The SLCHP has also been criticised for its producer "subsidy". Private
developers were given help to reduce their costs. The suggestion by the land authority
(see Nordin, 1986) for house buyers to pay a land premium was further evidence that
SLCHP was producer-oriented: developers gained from the lowest nominal premium
of RM$1 per hectare. By contrast the SLCHP failed to address the consumption side
such as house buyers' accessibility to cheap loans. Jamal (1986) argued that interest
charged for low-cost houses at 10 percent was high. He suggested the authorities
should have considered a repayment scheme (such as extension of the period and
graduated repayment), to help lessen debt servicing burdens for low-income groups.
(Chong, 1986, however, disagreed about a graduated repayment scheme. ) Interestingly,
criticism was levelled against housing developers and market led low-cost housing
production by Napsiah Omar (the then Deputy Minister of Housing and Local
Government). Although incentives and concessions for the SLCHP such as lower
planning standards and increased density had resulted in cost savings, this had not
lowered the price of low-cost houses proportionately. (See Kok Peng, 1989, p. 29)
