REFERRING to a requests by a Sabah Housing as well as Real Estate Developers Association to a Sabah State Government to revert a land leases for country leases as well as locale leases to a strange 999 tenure, actually, in actuality a supervision can approve land leases for a reign of 999 year, especially if a strange master title of a land already has a reign of 999 years.
This has been done prior to but any need for changes to a law. There is no need for any delay because it is only a make a difference either a supervision wants to honour a 999 reign or not.
The Chief Minister was reported to have pronounced which a Cabinet needs to discuss first because a 999-year franchise requires legislation. In fact, in my Likas constituency, Taman Seputeh with 230 units of houses were released land titles with 999-year franchise by a afterwards Chief ! Minister , Datuk Yong Teck Lee in 1997.
The premium charged per residence was RM 1000 as well as annual quit rent during RM 90. This in accord with rate has made it probable for a residence owners to own a houses after a deserted plan was revived by a afterwards State government.
What is disturbing in recent years is which owners of land with 999-year leases were denied their rights when their land leases were cut short to only 99 years after their land was subdivided? It is unfair to cut short a strange reign of 999 years to 99 years.
The people turn some-more worried when they look during a Kolombong shop houses box which has been watchful for multiform years to replenish their land tit! les whic h have been about to expire soon.
The interest for prolongation was submitted in 2008 to a Chief Minister by a Datuk Sari Tan with a large headlines coverage. But until now, there is no headlines of a application, not even for 99 lease.
Without an prolongation of their land leases, their shops turn worthless, banks exclude to lend income for renovations as well as insurance companies turn reluctant to protection a properties.
Shop owners likewise have been scared to correct their shop houses as a supervision competence arbitrarily turn a brand new owners of a shops once a land leases have expired. ! Yesterda y, a little land owner during Kampong Sembulan Laut have protested during a warding off of a supervision to replenish their land leases which have been due to expire in 7 to 20 years' time.
With so many land grabs incidents occurring all over Sabah, whereby locals have been being evicted from their prevalent lands, it is obvious which people have been endangered which they will lose their homes as well as properties in a future.
We have been worried when a Chief Minister pronounced which his cabinet will look in to a issue. This is because this cabinet has taken a lot of time to look in to issues after issues but any result like a definition of natives, misery eradication programmes as well as Borneonisation of a polite service.
