The Vietnam Property Awards is part of the long established Asia Property Awards to recognise the best practices in the real estate sector across the world. The Asia Property Awards offer an unrivalled showcase of the Asia region’s real estate industry, boosting awareness and highlighting top quality projects in Asia. With a professionally run and fully audited judging system, they also bring Asia’s real estate industry to the world stage.
Chen Lian Pang, CEO of CapitaLand Vietnam, received Vietnam’s Real Estate Personality of the Year award from the editors of Property Report, Asia’s leading luxury real estate, architecture and design magazine. The only accolade not chosen by the independent panel of judges, it is given to an individual who has achieved great success in the local property sector in the past year.
With more than 30 years of experience in construction and real estate, Chen has earned a reputation of excellence, especially when it comes to doing business in emerging markets. For that he has been named as the Real Estate Personality of the Year, recognising his achievements and exemplary leadership in the industry.
“It is a great honour and privilege to be chosen as Real Estate Personality of the Year. This is a remarkable achievement not only for myself but also for CapitaLand Vietnam, especially on those who have supported me and taught me to be a better leader through the years. I believe that the best-run companies connect effectively with customers, employees, and the communities where they operate in – it is a continuous learning process where we learn from each other,” Chen said.
