IPOH – Stern action will be taken against owners of premises who rent out “grave-like” rooms, said Malaysia’s Local Government Development Ministry.
He added that some of these rented rooms are narrow and small, with no proper ventilation or windows, which might lead to health and fire risks. On Oct 10, news agency Sinar Harian reported that the rooms were initially built for foreign workers but were now mostly rented by university students, private-hire vehicle drivers and food delivery riders.
Mr Nga said several actions could be taken against the irresponsible premises owners, including the structures being demolished and being fined.
