The term ‘sustainable’ in this context is two-fold. On one hand, it represents our collective effort towards meeting Singapore’s net-zero emissions target by 2050. But ‘sustainable’ also speaks to another critical aspect of our journey. It refers to ensuring affordable and sufficient housing, which meets not only the basic needs but also the aspirations of Singaporeans. It’s about making sure every Singapore resident has a place to call home, a space to grow, dream, and thrive.” says Bernard Tong, CEO of EdgeProp Singapore.Minister Desmond Lee echoed this sentiment in his opening address, “Today, we celebrate the success of many outstanding projects, and the collective effort by all to bring our real estate industry to greater heights. These projects are not just developments or assets, but they are the places that many of us proudly call home. In this vein, I am delighted that the theme of this year’s awards is “Sustainable Spaces”.”The esteemed judges of EPEA 2022 were Angela Lim, Co-founder of SuMisura; Desmond Sim, CEO of Edmund Tie & Company; Sky Seah, Academic Director at National University of Singapore; Tang Kok Thye, Associate Partner of ADDP Architects LLP; Yvonne Tan, Director of DP Green; and Bernard Tong, CEO of EdgeProp Singapore.
