Another issue that undermines the success of meeting housing needs is the problem of abandoned housing
projects (Ministry of Finance’s Valuation and Property Service Department, 2009). Owning a house is
every person’s dream, but their dreams have turned into nightmares after the homes they have bought are
left uncompleted. There are also evidences of problems created by errant house builders for the house
buyers. These problems range from the irritating ones like leaking roofs and uneven flooring to more
serious ones like sub-standard house quality and unpleasant neighborhoods.
The paper addresses the questions: How successful is the government in meeting the housing need of
Malaysians? If not, what are possible ways to achieve sustainable housing provision in the country? In
order to answer these questions, the next section of this paper is to look at the development of housing
policies in Malaysia for the past 20 years, and then followed by the roles and challenges of private and
public house builders in housing provision. Next, recommendations are provided to address the housing
provision issues. The last section of this paper presents conclusions regarding sustainable housing
provision in Malaysia.
