PUTRAJAYA, May 30 — The Housing and Local Government Ministry (KPKT) has successfully rehabilitated 20,489 units of private housing involving 177 projects with RM14.89 billion in gross development value (GDV) from January 1 to April 30 this year.
Deputy Minister Datuk Aiman Athirah Sabu said the projects include 163 that obtained Certificates of Completion and Compliance (CCC), 11 projects that transitioned from “sick” status to “progressing smoothly”, and three abandoned projects.
During this period, the Task Force for Sick and Abandoned Private Housing Projects (TFST) identified 205 delayed and 438 sick private housing projects, while the number of abandoned private housing projects remained at 115.
“All these projects have a combined GDV of RM189.67 billion. Although the statistics for delayed and sick private housing projects are dynamic, they show a decreasing trend,” she said in a statement today.
Athirah said the TFST agenda, which focuses on unlicensed abandoned private housing projects, will continue as there are 175 unlicensed abandoned private housing projects recorded in Peninsular Malaysia as of April 30.
“KPKT is ready to collaborate with relevant stakeholders and remains committed to addressing the issue of sick and abandoned private housing projects across the country,” she said.
