Civil servants will have more opportunities to purchase homes in line with salary increase, says Rehda president

KUALA LUMPUR: The Real Estate and Housing Developers’ Association Malaysia (Rehda) believes that the salary hike for civil servants this December could lead to more opportunities for the group to purchase properties.

Rehda president Datuk NK Tong said while the rising cost of living and building materials continue to affect affordability for people and developers, news of civil servants’ salary increases might have provided some relief.
