KUALA LUMPUR: Gagasan Nadi Cergas Bhd’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Nadi Cergas Sdn Bhd, has received a Letter of Award (LoA) from Paramount Property (Sepang) Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Paramount Corporation Bhd, to design and build high-rise affordable housing project worth RM195.2 million.

       In a statement today, Gagasan Nadi said the company would undertake the turnkey contract of designing and developing 1,076 high-rise residential units in Greenwood Salak Perdana, Selangor.

       Gagasan Nadi said, under the group’s projects-in-hand, it is slated to deliver more than 10,000 units of affordable homes in the next six years, in supporting notable property developers such as Paramount Group and Kwasa Land Sdn Bhd.
