Estates worth RM60bil left unclaimed


TANGKAK: Estates of the deceased worth RM60bil have not been claimed by their heirs since independence.

Natural Resources and Environment Deputy Minister Datuk Hamim Samuri blamed this on the heirs’ ignorance and apathy. The figures were obtained through records from the Department of Director General of Lands and Mines (JKPTG) through the Estate Distribution Division (BPP) under the ministry.
