Gamuda Land affirms its long-term vision in Hai Phong through a sustainable urban development strategy aimed at international living standards.

Amidst the powerful transformation of the real estate market, Mr. James Lai Siaw Pin - General Director of Gamuda Land Vietnam - Northern Zone, shared his insights with the Business Forum (Diễn đàn Doanh nghiệp) regarding the long-term development vision and expectations for the Vietnamese market in this new phase.

- In the context of Vietnam's real estate market undergoing a healthier restructuring, where foreign enterprises are selective about projects and prioritizing liquidity, what makes Gamuda Land confident in the sales prospects of its products in Hai Phong?

Hai Phong is a highly potential market with opportunities to develop high-quality projects. Although the market is very vibrant thanks to the strong growth of the industrial sector, the supply of quality housing remains very limited. That is why we are highly meticulous in our project selection. Gamuda Land always places sustainable values at the forefront, while committing to international standards in both design and sustainable development. More importantly, we perceive that today's customers are not just looking for a place to reside, but are seeking a comprehensive living experience with integrated amenities and smart planning—which the Ambience by GL project satisfies exceptionally well.

Unlike other major cities, Hai Phong still has plenty of room to develop well-planned urban areas that cater to a modern lifestyle. It is this combination of industrial growth momentum and the limited supply of high-quality housing that has created a special attraction for Gamuda Land to deploy sustainable projects and build communities according to international standards.

- With rapid urbanization and increasingly higher demands regarding the living environment, how does Gamuda Land evaluate the demand for housing integrated with parks, green amenities, and the "15-minute city" model in Hai Phong? What sustainable development standards will the company apply to its new project?

Rapid urbanization has driven the demand for fully-planned residential areas that are not just mere places to live, but also integrate complete conveniences such as shopping centers, gyms, swimming pools, parks, and amenities that meet daily needs—true to the "15-minute city" model. Gamuda Land focuses on capturing this trend to design appropriate projects, ensuring residents enjoy a balanced and connected life. In terms of sustainable development, our project strictly complies with international standards, which not only contributes to improving the quality of life but also supports the long-term environmental and social development of the city.

- How has the boom of the "Nexus generation" of residents—who are dynamic, possess refined aesthetic taste, and hold international living standards—influenced Gamuda Land's product design direction?

The Nexus generation has strongly impacted the way Gamuda Land designs its products. They have high requirements for aesthetics, functionality, and lifestyle integration. Therefore, we prioritize flexible designs, smart living spaces, and modern amenities that support work, entertainment, and social interaction. Modern technology, healthcare facilities, and eco-friendly designs are also indispensable elements in Gamuda Land's projects. In particular, the apartment segment is attracting a lot of attention from experts and investors, a segment where the Ambience by GL project perfectly meets those expectations.

- From Gamuda Land's perspective, what makes Ambience by GL stand out compared to other mid-to-high-end residential projects in the North, especially in meeting the lifestyle needs of the successful generation?

Ambience by GL is a prominent project in the mid-to-high-end residential segment in the North, featuring a unique combination of design, integrated amenities, and sustainable development. Unlike conventional projects, Ambience focuses on serving a demographic of successful customers who highly value convenience, community bonding, and a civilized lifestyle. The apartments are intelligently arranged with integrated amenities, green spaces, and wellness areas, creating a balanced environment where residents can live, work, and socialize harmoniously. Ambience aims to deliver an extraordinary, long-lasting living experience for the new generation of urban residents.

Gamuda Land always looks towards a vision that goes beyond individual projects. Through Ambience and our future development plans, we desire to actively contribute to the urban transformation of Hai Phong, setting a new benchmark for sustainable and quality living. Our goal is to create vibrant, connected communities, elevate living standards, foster social cohesion, and protect the environment. We hope to leave a profound and positive footprint, not only through the physical structures but also through the way people live, work, and integrate into a dynamic port city.

- Thank you very much, sir!
