SHAH ALAM (Sept 8): A five-acre plot within the Kwasa Damansara township has been assigned for a hospital development, and the master developer is currently looking for an operator.
The township in Selangor, helmed by Kwasa Land Sdn Bhd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Employees Provident Fund (EPF), straddles Shah Alam and Petaling Jaya (PJ). It is being developed over a 20- to 25-year period and is expected to have a population of 100,000 upon completion by 2050.
Speaking to reporters during the Kwasa Damansara media site tour on Tuesday (Sept 8), Kwasa Land managing director Datuk Adenan Md Yusof said the master developer's focus is on building up the township's residential population alongside its commercial, community and lifestyle offerings. Kwasa Damansara is planned to have 27,335 residential units, including 11,200 affordable homes, as the 2,255-acre township enters its next phase of development. More than 60,000 people are expected to occupy its residential units over the next five years.
“Each component must contribute to the wider township ecosystem. Our role is not simply to deliver individual developments, but to ensure that they come together to create a connected, active and liveable community over the long term,” he said.
Kwasa Land said the township is planned to cater to a broad range of socioeconomic groups, with landed, low-density and high-rise developments alongside its affordable housing programme. Of the township's 11,200 planned affordable homes, 4,694 units are to be developed under Phases 1 and 2 on the Shah Alam side of Kwasa Damansara. Phase 1 comprises 1,669 units across four blocks under Idaman Kwasa Damansara, a high-rise development by Gagasan Nadi Cergas Bhd targeted for completion by the first quarter of 2027. Another 3,025 affordable units under Phase 2 are expected to be launched by end-2026.
Located about 500m from the Kwasa Damansara MRT station, Idaman Kwasa Damansara is planned to be connected to the transit hub via pedestrian walkways. The project has attracted more than 3,400 approved applicants. Other residential developments include Dedaun Rimba, a completed 264-unit landed strata development by YTL Land & Development Bhd on 12.7 acres, comprising 68 three-storey link homes and 196 one-and-a-half-storey townhouses. The development has received its certificate of completion and compliance. Its link homes were sold out during the initial sales preview, while its townhouses recorded an 80% take-up rate on the same day.
Daya Residence by TSR Development Sdn Bhd is a 260-unit freehold, low-density development comprising 34 semidee homes, one bungalow, seven town villas and 218 condominium units. Serene Kwasa Damansara, meanwhile, will comprise more than 400 high-end condo units by Serene Impian Development Sdn Bhd. Units are expected to be priced RM900,000–RM1 million, while the development is targeted for completion by end-2027. Serene Impian is also developing Linari, comprising 496 units — 480 condo units across two towers and 16 parkhomes — for completion in 2028. Nearby, RIA Residensi by Sunsuria Damansara Sdn Bhd will comprise 494 condo units and 26 landed homes on a 9.5-acre site. Another recent addition, Waringin, is a 21.08-acre low-density development comprising 820 homes, including terrace homes and four condo towers, to be delivered in two phases.
Malaysian Resources Corp Bhd (MRCB) is developing Tujuh Residences in partnership with Kwasa Land within the 64-acre Kwasa Damansara City Centre (KDCC). The development comprises 573 residences across two wings, with units starting from about RM494,000, and completion scheduled for 2027. KDCC is being positioned as the township's emerging commercial centre, supporting future business, employment, retail and community activity.
Other projects in the pipeline on the Shah Alam side include EXSIM Group's D'Nuri and D'Evia serviced residences, as well as a development by PPB Hartabina Sdn Bhd. Development on the PJ side includes ParkCity Damansara Phase 1 by ParkCity Group, known as Zenia, as well as projects by Serene Impian, LBS Bina Holdings Bhd and Nadi Cergas. The PJ side will also be home to Kwasa Damansara's first international school, to be developed by Educ8, the organisation behind Epsom College in Malaysia.
Kwasa Damansara is served by the Kwasa Damansara and Kwasa Sentral MRT stations, with the former providing an interchange between the MRT Kajang and Putrajaya lines. The township also has access to the Sungai Buloh and Subang SkyPark KTM stations. It is connected to six major road and expressway networks, including the Damansara–Shah Alam Elevated Expressway (DASH), New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) and Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), and is about 4km from Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport in Subang.
Kwasa Land said planned walking and cycling routes will connect residential neighbourhoods with public transport, parks, community amenities and lifestyle destinations. The network will include a planned pedestrian bridge linking the township's Shah Alam and PJ precincts and is expected to provide about 27km of uninterrupted jogging, walking and cycling routes. About 251 acres, or 11% of Kwasa Damansara, have been allocated for parks, landscaped areas and other green and open spaces, including nine planned parks.
Kwasa Land said it aims to develop Kwasa Damansara as a low-carbon city, supported by green infrastructure, integrated stormwater management, pedestrian connectivity and the preservation of natural areas. “We are moving from master plan to reality, and from individual developments towards a more complete township experience,” Adenan said.
