Shifting construction to meet nation’s housing needs


Speedy delivery: Rumah Selangorku Jade Hills, Kajang, will be ready for handover this September.

PETALING JAYA: Top on the list of the new government’s agenda is streamlining and synchronising affordable housing supply and demand mismatch, as well as resolving house ownership and affordability issues.

These, coupled with the need to revolutionise the construction sector to make it more efficient, safe and less reliant on foreign labour, are reasons why the Industrialised Building System (IBS) is being touted as the new way of building, a trend already very much evident in advanced economies around the world.
