JOHOR BARU: Affordable housing issue is one of the most pressing and concerning problems for Malaysians especially in major cities in the country.
Tebrau MP Jimmy Puah Wee Tse said it was getting more difficult and frustrating for the people to acquire a house as the cost of housing has gone up every year.
However, it did not go well with several politicians including Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor who has criticised Nga’s move. He added there were existing policies such as PR1MA , People’s Housing Programme among many that had provided a roof over the head for Malaysians especially during these challenging times.
Puah said there was no shame in admitting that the Singapore Housing Development Board policy was one of the most successful in the world.
