Samsung C&T, the construction and trading arm of Samsung Group, said Wednesday that it has bagged a contract to construct Star Development in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, by Alpine Return Sdn Bhd, a joint venture between United Malayan Land Bhd and Symphony Life Bhd.

The $310 million project will involve constructing three high-rise towers and a boulevard accommodating restaurants and an entertainment hub. It will also feature Malaysia’s first and only Star Walk of Fame ― a 200 meter-long stretch dedicated to both local and international celebrities that is similar to Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

“We look forward to continuing our support for Malaysia’s growth and development,” said Samsung C&T CEO Choi Chi-hun. “We are certain that despite the challenges, the project will be successful.”
