She said “We are delighted with the leasing progress and the market’s response to our Residences. Just four months after opening, we have had our 110th lease signed, so this is a great milestone, and a sign that Ho Chi Minh City is ready and very receptive to a unique product that offers them an exclusive ‘all-in-one’ lifestyle at a premium location, provided by the only world renowned international brand name in the city”.
