It had previously received the Planning Excellence title, which was awarded by the Malaysian Institute of Planners to Sibu Jaya for its comprehensive master plan.<\/p>\n<p>At the South-East Asia Property Awards, Sibu Jaya walked away with the Highly Commended Certificate for the Pearl Avenue homes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlineAd\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-Desktop_TSOL_News_SP_Mid_OSV\" data-google-query-id=\"CPyG08-Fqu8CFctJfQodIM4Cbw\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/21764785206\/Desktop\/Desktop_TSOL\/Desktop_TSOL_News\/Desktop_TSOL_News_SP_Mid\/Desktop_TSOL_News_SP_Mid_OSV_0__container__\">To-date, 170 units have been completed and sold, under Phase 1 and 2, while another 197 units are being constructed under Phases 3 to 5.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Developer Distrepark Sdn Bhd \u2013 was overjoyed with the award.<\/p>\n<p>According to its assistant general manager Lim Pooi Siang, the award will serve to spur the township to even greater heights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are indeed blessed to have the guidance and support of Housing Minister Datuk Amar Abang Johari Tun Openg, the Sibu Rural District Council, local leaders and the community working together with us as a team,\u201d Lim said.<\/p>\n<p>The township, which has a current population of around 28,000 people, has been developing rapidly over the last five years.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, 60 units of its shophouses were sold out within two days of opening. This was followed by the brisk sales of another 54 units in July.<\/p>\n<p>At the rate it is going, the 485.6ha Sibu Jaya township looks set to be a major township that may equal the old Sibu town within the next 10 years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><a
