INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY<br />
AWARDS (ASIA PACIFIC) <strong>2018</strong><br />
30 MAY <strong>2018</strong><br />
The Marriott Marquis<br />
Queen’s Park in<br />
Bangkok became<br />
the location of much<br />
celebration when it<br />
hosted The International Property<br />
Awards (Asia Pacific) <strong>2018</strong><br />
presentation dinner in May. The<br />
Awards recognises the finest<br />
of property, architecture and<br />
interior design in the region.<br />
Scrutinised by a judging<br />
committee which comprised of<br />
over 70 global experts,<br />
25 different countries in the<br />
Asia Pacific region – among them<br />
Malaysia, Thailand, Kazakhstan,<br />
China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan,<br />
India, Pakistan, Australia and New<br />
Zealand to name but a handful –<br />
competed for 47 awards across<br />
four categories.<br />
Categories include Architecture,<br />
Interior Design, Development<br />
and Real Estate and encompass<br />
everything from public service<br />
architecture such as hospitals and<br />
municipality buildings to office,<br />
retail and leisure architecture.<br />
Despite some stiff competition,<br />
<strong>Tropicana</strong> Corporation Berhad<br />
emerged victorious, bagging the<br />
award for Residential High Rise<br />
in the Development category for<br />
<strong>Tropicana</strong> Residences. This means<br />
it will be entered into the overall<br />
international awards at the end<br />
of the year and compete on a<br />
global stage.<br />
The International Property<br />
Awards also hosted The IPAX<br />
Asia Pacific exhibition at the same<br />
venue. A series of professional<br />
networking events, including<br />
seminars and an exhibition, it<br />
was open to all property-related<br />
companies and suppliers, award<br />
participants and members of<br />
the public.<br />
