New low-rent housing projects planned for civil servants nationwide, says Anwar
摘要
马来西亚总理安瓦尔·易卜拉欣宣布，政府计划为公务员建设低租金住房，以改善该群体的福利。安瓦尔表示，在访问槟城、霹雳、柔佛和森美兰等州时，发现公务员面临严重的租房问题。尽管政府已将公务员薪资提高15%至30%，但在新山、吉隆坡、芙蓉和怡保等地，租金上涨仍难以覆盖。政府已确定使用国有土地进行开发，将尽快推进该项目。
DENGKIL, June 26 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the government will develop housing for civil servants with lower rental rates as an effort to look after the welfare of the group.
Anwar, who is also the finance minister, said this is because he found that civil servants were facing serious problems with house rent during his visit to several states such as Penang, Perak, Johor and Negeri Sembilan.
“We will develop housing for civil servants with cheap rent.
“So it will not burden the family. These are the steps we are taking, we will expedite it,” he told reporters after performing Friday prayers at Jameatus Solehah Mosque here today.
Anwar said that although the government had increased the salaries of civil servants, the issue of increasing rental rates is still a problem in several states.
“Even though we increase their salaries by between 15 (to) a maximum of 30 per cent, sometimes in Johor Bahru, Kuala Lumpur, Seremban, Ipoh, they cannot cover the increased rent,” he said.
He said government-owned land had been identified to be used for the development of the housing.
“Whether for customs or the police, as soon as there is space, we will develop housing for civil servants,” he said.
Earlier, Anwar greeted about 1,200 congregants who performed Friday prayers at the mosque, led by Muhammad Asyraf Kamaluddin. — Bernama
