KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 22 — The government has approved 82,012 units of houses under the 1Malaysia Civil Servants Housing project (PPA1M) nationwide, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak said today.

Najib said when he announced the project, the objective was to ensure civil servants could own their dream house.

"I hope all civil servants grab this opportunity to own a house for the family. Visit PPA1M official website (https://www.ppa1m.gov.my/project/list) to see the list of projects and apply for your house today,” said the prime minister on his Facebook and Twitter psoting today.

In October last year, when tabling the 2016 Budget, Najib said 100,000 units of PPA1M houses, costing between RM90,000 and RM300,000, would be built by 2018. — Bernama
