Damansara West set to emerge as next Subang Jaya

Focus Malaysia5 days ago

JUST several years ago, Damansara West was a largely undeveloped area with untapped potential.
Today, it is on track to become one of the Klang Valley's most vibrant new townships, thanks to the ambitious vision of property developer HCK Capital.
Over the next decade, this area is expected to emerge as a major residential and commercial hotspot, possibly rivalling the likes of Subang Jaya.
The groundwork for this transformation is already visible. Modern infrastructure and public amenities are steadily taking shape, supporting a growing demand from homebuyers and businesses alike.
A notable catalyst for the region's development is Kwasa Damansara, a new central business district strategically located between Kota Damansara and Sungai Buloh.
This prime positioning ensures that Damansara West sits right at the intersection of progress.
Leading the way in this urban shift is e-Sentral, a signature project by HCK Capital. Conveniently located near the DASH highway, with the road flanking both the front and rear of the development.
e-Sentral is designed to serve as a central hub of connectivity and convenience for the area.
More than just a mixed-use development, e-Sentral reflects HCK Capital's commitment to sustainable and forward-thinking design.
Embracing ESG values, the project incorporates a 'tree-and-tech' theme, fusing smart living features with environmentally friendly design, all set amidst a backdrop of greenery.
Built with both current lifestyle needs and future growth in mind, e-Sentral also draws from the success of HCK's acclaimed Education City series.
These projects have not only attracted strong market interest but also fostered a sense of community around education-centric planning.
With its innovative features, strategic location, and eco-conscious approach, e-Sentral is positioned as more than just a property. It's a glimpse into the future of urban living, available today. —June 24, 2025

MSMEs risk global supply chain exclusion without ESG

Published on: Sunday, June 29, 2025 Published on: Sun, Jun 29, 2025 Text Size: Ewon listening to a participant at one of the booths. Kota Kinabalu: Micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Malaysia must adopt environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices or risk being excluded from global supply chains, said Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister Datuk Ewon Benedick. He said large corporations, including government-linked companies and multinationals, are increasingly making ESG compliance a key criterion in procurement and investment decisions. 'ESG is not just a trend, it is the future. It's not solely about protecting the environment, but also about responsible business conduct towards workers and society, along with transparent and ethical governance. 'Although ESG compliance is not yet mandatory, it is becoming increasingly urgent, particularly across both domestic and international supply chains,' he said. Ewon was speaking at the opening of the ESG Awareness Seminar for MSMEs in Kota Kinabalu, Saturday. Also in attendance were Universiti Malaysia Sabah vice-chancellor Professor Datuk Dr Kasim Mansor, SME Corp Malaysia Chairman Tan Sri Bernard Giluk Dompok, and SME Corp Malaysia chief executive officer Rizal Nainy. Ewon said the seminar was timely in strengthening MSMEs' understanding of ESG and their readiness to implement it in day-to-day operations. He said the initiative also reflects the ministry's ongoing commitment, through its agencies, to foster ESG awareness and adoption among MSMEs. 'This is particularly important to enable MSMEs to integrate into the supply chains of GLCs and multinational firms, as well as to access international markets where ESG practices are increasingly a basic requirement,' he said. Ewon added that SME Corp Malaysia introduced ESG Guidelines for MSMEs early last year as part of efforts to raise awareness and build capacity among local entrepreneurs. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?

Colonial Infinite set to redefine investment potential in Subang Jaya

Every savvy property investor understands that a strong rental yield and solid capital appreciation are key to a successful investment, and both are closely tied to one crucial factor: location. This is common knowledge within the real estate community, but actually securing a well-priced property in a prime area remains a significant challenge. That said, a promising opportunity may soon arrive with the launch of Colonial Infinite by HCK Capital at edumetro in Subang Jaya. Education-driven growth It's been highlighted time and again that properties located near educational institutions tend to perform well. The steady stream of students, faculty, and support services drives demand for housing and local businesses, ultimately pushing up rental rates and property values. Subang Jaya is already a thriving educational hub. Colonial Infinite sits in the heart of this ecosystem, surrounded by notable institutions like Monash University, Sunway University, Taylor's Lakeside Campus, Sunway International School, and SEGi College, which is right within edumetro itself. The walkability to class — especially within the same development — is a unique edge that potential tenants will appreciate and investors should not overlook. Built-In demand With an estimated 45,000 people living within a 5km radius and over 5,000 within edumetro itself, including 4,500 students from SEGi College, the demand for quality housing is already baked in. This ensures both rental viability and long-term value growth. For investors looking for a property with strong fundamentals and high potential, Colonial Infinite offers an appealing prospect — one backed by demand, location, and community growth.

China, Europe look to strengthen cooperation on ESG promotion

STUTTGART, Germany, June 26 (Xinhua) -- The concept of ESG, short for environmental, social, and governance, plays such an important role for the climate target across the globe, and strengthened cooperation between China and Europe is a must for further ESG applications, a conference held here on Wednesday and Thursday highlighted. Initiated by the Chinese General Consulate in Frankfurt and co-organized by Xinhuanet and other Chinese and German organizations, the second Sino-European Corporate ESG Best Practices Conference is held here with aim to pay tribute to the companies that have fared well in putting the ESG concept into practice and promote further cooperation between Chinese and European companies in this regard. ESG is no longer an add-on, but a strategic element of modern corporate management. It helps identify risks early, set standards, and build long-term, stable partnerships, said Thorsten Giehler, head of Economy, Employment, Social Development of Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, a service provider for international cooperation for sustainable development and international educational work. Giehler called on stakeholders to work on clear, practical rules which can provide guidance and planning security to facilitate the application of ESG. Huang Yiyang, Chinese Consul General in Frankfurt, believed that the function of ESG should go well beyond a technical jargon and be considered as a solution for the future. As staunch defenders of the ideas of multilateralism, open cooperation and green transformation, China and Europe should stand out and join hands to provide leadership and confidence for the global cause of ESG at a time of rising uncertainties, Huang stressed in a speech made on Wednesday night. As a co-organizer of the conference, Xinhuanet intends to boost the dissemination and applications of the ESG concept among Chinese and European companies, Chu Xuejun, chairman of the board of Xinhuanet Co., Ltd. told Xinhua. It will not only be beneficial for China and Europe to achieve a win-win result in green transformation, but also set a solid stage for further and deeper economic and trade cooperation between the two sides, Chu added. With a case detailing the joint initiative with Air China, the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Technical Pathway Challenge for Chinese Universities, Airbus Germany turned out to be one of the winners at the conference. "This recognition highlights both the project's impact and the strong partnership between China and the EU," said Anna Lisa Junge on behalf of Airbus Germany. "Today's recognition inspires us to go further. We look forward to deepening our cooperation with Air China and other partners, advancing SAF and broader ESG practices -- in China, and for the globe." ESG application cases in areas including environment protection, social responsibility, corporate management, scientific and technological innovation, education and training, and other ESG-related innovative practices, have been submitted to the conference for review by a committee consisting of Chinese and European experts. The two-day event also featured CEO dialogues, application case study, discussions and roadshows, with leading Chinese and European companies looking to explore the possibility of putting the ESG concept into better mass practices.
