ALOR SETAR, Oct 28- The dream of a family in Kampung Teluk Bagan to have a more comfortable house finally came true, when they received a new house under the Prosperous People's Housing Programme (PPRS) of Kota Setar District.

The symbolic handing over of the house was completed by the Director of the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development (KKDW) of Kedah/Perlis/Pulau Pinang, Mohd Nizam Mokhtar.

The recipient of the house, Anas Abdullah, 42, previously rented a house in the same village.

With four growing children, Anas and his wife needed a more comfortable home.

Anas, who works as a surveyor's assistant part-time, experiences the effects of the development of modern technology which causes his income to be affected.

The PPRS construction which started on Feb. 20, 2024, was fully completed on July, 9, 2024.

It is hoped that the gift of the new house can improve the standard of living of the family, and provide comfort to those who deserve it.
