| FOCUSING ON |
|
| OBJECTIVES |
|
Peninsular Malaysia’s principal legislation regulating housing development is the Housing Development (Control & Licensing) Act 1966 (Act 118) and its subsidiary legislation, whilst the principal legislation regulating strata development is the Strata Titles Act 1985 (Act 318), with the newly minted Strata Management Act 2013 (Act 757) regulating strata living.
Whilst the legislative aspects of both housing development and strata management (with some exceptions) are now on a sound footing, the same cannot be said of our housing policy especially in regard to affordable housing. This One Day event will review the state of the legislation today as well as policy and other structural issues, which the newly elected Pakatan Harapan government had indicated would undergo a comprehensive review and revision.
Malaysia’s newly appointed Housing Minister, Zuraida Kamaruddin, informed the media in May 2018 that “a balanced housing opportunities in urban areas” for the Bumiputra, the minority, indigenous community and foreign nationals would be prioritized so that they can “live in comfortable homes”. In line with Pakatan Harapan’s manifesto, she said that under the proposed revamped housing policy there will be a special housing loan scheme to enable youths to acquire their first homes.
Speaking to reporters in Kuching, Sarawak, on June 21, 2018, she said her Ministry would review the National Housing Policy to make houses more affordable, especially for the B40 group or those with monthly income below RM3,800. She added that she intended to group all housing developers, particularly those dealing with low-cost housing, under one roof in her Ministry. Asked by reporters if her Ministry will be tabling any legislation to nab errant housing developers who purposely raise their prices, Zuraida said she would need to consult the relevant authorities.
She also said that the government would be setting up the National Affordable Housing Council to monitor the construction of affordable housing, coordinate the database and arrange a self-renting scheme for the B40 and M40 groups. In respect of PPR housing, the Minister said in the future their management will be placed under the local authorities. METHODOLOGY WHO SHOULD ATTEND |
