“This is our way of showing gratitude to Government staff for their dedication,” he said at the launch of PPA1M scheme in Bukit Jalil yesterday.
A similar scheme had been launched in Putrajaya involving more than 15,000 units under Phases 1 and 2.

Najib stressed that the Govern­ment would not be making further payments for this project because the land had been awarded to the developer, which would use profits from development on part of the land to build the houses.

“As the Government wants its staff to enjoy comfortable living that comes with good amenities, a moratorium of 10 years is imposed before they can sell the units.

“We hope that with their housing needs settled, civil servants can continue to give their best to serve the people,” he added.

The Government has earmarked the construction of 80,000 units of houses by 2020 in Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya and Labuan to meet the growing need for housing in the Federal Territories.
