Speaking at the launch of the PR1MA Sarawak Exhibition today, the prime minister promised that more PR1MA projects would be built in the state.

"Vote BN, so can get votes in the housing scheme," he said, adding that the government was good and working very hard.

"You must support your chief minister Tok Nan (Adenan) as he is the closest friend of the federal government."

He said it was important to maintain the good relationship between the federal and state governments to ensure more housing projects were carried out.

He said this was part of BN’s promise in the last general election to build one million affordable homes and to increase the wealth of the people.

PR1MA had approved a total of eight projects, comprising 9,185 units of quality affordable homes in Sarawak. All these houses are 20% cheaper than the market price, priced below RM300,000. – March 12, 2016.
