Some developers in Negeri Sembilan not required to build affordable houses worth RM80,000

SEREMBAN (April 11): Housing developers in Negeri Sembilan undertaking projects of two hectares or less are not required to build affordable houses worth RM80,000 per unit.

"We have discussed with Negeri Sembilan housing associations that those developing land of two hectares or less are not required to build affordable houses worth RM80,000 and the bumiputera quota is 30%, not 50%," Bernama reported Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan as saying today.

He was replying to a question from Chai Tong Chai (PKR-Chuah) at the Negeri Sembilan state legislative assembly sitting here today.          

Mohamad said the flexibility given by the state government was well received by developers, which enabled the system to be streamlined properly, Bernama reported.
