At the heart of Malaysia, a testament to visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to sustainable development takes shape in Sunway City. Once a landscape ravaged by 1990s tin mining, this remarkable locale now proudly stands as the nation's first green integrated township and a low-carbon city, a transformation spearheaded by Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Sir Jeffrey Cheah. Driven by his vision, Sunway City aspires to craft a community that seamlessly integrates living, working, playing, and learning in a safe, healthy, and connected environment. As Malaysia's foremost sustainable city, Sunway's success is attributed to the harmonious fusion of technology and innovation into urban planning. Boasting advanced transportation and energy management, coupled with top-tier education, healthcare, and hospitality services, the city adeptly caters to the diverse needs of residents and space users.
