Global
Properties in partnership with Swami India International have recently launched
the Barakah Estate in Bakoteh.
Delivering
his official launch statement, Musa Bah, deputy Mayor of Kanifing Municipal
Council said land is becoming a problem and Global Properties and Swami India
International are helping to create easy access to land by individuals and
families.
“The
manner in which this complex is built will surely improve the quality of the
people. As a council, we are trying to see such development in our
municipality, as our aspiration is to see our people live in dignified life.”
Saul
Frazer, chief executive officer of Global Properties said since they started
operation some twelve years ago, they have been delivering innovative property
solution to solve housing challenges by operating a diversifying portfolio
He
said along the way they have realized that partnership is the key in
strengthening their objective and accomplishing their goals.
Mr
Frazer added that without their partner -Swami India International- they would
have not achieve their goals in the last ten years. “Looking back, we have
built two of the most successful and popular estates in the country such as
Paradise Estate in Old Yundum and Paradise View in Salaji.”
According
to him, the demand for this type of houses continues to increase, as more and
more people seek for quality and affordable accommodation. “Our desire to
satisfy this demand led us to our current projects here in Bakoteh,” he said.
Khimji
Pindoriya, chief executive officer of Swami India International explained that
the launching of Barakah Estate is another development that the company has
registered over the years. He said looking back at the beginning, it was their
technical skills and experience from their Indian and Gambian counterparts that
led to the development estates at Old Yundum and Salaji.
Mariama
Ndour Njie, permanent secretary, ministry of Local Government and Lands said
the project marks another success in the quality and partnership between Global
Properties and Swami India International, adding that the two companies are
working hard to build quality and prestige in The Gambian Real Estate
Sector.
“This
project is partly complementing government efforts to bridge the housing
deposit in the country, but most importantly the employment of youths in the
construction sector who are in need of the experience in this sector.”
