KUALA LUMPUR: All related parties should work together to make the initiatives announced by the Government for the property sector to work, Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Seri Ong Ka Ting said.

Ong said this in his opening speech at the road show on improving housing delivery system at Sunway Resort Hotel here on Tuesday.

He said all related parties, including the Government, agencies, departments and developers would make a complet team to improve the housing delivery system.

“Without any of the players in the team, the housing delivery system will not be successful.

“Let us all together make this system work,” he said.

Ong, who is MCA president, welcomed the suggestions to make the system more efficient.

On April 13, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi announced the comprehensive changes for the property development sector, as part of his move to improve the public delivery system, at the Conference To Improve The Delivery System of Government Services: To Improve The Development Processes As Well As Property Management.

Among the initiatives announced were the setting up of one-stop centres in every state for housing projects for fast-track approval, replacing the Certificate of Fitness for Occupancy (CFO) with the Certificate of Completion and Compliance (CCC) and giving incentives to developers who adopt the Build-Then-Sell (BTS) concept.
