KUALA LUMPUR: The government has injected RM40 million to help revive 14 low-cost housing projects abandoned nationwide between 2009 and March this year, Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Seri Chor Chee Heung said yesterday.

The 14 were among the 177 abandoned projects, of which 100 had since been completed, he said.

“Some 100 abandoned private housing schemes have been completed and the units handed over to the buyers.

“The federal government worked hard to ensure that the abandoned private housing schemes were rehabilitated and the units handed over to the buyers as soon as possible,” he told reporters after visiting the Li Garden Apartments project, an abandoned low-cost housing scheme in Kepong, here. — Bernama
