HCM CITY – Real estate producer Anpha Holdings yesterday opened the showhouse for SIMCITY Premier Homes project, the first smart city project in Việt Nam.

Located on Road No 4 in District 9, SIMCITY is expected to become an ideal destination for experts from many nations and territories in the world as the project is built with many modern materials and full of amenities such as a gym, a floating pool and clubhouse, business lounge, park and start-up incubation mega centre.

In addition, it will be equipped with many smart technologies.

The project contains 314 houses and villas and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2019.

At the showhouse, customers can experience new smart-home technologies that have never been seen in Việt Nam, according to the developer. All of them apply 4.0-level technology.

A robot that acts as steward was previously shown at a technology exhibition in Germany. Invented by South Korea’s LG Group, the robot can control all household machines through a smartphone.

Panasonic, meanwhile, has provided its most advanced CCTV systems as well as modern air conditioners.

According to Anpha Holdings, the SIMCITY project was selected by Cornell University in the US as a lecture topic this month.

Lê Viết Đức, deputy general director of Anpha Holdings, said: “We want to develop a model smart city in Việt Nam with smart citizens. Advanced smart-home technologies have become a reality in the project.”

At the showhouse’s opening ceremony, media company Dot Property awarded SIMCITY the “South East Asia Best of the Luxury Township Development.”

Anpha Holdings is a major real estate developer in Việt Nam. It has paid more than VNĐ1 trillion (US$43.8 million) to buy real estate projects from other developers this year. The company has also developed many big projects in Singapore, Malaysia and Australia. VNS
