JERTIH, Dec 28 — The Ministry of Finance through Syarikat Perumahan Negara Berhad (SPNB) will consider allowing the construction of Rumah Mesra Rakyat for flood victims nationwide.
Deputy Finance Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan said those whose houses were completely destroyed by the floods could apply for the housing programme under the SPNB.
“Tomorrow I will get detailed data from SPNB about the assistance needed by flood victims whose houses were completely destroyed.
“For example, like in previous years, flood victims who have lost their houses due to floods in Kampung La have applied for the Rumah Mesra Rakyat assistance and they were assisted by local community leaders,” he told reporters after handing over aid to 200 flood victims at Sekolah Kebangsaan Kampung La in Hulu Besut near here today.
Ahmad also welcomed other parties to come forward to help the affected flood victims build new homes.
