Some trying to hijack Sabah’s poverty housing programme design to make money, says state minister

KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah government has detected attempts by certain quarters trying to “hijack” its trademark design for a hardcore poor housing programme for commercial purposes.

State Rural Development Minister Datuk Jahid Jahim said a search on social media found that this was done by “third parties” on the state’s Rumah Mesra Sabah Maju Jaya (SMJ), previously known as the Hardcore Poor People’s Housing Project or PPRT.
