NILAI: The use of industrial building system (IBS) technology in all public affordable housing projects will not only help meet the government’s target to build a million such homes in the next decade but will reduce its dependency on foreign workers.

Housing and Local Government Minister Zuraida Kamaruddin said to achieve the target, all the ministry’s affordable housing projects would be built using the IBS method by 2024.
