offer as
an option, when designing their own
home,” Tan added.
The joint venture will culminate in an
approximately 8,000 sq ft show house,
which is expected to complete by the
end of 2015. The three-storey bungalow
will be a functional and practical twogeneration
home with common areas
for family activities and private areas
in which each family can retreat. All the
bedrooms will be designed to enjoy the
view of Kuala Lumpur City Centre.
This state-of-the-art Sanctuary
Ridge Kuala Lumpur City show house
will showcase the elements of ‘Eco’
and ‘Smart’ home ideas for Southeast
Asian homes, reflecting the two
