KUCHING: Odd-job worker Shukeri Abdul Wahed and his family of seven have been living uncomfortably in a makeshift house for over a decade in Kampung Buntal, near here.

The family gradually improved the house using recycled and new materials over the years and applied for housing assistance many years ago and had been waiting since.
