Delay Urban Renewal Bill over unresolved flaws, says grassroots leader


Perak MCA New Village Affairs Bureau chief Jimmy Loh

IPOH: The second reading of the Urban Renewal Bill should be delayed as unresolved flaws in the draft could jeopardise housing security and erode public trust, says an MCA grassroots leader.

Perak MCA New Village Affairs Bureau chief Jimmy Loh said while the party is not against development or urban renewal, it opposes the hasty tabling of a Bill that could harm small property owners if passed in its current form.
