KUALA LUMPUR (April 30): Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor yesterday said that affordable homes initiatives such as the People’s Housing Programme (PPR) could be rebranded to give them a fresh image and shift people’s sentiment about such properties.
"We don’t want the houses to be called cheap house (rumah murah), perhaps ‘rumah rakyat ceria or council home, so the occupants will not feel they are staying in cheap houses.
“Furthermore, the houses are now bigger, measuring at least 750 sq ft, not like before, which was 500 sq ft,” Bernama reported him as telling the media after officiating the ground breaking ceremony for a multi-storey car park at Precinct 9 Putrajaya yesterday.
The minister said improved facilities are like installing closed-circuit television camera “to bring positive changes, including psychologically, for the occupants”.
