State governments should offer up their land for development of affordable houses, said Housing and Local Government Minister Zuraida Kamaruddin in Parliament yesterday.
This is under a new public housing policy which will be rolled out by September, she said, and will not affect the pricing of affordable housing or compliance cost.
“The chief ministers have the responsibility to ensure that the people can live comfortably. So [we] will come out with a policy where the state governments should offer their land that is spacious enough and with enough infrastructure around the land,” she said.
