\nLadies and gentlemen, the archipelago\u2019s finest
\nSouth Quarter, winner of the South East Asia Property Award for Best Office Architectural Design
\nIndonesia continues to be an exemplar of endurance in the real estate industry. The Indonesian government is expected to give\u00a0the property sector a boost over the following months through the tax amnesty, now advancing into its second and third phases. By repatriating untold sums of wealth to the resource-rich country, developers could be seeing a much-needed infusion of capital in the coming year.
\nHome to some of the most trendsetting developers in Asia, Indonesia represented itself well at the 2016 South East Asia Property Awards, where PT Intiland Tbk and Sinar Mas Land slayed a tough competition to take gongs for the country.
