GEORGE TOWN: Six remaining "sick" Perbadanan PR1MA Malaysia (PR1MA) projects will be completed by the end of the year.

Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming said the six projects are located in Melaka (2), Kedah (2), Negeri Sembilan (1) and Kelantan (1).

Nga said 18 of the "sick projects" he inherited after he took office have been completed.

"They (remaining 'sick projects') will be out of the ICU and 'healthy' again," he told a press conference here.

"We will make sure there are no more 'sick projects' after this."

Earlier, Nga handed over keys to unit owners of Residensi Bukit Gelugor, a PR1MA project.

It is the largest PR1MA project in Penang, housing 1,218 units, a surau, a playground and a community hall.

The project was completed on August 22, a year ahead of schedule.

Nga said as of August, PR1Ma had 88 projects nationwide, involving 54,137 units.

A total of 61 projects (41,321 units) have been completed while 27 projects (12,816 units) are in the midst of construction and planning.
