00:00Yesterday, for example, 85 houses were allowed to return home.
00:05These 85 houses include more than 115 houses that have been inspected by the Bomber
00:11and are in safe condition.
00:13So I believe that today or tomorrow, more houses or owners can return to their homes
00:20because yesterday we did not allow it because we could not continue
00:24the supply of utilities such as water and electricity in their private homes.
00:29And today I received good news when the Housing and Real Estate Agency
00:34has offered more than 100 units of houses to the victims in the form of Smart Rental.
00:40So if everything goes well, in a week or two, we can place them in the houses
00:48offered by AirBnB and also in Smart Rental.
00:51Later we will announce after I complete the agreement
00:54and also we will bring it to our government
00:58so that we can reduce the pressure on the residents who have to stay in PPS
01:05or Temporary Settlement Centre.
01:07Okay, next question.
01:09Will Smart Rental still have to pay the rent?
01:13We will try to pay part of the rent from the contribution
01:17and also from what we will arrange with the government.
01:22Because there are three steps.
01:24First is the immediate contribution.
01:26When it is completed, we will make a staggered payment.
01:31We will look at the data, documents and we will distribute it.
01:34And after that, we will look at it again in a week
01:39to start placing or placing them out of PPS.
01:43They cannot enter their homes.
01:45Maybe they can enter Temporary Settlement Centre that is prepared
01:48or subsidized by the government.
01:51We will look at the offers that are given.
01:53Not everything we can promise here
01:56because we don't have the asset or the house reserve that is here.
02:03But the ones that are near here, we will offer first.
02:08I also want to see where it was offered.
02:10Where was it? I forgot.
02:12Some were offered by MPHS here in Sepang.
02:15Not far from here.
02:17I understand that there are those who go to school and so on
02:19but that is a temporary offer for them to stay in Temporary Settlement Centre.
02:24What we have so far is an offer from Kota Warisan.
02:27The one from ABNB may be scattered around.
02:31We will verify with ABNB as soon as possible.
