Amirudin Hands Over Idaman Bukit Jelutong Homes To 1,260 Owners
Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said the project, developed by Gagasan Nadi Cergas Berhad in collaboration with Permodalan Negeri Selangor Bhd (PNSB), is part of the state government's ongoing commitment to enhancing the well-being of the people by providing high-quality, comfortable, and well-equipped affordable homes.
. He said the condominium-style affordable housing is among the highest-specification housing ever implemented, making Selangor the only state government to offer affordable housing below the national threshold price of RM250,000 per unit.
"The specifications we set are quite high...each unit comes with a kitchen cabinet, wardrobe, refrigerator, water heater, air conditioning, television, and two parking spaces.
"Although these specifications exceed those of previous public housing projects, we have proven that they can be delivered at a selling price still below the national threshold of RM250,000 per unit," he said at a press conference after the Idaman Bukit Jelutong key handover ceremony here today.
The ceremony was also attended by State Housing and Culture Committee chairman Datuk Borhan Aman Shah, PNSB Chief Executive Officer Raja Ahmad Shahrir Iskandar Raja Salim and Gagasan Nadi Cergas Berhad Group chairman Dr Muhamad Fuad Abdullah.
Amirudin said the handover of keys to Idaman Bukit Jelutong homeowners marked another important milestone in the state government's efforts to address housing ownership issues.
He said the initiative, along with several other planned residential projects, was aimed at fulfilling the dream of home ownership for all Selangor residents, especially the youth and families.
With the delivery of 1,260 units today, Amirudin said a total of 6,079 homes from similar projects in Hulu Langat, Kuala Langat, and Sepang have now been handed over to buyers.

Government estimates 4pct of MSMEs to be involved in e-invoicing
KUALA LUMPUR: The government estimates that four per cent of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) will be involved in the implementation of e-invoicing when mandatory compliance begins on July 1, 2025. Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister, Datuk Ewon Benedick, said the projection is based on the current progress of e-invoicing, which, as of July 31, recorded 417 million e-invoices issued by 84,000 taxpayers, including MSMEs. In 2024, Malaysia recorded 1.08 million MSMEs, comprising 761,897 microenterprises (70.1 per cent), 306,764 small enterprises (28.2 per cent), and 17,725 medium enterprises (1.6 per cent). He was responding to a question from Datuk Ahmad Amzad Mohamed @ Hashim (PN–Kuala Terengganu) in the Dewan Rakyat today on the percentage of entrepreneurs expected to be involved in e-invoicing. Ewon said the government is aware of MSMEs' concerns about compliance costs, including the need to invest in accounting software, staff training, and the risk of penalties for non-compliance. In this regard, the annual sales value threshold for e-invoice exemption has been raised to RM500,000, while the Inland Revenue Board (IRB) will continue its briefing programmes to raise awareness and understanding among entrepreneurs. "IRB has also assured that the e-invoice system provided by the agency is free if used directly by taxpayers," he added.
