财政部副部长拿督奥曼阿兹指出，基于国内家庭的平均收入，价位约16万5,060千令吉的房子被列为可负担范围内的房屋。

拿督奥曼阿兹是于近期的2017年有关可负担房屋的财政预算案小组会议中发表该声明，此会议是续2017年财政预算案咨询会议进行。

尽管政府已稳步增加提供可负担房屋的举措，但目前的建房水平尚未能够满足这一方面的需求。

在2014年，国内仅有21%的住宅发展项目的推出价位介于25万令吉或以下。

拿督奥曼阿兹表示，相关数据是因为发展商偏于建设较高档的房产，而单位的平均售价多数为50万令吉以上。

拿督奥曼阿兹还说明，新房供应的增长速度和家庭数量的净增长率之间的差距在近五年来显然更为分明，明显反映了可负担房屋的供应短缺。

I still don't see it yet. Government has announced affordable homes for Klang Valley region but I still don't see any of it. =(

The government seems to has set affordability standard at a cap of RM300k. Hence developers will will build their products at max value. Hence most affordable projects are at this price range (which is already hard to find at the normal market due to land cost).  

There are actually quite a number of affordable housing, BUT apparently it's almost impossible for you to get due to the long waiting list and also the 'bias-ness' in certain races.

Actually got a few, one of it is in Bandar Seri Coalfields, called Hibiscus. 2-sty terrace selling at around 200k, but need to apply, and the location very out of place, almost Kuala Selangor d. And I think there are many more but I can't remember.

The problem with current affordable housing scheme, is most if not all eligible buyers are required to put down a 10% downpayment (no rebates given) which is a also a challenge for most

@ivanyap, that's true. For example, if the property is RM200-300k, not many buyers for this scheme (due to low income) might have RM20-30k to pay for the downpayment. If he / she has that amount, I guess they might not be eligible for this anyway??? :P
