LETTER | The shortage of affordable housing is one of the typical issues haunting Malaysians. The availability of better-paying jobs and various business opportunities in the urban areas has caused rural-to-urban migration to ever-expanding cities in Malaysia.
As the urban population continuously grows, land scarcity has caused property prices to rise, making housing less affordable for most urban dwellers, especially for below 40 percent (B40) households.
Recently, the Better Malaysia Foundation (BMF) has proposed to develop apartments in the centre of the city with a sale price of RM120,100 to RM300,000 with an area from 450 sq ft to 900 sq ft. The development plan s primary purpose is for affordable housing with a single vision - to help the government achieve the homeownership aspirations of B40 groups.
