What we found

Faber Heights was first developed by Faber Union in the 1980s and then passed to a Korean contractor for completion, according to a property listing site.

The evidence

Regulatory and legal

Negative
  • In a 1998 High Court decision, Faber Union Sdn Bhd v Yong Ah Nga, a dispute arose after piling and earthworks by Faber Union allegedly caused structural cracks to neighbouring condominiums, and the parties had earlier signed a settlement with remedial works and a structural-safety guarantee.

One more finding
  • In the 1995 Federal Court case Faber Union Sdn Bhd v Chew Nyat Shong, the court held that LAD for late vacant possession runs from the date the booking fee was paid, and the Court of Appeal in 2021 treated that as a pre-HDR precedent.

Corporate continuity

  • A 1990s-era company profile records Faber Union Sendirian Berhad as incorporated in 1971 and still active, with its Bangsar South head office, and reports a 6.73% revenue drop in 2024.

One more finding
  • Faber Union Sdn Bhd was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Faber Development Holdings, which sits under Faber Group Berhad; the parent was renamed UEM Edgenta Berhad around 2015 after its merger with PROPEL and Opus, and its listing continues under Bursa code 1368.
