 06/12/2004 Malay Mail

SHAH ALAM: Syarikat Perumahan Negara Bhd (SPNB) has been appointed to complete the Bandar Pinggiran Subang medium-cost housing project that was abandoned three years ago, chairman of the State housing, squatter and building management committee Datuk Mohd Mokhtar Ahmad Dahlan said yesterday.

The Federal Government has agreed to allocate RM12 million to enable the construction of the remaining 600 units of houses, he told reporters after attending the signing of an agreement between SPNB and the buyers.

The previous contractor had abandoned the project after completing 80 per cent of construction, and many of the buyers had made payments for the units that cost between RM80,000 and RM90,000 each.

Mokhtar said that the number of abandoned housing projects in Selangor had dropped from 86 last year to 30 as at last month. - Bernama
