KUALA LUMPUR (July 15): Having shone at the inaugural awards in 2017, the spotlight was on the Petronas Twin Towers once again this year as it was awarded gold at The Edge Malaysia Best Managed & Sustainable Property Awards (BMSPA) 2024 under the 10 Years and Above – Non-strata Office category.
The Petronas Twin Towers was also the recipient of the Editor’s Choice Awards for Timeless Excellence. The development is managed by KLCC Urusharta Sdn Bhd.
In 2017, the towers bagged gold for the Non-strata – Commercial category and the Editor’s Choice Awards for Iconic Innovation.
Properties that previously won gold at the BMSPA can only resubmit their property for consideration after three years.
Meanwhile, KLCC Park, also managed by KLCC Urusharta, retained its gold status this year under the 10 Years and Above — Specialised and Gold for The Edge Malaysia-ILAM Sustainable Landscape Awards 2024 under the Landscape Planning category. It also took home the Editor’s Choice Awards for Exemplary Community Magnet.
The park had previously won in 2018 for the same Specialised category and obtained the Editor’s Choice Award for Exemplary Contribution to Nation.
The gala dinner for this year’s awards was held at the One World Hotel, Petaling Jaya, on Monday. In his welcome speech, The Edge publisher and group CEO Datuk Ho Kay Tat said the record number of submissions for the awards this year was a heartening sign of growing awareness and commitment to best-in-class and sustainable property management practices.
“It signifies that more and more industry professionals are recognising the critical impact of property management on the value of properties and the standard of living for those who inhabit them,” he added.

“Over five weeks, they conducted site visits to projects in the Klang Valley, Johor Bahru, Penang, Kuching and Kota Kinabalu. It was an extensive and intensive judging process. Each visit takes up around two hours, so just over 100 hours have been put in by our judges and they were doing it pro bono. Our judges deserve a big hand!”
