Another move to help the B40 get homes


PETALING JAYA: A National Housing Fund that will help B40 families buy their first home could be on the cards, says Local Government Development Minister Nga Kor Ming.

This would be a new concept to help these families own houses, and among the proposals was that the government provide the 10% down payment. Nga said this was still in the planning stage and there were matters to be ironed out before putting the plan into action.
