PUTRAJAYA – The Housing and Local Government Ministry (KPKT) today denied placing an advertisement on applications for affordable housing costing as low as RM30,000 under the Myhome & Mydeposit 2021 Scheme and RM60,000 aid for the building of a house on a purchaser’s own land under the Housing Loan Scheme (SPP).

Instead, the ministry said it had only opened applications for the People’s Housing Programme (PPR), Housing for Civil Servants, PR1MA Housing and Syarikat Perumahan Negara Bhd schemes, it said in a statement today.

The statement was issued following public complaints and inquiries received by the ministry on advertisements that had gone viral recently.

On the price of houses under the PPR Dimiliki programme, the ministry said it is RM35,000 per unit in the peninsula and RM42,000 in Sabah and Sarawak.

Information on housing schemes offered by the ministry can be found at the ministry’s official website, the National Housing Department website and https://teduh.kpkt.gov.my/. – Bernama, July 12, 2021
