Penang will get 20,000 affordable houses and a monorail train service, should Barisan Nasional (BN) regain the state, announced Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak at Universiti Sains Malaysia during the Promises Fulfilled Tour last weekend.
He revealed that 10,000 units will be developed by Perumahan Rakyat 1Malaysia (PR1MA) Berhad while the rest will be built by the Penang Regional Development Authority and government-linked firms Syarikat Perumahan Nasional Berhad and JKP Sdn Bhd.
“As the Government, we will fulfil this promise to the people because we are bound by our word,” he said during the launch of the nationwide online PR1MA registration.
“Register (online) for the PR1MA homes and we will conduct transparent and sincere balloting (for the units).”
Najib also promised that these houses will cost significantly less than the market price, reported Asia One.
“If the market price is RM500,000, we will sell at RM300,000 to Penangites. This is my promise to all of you... (We are) not like Pakatan Rakyat that failed to fulfil its promise to the people of Kampung Buah Pala that their village would not be demolished.”
“The state government has not built even a single low-cost house here (according to the Auditor General’s Report 2010) so who can you trust Barisan or Pakatan?”
Moreover, the state will also get a monorail like the LRT in Kuala Lumpur to provide good public transportation for Penangites.
