The Housing and Local Government Ministry will review applications for affordable homes by Bumiputera that were rejected by financial institutions, according to its minister, Zuraida Kamaruddin.
The move, she said, was to ensure they were already house owners and to avoid a glut in unsold affordable houses under the Bumiputera quota.
“The ministry will also meet with the Employees Provident Fund and other financial institutions to find a solution to the problem.
