KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 3): Setia Awan Group’s transit-oriented development, Astrum Ampang, marked a major construction milestone with the topping out of all six residential towers on Wednesday.

"This achievement reinforces our commitment to go beyond homes, creating well-planned, connected communities that offer lasting value for our homeowners. We look forward to continued collaboration, as we move closer to welcoming the homeowners to their new PR1MA homes."
