S’gor govt urged to create reporting system to avoid scams in selling bumi lots

SHAH ALAM: A Selangor government backbencher today proposed the creation of a housing sales reporting system between the Selangor Housing and Property Board (LPHS) and housing developers, which to be updated weekly by the developers, to avoid scams in selling Bumiputra lots to non-Bumiputras.

Michelle Ng Mei Sze (PH-Subang Jaya) said the system practised in Singapore needs to be adopted as there had been reports alleging that non-Bumiputera buyers who purchased Bumiputera lots had to pay penalties because they were deceived by developers who did not disclose the true status of the lots sold to them.
