Setia Awan Group has reached a significant construction milestone for Astrum Ampang, its major transit-oriented development along Jalan Jelatek, with all six residential towers officially topped out. The achievement reflects steady progress for the RM1.6 billion mixed residential project, which spans 6.85 acres of leasehold land and features towers ranging between 24 and 48 storeys.
A key highlight of the development is the strong demand for affordable units. All 712 PR1MA homes—including SoHo suites of 450 sq ft and serviced apartments of 550 sq ft, priced from RM250,000—located within Tower A have been completely sold out. These units form part of the Rumah Mampu Milik initiative under PR1MA Corp Malaysia.
Beyond Tower A, the remaining towers—S, T, R, U and M—house open-market residential offerings supported by 27 retail lots at ground level. These market units, ranging from 280 sq ft to 1,000 sq ft, are priced from RM230,000 and have contributed to the project’s impressive 95% take-up rate to date. Astrum Ampang will deliver a total of 5,255 units across SoHo transit homes, SoHo suites and serviced apartments.
Speaking at the topping-out ceremony, Setia Awan Group director Datuk Marcus Doh said the milestone reflects the company’s commitment to creating well-connected urban living. He noted that the partnership with PR1MA underscores a shared goal of making transit-linked housing more accessible, especially with the project being situated next to the Jelatek LRT station.
PR1MA group CEO Datuk Seri Mohd Nazri Md Shariff added that progress at Astrum Ampang reinforces the organisation’s mission to develop connected, value-driven communities. He expressed confidence in the continued partnership as the development moves closer to welcoming future homeowners.

This milestone comes at a time when demand for well-connected urban homes continues to align with broader market trends across the Klang Valley. The region has seen strong activity not only in residential hubs but also in surrounding commercial and industrial markets—such as rising enquiries for commercial property in KL, expanding business hubs with office space in Bukit Jalil, and high demand for industrial land in Selangor, factories in Puchong, and industrial property in the Subang area.
