Two of Malaysia’s leading property developers, UEM Sunrise Berhad (“UEM Sunrise”) and Sime Darby Property Berhad (“Sime Darby Property”) have come together and penned a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) with Netherlands Maritime University College (“NMUC”) to set up a campus in Radia Bukit Jelutong.
With an expected enrolment of more than a thousand students, this will catalyse the new and modern township into becoming a bustling student hub, and lively retail and commercial location.
Radia Bukit Jelutong was developed by Sime Darby Property Sunrise Development Sdn Bhd (“SDPSD” or the “Company”), a 50:50 JV company formed by UEM Sunrise and Sime Darby Property. The MoU was signed by UEM Sunrise Chief Marketing Officer Kenny Wong and Sime Darby Property Chief Operating Officer – Integrated Development Datuk Ir. Mohd Idris Abdullah representing SDPSD while NMUC was represented by its Executive Chairman Dato' Captain Razali Bin Yaacob.
Based on the MoU, NMUC will be taking up a total of 24 commercial units at Radia Bukit Jelutong with a Gross Development Value of RM 27.6 million under a special Rent-To-Own (“RTO”) scheme. With a built-up area of 34,358 sf, the space acquired by NMUC spans from the seventh floor to the ninth floor of the block.
NMUC aims to enroll approximately over a thousand students during their opening semester, which aligns with the Company’s target to make Radia Bukit Jelutong a bustling centre not only for students but for the surrounding communities in Shah Alam and Subang Jaya. Located within walking distance from two FIFA-standard football fields, Radia Bukit Jelutong also decks an array of cafés, F&B operators, a grocer, and other businesses.
The RM1.6 billion integrated development is one of the Company’s successful JV projects and has a gross area of 2.7 million sf, including serviced apartments with four acres of facilities and amenities. Radia Bukit Jelutong, which is designed by French architecture firm J+H Boiffils, comprises 640 units of serviced apartments, 400,000 sf of office space, and retail space totalling 880,000 sf.
Radia Residences, an intelligently designed serviced apartment development, is the epitome of urban lifestyle. Built with sustainable features including energy-efficient lighting, water-efficient fittings, and rainwater harvesting systems, Radia Residences is pinned at a prime location with seamless accessibility and connectivity to multiple amenities including schools, hospitals, banks, mosques, and shopping centres, making it a premier spot to settle down.
