PETALING JAYA: The celebration of the sixth installation of the StarProperty Awards 2021: Real Estate Developer was held in Cyberspace for the second time, capitalising on the experience gained from last year’s virtual event to create greater excitement and pomp.

Continuing to break new ground as winners celebrated their hard-won trophies, StarProperty, the property division of Star Media Group (SMG), conducted the auspicious event in SMG’s Studio Maya, a green screen studio to cater to creating digital content.

Following strict standard operating procedure (SOP), the managing directors, chief executive officers and heads of winning property developers went through two days of filming and interviews in preparation for the virtually held StarProperty Awards 2021.

Thanking the leaders for taking time off from their busy schedules, SMG chairman Tan Sri Chor Chee Heung said: “We are glad to be able to organise yet another year of honouring the best in the Malaysian property sector, albeit virtually, for the safety of all participating developers and everyone involved.”

He said this year’s award categories had been fine-tuned to reflect the significance that each award embodies.

“The refined categories cater to a broader niche of developments that bring unique qualities to the table without diluting the exclusivity of the awards. The StarProperty Awards have always been a catalyst to encourage developers to reach greater heights.

“The panel of judges presiding over the awards come from varied disciplines and different backgrounds, from architects, surveyors, designers and town planners to property consultants and industry experts. The diversity of the esteemed panel ensures a fairer and more comprehensive audit of the entries received,” said Chor.
