Also in his speech, Nga mentioned that TRX is a prime example of effective urban regeneration with a clear emphasis on sustainability, connectivity, innovation and placemaking. It created excellent opportunities for progressive work, play, living and community development. It is also designed to accommodate gatherings and activities safely in the inner city.
“As a key residential component of Malaysia’s international financial district, TRX Residences delivers a good model for next generation urban homes.
“The international standards found here are obvious. It will meet the needs of global talents who will be working here in TRX, and those living at TRX Residences will enjoy the urban integrated living comparable to any other global city,” he said.
