This house at Taman Salak Selatan in Kuala Lumpur is no longer in a habitable state. — YAP CHEE HONG/The Star
THE Federal Territories Land and Mines Office (PPTGWP) is considering invoking the National Land Code 1965 (NLC) as a strategy to force owners to clean up their properties that have become derelict and pose a threat to public health and safety.
Owners of such properties in Kuala Lumpur, both residential and commercial units, who have left their buildings in a dilapidated state risk losing the land where their properties sit, if the land office deems it unsafe to the community.
