Four days earlier, the board of directors of Vinhomes (HoSE: VHM), a real estate arm of conglomerate Vingroup, announced the transfer of its entire stake in Lighthouse 1 to serve its business operations.
CVH Nachos 1 Pte. Ltd. is believed to have close ties with Singapore’s CapitaLand Group, as its headquarters at 168 Robinson Road #30-01 Capital Tower in Singapore shares the same address as CapitaLand's.
The CEO and legal representative of Lighthouse 1 is Low Mun Kit Alwin, who also serves as the legal representative for the Hanoi branch of CapitaLand Real Estate Management (Vietnam) Ltd., a subsidiary of CapitaLand.
Low holds a 50% stake in Lighthouse 1, while Lim Qin Jie Jazreel holds the remaining 50%. These individuals also represent capital in Anh Sao Commercial Development and Trading LLC (Anh Sao), the investor behind the Lumi Hanoi apartment project located in the The Sun area of Vinhomes Smart City, a Vinhomes project in Hanoi’s Nam Tu Liem district.
CapitaLand is also behind The Senique Hanoi, a project within the Vinhomes Ocean Park urban area developed by Vinhomes. Lighthouse 1 itself has its headquarters located in the Dai An Ecological Urban Area project, another Vinhomes development in Hung Yen.
