Managing Director of Housing Development Corporation HDC Suhail Ahmed says around 1000 land plots of 1,250 square feet from Hulhumale' would be allocated to Male' residents.
Speaking on Raaje TV, Suhail said that the Housing Ministry had ordered HDC to allocate land plots from Hulhumale to Male residents. He said that as per the Government's request, 1000 land plots that are 1,250 sq feet would be allocated to Male' residents.
This comes after President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih had declared that his administration would resolve the housing plight of Malé City residents before the end of its term.
He declared this in his Presidential Address to the parliament earlier this month.
President Solih had said that the government plans to provide over 5,000 land plots in the Greater Malé area to the residents of the city.
He said that the administration’s plan includes the provision of at least 1,000 land plots from Hulhumalé and 2,000 plots from Gulhifalhu, which would commence in June.
He added that another 2,000 land plots would be made available from Giraavaru Falhu.
