Subang Jaya, 6 June 2024 – Sunway Sanctuary, Malaysia’s premier senior living community, is celebrating its first anniversary, highlighting its mission to promote active ageing and the significant milestones achieved in redefining retirement living. Over the past year, Sunway Sanctuary has become a beacon of lifestyle-oriented retirement living for Malaysia’s growing Gen X population and beyond.

Sunway Sanctuary has distinguished itself by achieving a 30% to 35% occupancy rate within its first year. This success reflects a growing trend among seniors who seek a vibrant, health-focused retirement lifestyle.
