Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – Premier lifestyle property developer Eastern & Oriental (E&O) has launched a new digital documentary series, which spotlights the diverse insights and perspectives of Malaysian thinkers, entrepreneurs, and artists who help rethink how people should live their lives.

The documentary series, titled ‘Human Living’, imagines the future of our cities through veritable topics such as ‘Social & Cultural Capital’, ‘15-Minute City’, and ‘Secondary City Boom’. 

It will also feature E&O’s developments from Conlay and The Peak in Kuala Lumpur, to Avira in Medini Iskandar, Johor, and The Meg and Arica on the much-anticipated prime reclaimed island, Andaman in Penang.

The first episode, which is currently out, invites viewers to delve into what makes cities rich in culture, such as Penang, Kuala Lumpur, and Johor, desirable destinations for ‘Social & Cultural Capital’ and what draws the creative class to live in these cities. Other episodes will feature how the shift to work-from-home modalities has opened up new possibilities for homebuyers looking to live outside of the big city and into properties that are larger and closer to nature, yet still affordable for a better quality of life.

Emily Teh, director of project and property investments at E&O Group, said that with over 20 years of experience in creating notable addresses in Penang, Kuala Lumpur and Johor, they are proud to see the evolution of their sophisticated clientele. 

“Today’s homebuyer is urbane, they are thinking beyond themselves and their families, considering their role in a community–from cradle to care, to how their neighbourhood can enhance their quality of life from a safety, convenience, health and mental wellbeing standpoints. Most importantly, they are looking to navigate in and out of work and play seamlessly to fully enjoy every second of life,” Teh said.
