The Penang government has offered affordable housing to 21 families in Kampung Makau Suah, Sungai Jawi, who were previously worried that the land they have occupied for over 70 years would be reclaimed by its owner.
“As a mediator, the state government is seeking a resolution by suggesting they purchase affordable homes in Taman Puteri Gunung, owned by the Penang government. Also present were State Housing and Environment Committee chairman Datuk Seri S. Sundarajoo and Pakatan Harapan candidate for the Sungai Bakap by-election, Dr Joohari Ariffin.
“If the residents agree to purchase the offered homes, we will expedite the ownership process. An agreement will be drafted with the landowner and the Penang Housing Board , taking about three months to be finalised. Once the residents receive their keys, they can move in,” he said.
