Provide more affordable quality homes – Musa
BEAUFORT: Chief Minister Tan Sri Musa Aman has called on housing developers to take on the responsibility of providing more affordable and quality homes for the people.
He said this was necessary to ensure the people were not burdened and able to enjoy a more prosperous life, as well as opening employment opportunities to the locals.
“We want all the players in the housing sector to be responsible for ensuring that houses built are not only affordable, but also of good quality so that it is not a financial burden to the buyers,” he said when launching the District PR1MA Housing here yesterday.
Musa also reminded the developers to complete their respective housing projects on time.
According to him, to date there were 27,000 units of houses being built nationwide by PR1MA, and urged the people to continue to give their support and mandate to the existing government to realize the housing program for the people.
Among those present were Women, Family and Community Development Deputy Minister Datuk Azizah Moh Dun, Assistant Minister to the Chief Minister Datuk Mohd Arifin Mohd Arif, Umno Beaufort division head Datuk Isnin Aliasnih, and District Officer Mohd Shahid Othman.
Meanwhile, in another event there, Musa reckoned that the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) should organise more community-centric programs in the state.
According to him, such programs will give a special touch as well as enhance the knowledge of the people on the field of duty of the country’s security forces.
“People need to be clear on the tasks of our security forces that allow them (people) to live peacefully,” he added.
