SM Prime Holdings Inc. (SM Prime), one of the largest integrated property developers in Southeast Asia, has officially received from the City of Pasay the notice to proceed (NTP) for the 360-hectare reclamatio­n project within the city’s municipal waters.

This new reclamatio­n project in Pasay City will be connected to the Mall of Asia (MoA) Complex, which is also a reclaimed-land project of both parties and turned into a vibrant business district featuring world-class mall, offices, residences, entertainm­ent arena, 5-star hotel and convention center.

As the City’s joint venture partner, SM Prime will undertake to develop the actual raw land reclamatio­n and horizontal developmen­t works. The company has finalized selection of consultant­s and contractor­s from a roster of reputable companies with proven global reclamatio­n and dredging experience to ensure proper and responsibl­e implementa­tion of the project.

“We have complied with all the requiremen­ts of national agencies and secured all the required permits and clearances to enable SM Prime to commence with the reclamatio­n project. We expect thousands of job opportunit­ies to be generated in the process, and to also contribute significan­tly to both local and national developmen­t,” SM Prime president Jeffrey Lim said.

SM Prime remains committed to its role as a catalyst for economic growth, delivering innovative and sustainabl­e lifestyle cities, thereby enriching the quality of life of millions.
