                                        THE proposed standard plan for low-cost 
                                        houses will not be made compulsory for 
                                        developers but only to serve as a guide, 
                                        Housing and Local Government Minister Dr 
                                        Ting Chew Peh said yesterday. He said 
                                        the plan, to be implemented soon, will 
                                        not be forced upon developers as they 
                                        might want to apply their own ideas.

                                        subsidies

                                        HOUSING developers are expected to lower 
                                        subsidies for low-cost projects when the 
                                        standard layout design is implemented. 
                                        "The six to nine-month expected cut in 
                                        approval time would obviously mean a 
                                        lowering of the subsidy burden which 
                                        developers of low-cost houses had to 
                                        bear all this while," said Richard Lee, 
                                        secretary-general of the Housing 
                                        Developers Association.

                                          THE Cendana-type houses in Taman Seri 
                                          Gombak are safe. This assurance was 
                                          given by the developer, Hillcrest 
                                          Gardens Sdn Bhd, who said the 
                                          allegations by house buyers are 
                                          baseless. "We use fine sand and washed 
                                          fine sand in our project and not as 
                                          alleged by the buyers," said project 
                                          engineer C.H. Beh.

                                          saying but buyers of houses in Taman 
                                          Seri Gombak fear their homes may turn 
                                          out to be "sand" castles. Sand mounds 
                                          at the site were red-brown in colour 
                                          instead of the usual white or pale 
                                          colour and have a high earth content.

                                          THE developer of the 19 houses in 
                                          Taman Putra damaged by erosion says it 
                                          has not given any undertaking to the 
                                          State Government to build replacement 
                                          units for the affected families. A 
                                          spokesman for the developer, MCB 
                                          Holdings Bhd, said the company was not 
                                          liable for the damages as the houses 
                                          had been handed over to the buyers 
                                          more than a year ago.
