JAKARTA. The government released its 13th economic policy package on Wednesday, set to provide affordable housing for low-income people with simplified procedures. Coordinating Economic Minister Darmin Nasution said only 78,7% of families in the country owned their own home, including 31 million families who owned more than one house. Ironically, 11,8 million families did not own housing and were likely to be tenants for the rest of their lives. “Meanwhile, developers are reluctant to build affordable housing complexes, thus the government must make a breakthrough to provide housing for low-income people in residential complexes each measuring 5 hectares,” he said at a press conference in Jakarta.
