If there is power supply we can boost that 50 per cent of our national problems are solved. Money available right now should be injected into housing and power.

On the government’s activities on road, power and housing, they are still working on the budget, when I saw the proposed budget, it is obvious that there is need for a re-think on putting more into capital project, especially on works and housing, the government should move in any  way they can to produce houses for rent,” he said.

Do you agree?
