House pricing policy has helped stimulate consumption by low-income families.
The price ceiling per unit, set by the government from 1982, made housing seem
within the reach of the poor. In public low-cost housing (PAKR), the low price was
supported by soft interest financing under a hire purchase scheme. This scheme did not
apply in private low-cost housing where buyers had to raise loans from banks at market
rates. A study by the Ministry of Housing (1993c), showed consequent differences in
affordability and monthly repayments. Nurizan's study (1986) of City Hall Kuala
Lumpur low-cost housing, for resettlement of squatter families, indicated an average
monthly repayment under the hire purchase scheme of only 12.7 percent of mean total
family income. Nonetheless, despite low-cost and low payment schemes, a study by
the Urban Development Authority (UDA) in 1984, estimated that at least 80 percent of
the lower income group could not afford the cheapest government built low-cost
houses (PAKR) (Kok Peng, 1989).
