Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming announced the commencement of restoration activities for the Residensi Hektar Gombak development. The project encompasses 2,400 residential units and represents one of Malaysia's most significant abandoned housing developments. Officials secured RM125 million in new funding to restart construction after the project remained dormant since 2018. The government expects contractors to complete all work by 2027 under the Malaysia Madani initiative.
The minister established a specialized task force to address similar abandoned private housing developments across the nation. Authorities will blacklist the original developers and their board members if they fail to deliver completed units by the deadline. Government efforts have successfully revived 1,127 abandoned housing projects affecting 135,211 purchasers. These recovered developments represent a combined value of RM106.48 billion and demonstrate the administration's commitment to resolving housing issues through coordinated action.
