This year’s Green Issue analyses the trend of retrofitting and how it helps the property sector keep pace with climate action. The International Finance Corporation’s Ommid Saberi also appears here: discussing the organisation’s globe-spanning work on certifying green buildings and assessing them for climate resilience. Moreover, the issue tracks the emergence of the BERDE-certified Mandani Bay Suites in Cebu and the rise of Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to power. A pre-election Malaysian property market gets a temperature check, as does the Indian diaspora’s post-pandemic interest in the motherland. Additionally, the issue highlights the human-first stylings of Laguarda.Low Architects, plus the coveted homes of Tanglin in Singapore. And from Phnom Penh comes an update on lofty developments in limbo across the city.
