KUALA TERENGGANU: Traditional know-how and local technology and could be the answer to building affordable houses quickly, says newly-appointed Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Raja Kamarul Bahrin Shah (pic)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Terengganu Pakatan Harapan chairman, who is also a Senator, said when doing architectural studies, he used to learn about how traditional houses in Terengganu and Kelantan were built using pre-fabrication methods.<\/p>\n

“We can study these methods and probably apply it to solve the affordable housing problem.<\/p>\n

“It will also open up job opportunities for traditional carpenters who excel in these methods,” he said when met at the Kuala Terengganu Bypass construction site.<\/p>\n

Raja Kamarul was accompanying Deputy Works Minister Mohd Anuar Mohd Tahir to look at progress of the construction work.<\/p>\n

He said housing is one of the critical problems faced by Malaysians \u2013 especially in Terengganu and Kelantan \u2013 as many houses are priced beyond the people’s means.<\/p>\n

“This is a chance for us to come up with a special plan to solve the problem and this will require cooperation from both state and Federal governments,” he said.<\/p>\n

Raja Kamarul said discussions with state governments were needed, especially when it involves acquiring land to build the houses.<\/p>\n

“We need to acquire land to build affordable houses and this comes under the jurisdiction of state governments,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
