China-based developers roped in to build affordable homes using IBS method

SHAH ALAM: China-based developers have been roped in to offer rent-to-own affordable homes that are built using Industrialised Building System (IBS), says Zuraida Kamaruddin.

The Housing and Local Government Minister said Malaysia had last month inked deals with eight China-based companies to invest in Malaysia, transfer pre-fabrication construction technology, and offer rent-to-own option to buyers.
