A-G Report: 557 flood victims still waiting for homes http://www.nst.com.my/news/2016/05/146377/g-report-557-flood-victims-still-waiting-homes …

KUALA LUMPUR: The Auditor General’s report chided the project to build permanent houses (RKB) for flood victims as only 40 per cent or 557 of the 1,395 units have not been completed as of March 30, 2016.

According to the AG’s 2015 Series 1 report, due to the National Disaster Management Agency’s (APBN) failure to complete the houses, 557 flood victims and families in five states who were affected by major floods in 2014, are still living in transit homes, tents and other accommodation initiatives.

“So far, 838 (60 percent) of the 1,395 RKB houses have been completed. Audit on the project revealed that Terengganu has a 100 percent record while Perak has only achieved 45 per cent.

“Overall performance on RKB is not satisfactory because 557 flood victims are still staying in transit homes, tents and other forms of accommodation,” said the report tabled in Parliament today.

According to the report, among the main factors for RKB’s poor performance was the procedure in land acquisition from the respective state governments and delay in starting the projects due to difficulties in sourcing for contractors who can build houses at the fixed rate.
