HCK Capital sets a new standard in green living
Today, green-certified buildings are no longer a luxury. They are a practical solution for a more sustainable lifestyle and a healthier environment.
Therefore, property developers are increasingly motivated to have their projects green certified to better express their commitment for a greener, more sustainable world.
Locally, GreenRE stands at the forefront of green building certification and having its seal of recognition is the gold standard for any developer looking to make a green statement.
For starters, a GreenRE certified development excels in energy and water efficiency.
It is also a key requirement to promote healthier indoor environments while embracing environmentally responsible construction methods.
These green buildings not only help reduce ecological impact but also offer long-term savings for both property owners and tenants.
Choosing to live or work in a GreenRE-certified property means lower utility expenses, cleaner air indoors, and the reassurance of making a meaningful, forward-thinking decision.
It is a choice that delivers long-term value, both financially and environmentally.
Beyond cost savings, green buildings are designed with well-being in mind. Elements such as natural light, good ventilation, and climate-responsive design contribute to healthier, more comfortable living and working environments. These features improve everyday experiences while reducing the strain on natural resources.
Now that all these winning features are being mentioned, it comes as no surprise that award-winning property developer HCK Capital has a number of its projects with the GreenRE certification.
Projects like e.Sentral SmartCity and edumetro have earned GreenRE certification for meeting high sustainability standards, reflecting HCK's dedication to creating smart, future-oriented communities.
For HCK, sustainability isn't an added bonus. It is a core principle. By integrating green practices into our developments, HCK aims to build not just for today, but for a more sustainable tomorrow. —June 10, 2025

Platinum Premium Suites offers direct access to Malaysia's next retail landmark
THERE'S no denying the benefits of living close to a shopping mall. When your home is just a short walk, or elevator ride, away from a retail hub, many lifestyle conveniences naturally fall into place. Looking for entertainment? Most major malls come with cinemas to catch the latest blockbusters. Craving a quick bite or a leisurely meal? The abundance of cafés and eateries takes care of that. Even window shopping becomes an effortless way to unwind, provided the mall is nearby enough to be worth the trip. Now, imagine having direct access to one of the country's largest retail centres—right beneath your home. That's exactly what Platinum Premium Suites, a standout project by the award-winning developer HCK Capital, has to offer. Future residents of Platinum Premium Suites won't need to leave the building to enjoy a full-fledged shopping experience. The upcoming mall, set within the vibrant Empire City development, promises to be a major lifestyle destination and landmark, enhancing the area's visibility and economic activity. Savvy homebuyers understand that convenience often translates into strong property value. A location that's well connected and loaded with amenities typically sees both capital appreciation and solid rental returns. As if having a mall at your doorstep wasn't enough, Platinum Premium Suites is also just minutes away from the iconic 1 Utama Shopping Centre. Known as one of the world's top ten largest malls, 1 Utama spans over 5.5 million square feet with more than 750 outlets. Anchored by retail giants AEON and Parkson, it's also uniquely home to both TGV and GSC cinemas under one roof. The mall's newest wing, 1 Utama E, offers even more attractions—including Malaysia's largest in-mall performing arts venue PJPAC, Korean-themed retail precinct District K, al fresco dining at Estreet, and exciting sports attractions like FlowRider and Windlab. Add to that an ever-evolving mix of global fashion, food, and nightlife—and residents will be spoiled for choice. With such retail richness at hand, both beneath and around them, owners at Platinum Premium Suites enjoy unmatched urban convenience. But units are selling fast, so those interested would be wise to act quickly. —July 25, 2025 Main image:
