Hongkong Land's expertise and experience will strengthen our company and bring us new knowhow that will enable us to present pioneering community concepts to home buyers. Through this co-operation, we will develop a premium housing estate spanning over 100 rai which offers uniqueness in terms of project concept, design and facilities.

Hongkong Land's reputation will assure potential buyers of a product delivered to international standards," Chainid said.

Mr. Robert Wong, Chief Executive of Hongkong Land said: "Hongkong Land has long been interested in low-rise residential development and is very pleased to be joining hands with Property Perfect in developing our first such project in Thailand. We have a successful track record of developing both low-rise and condominium projects across Asia, including several township projects in China, Indonesia and the Philippines. We are confident that with this co-operation, we will replicate this success in Thailand."

Wongsakorn Prasitvipart, Managing Director of Property Perfect Public Company Limited, added: "The project we are starting with will span over 100 rai and encompass a large lake as a key selling point. It is located in Chaengwattana on a 130-rai land plot, near the expressway and the MRTA Pink Line. This project, which is based on the concept of a Lake Resort, will house 179 units worth over Bt4,000 million. It is scheduled for opening in early 2019. The project will be marketed under a new, more premium brand. The most prestigious property is a large house by the lake covering an area of 1 rai, that comes with a price tag of Bt100 million, making it a very rare product in the market. Thanks to Hongkong Land's expertise, our projects will push Thailand's luxury residential development standards to a truly international level."
