At the meeting, the municipal leader lauded the group’s investment in Vietnam, including many large-scale projects and constructions in HCM City.

Sharing the implementation of HCM City’s ongoing projects, especially the Saigon Sport City, Phong asked the Singaporean group to complete a detailed plan on the project in line with the city’s requirements. Keppel Land was also urged to connect the project with the Rach Chiec Sports Complex, contributing to the city’s plan to host the 31st Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games) in 2021.

Phong hoped that the Keppel Land will participate in HCM City’s smart city building project, particularly the building of an innovative urban area connecting District 2, District 9 and Thu Duc district.

For his part, Loh Chin Hua said the group is doing several important projects in Ho Chi Minh City, including turning the Saigon Sport City into a smart urban area, with the use of smart technology in security, trade, renewable energy development and application of green solutions in urban development.
