Sunway City Ipoh
The visionary founder of Sunway Group- Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Dr. Jeffrey Cheah, comes from the small town of Pusing in Kinta District, Perak. He’s widely known for turning old tin-mining land into vibrant, livable spaces—starting with Sunway City Kuala Lumpur, and later bringing the same vision to Sunway City Ipoh.
Sunway’s story is about turning challenges into opportunities. From abandoned land to thriving green townships, the journey reflects strong leadership, smart planning, and a deep focus on building sustainable, community-driven spaces.

Sunway City Ipoh is uniquely integrated into Hulu Kinta, an emerging township on the outskirts of Ipoh, designed to grow alongside and inspire local vibrancy.
Hidden Gem- The Haven Resort
Another rising force in leadership and a backbone of Tambun’s development is the visionary guidance of Peter Chan, CEO of The Haven Resort. Under his direction, the resort has been pivotal in elevating Ipoh’s reputation, transforming it into a prominent tourism destination through strategic planning and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
The Haven Resort, the neighbor of Sunway City, has greatly boosted tourism in Ipoh, offering luxury accommodations set amidst the majestic limestone hills and verdant tropical rainforests. This achievement reflects a remarkable level of creative vision, seamlessly blending the natural beauty of the landscape with thoughtfully designed resort infrastructure — creating a harmonious retreat that offers residents and guests an exceptional experience of relaxation.

Perak, a state proud of its roots, offers a unique blend of identity and opportunity — the Land of the Royal Highway, it upholds Malay cultural heritage, while also warmly welcoming international visitors seeking authentic tourism, wellness retreats, and resort experiences.
The sustainability-driven development inspires Ipoh as an ideal place to consider as a second home, especially for those looking for a quality lifestyle, recreational living, or a peaceful retirement destination.
