Abstract
Housing projects are classified as "abandoned" by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government (MHLG) when there is no activity at the project site, continuously, for more than six months after the expected date of delivery of vacant possession.

Abandonment of housing project is considered one of the most common and serious problems hit the Malaysian construction industry from the number and value of the affected projects. It not only affects buyers directly but also all parties involved with the project as well as the public and the government. Sabah and Sarawak are the two states in Malaysia and housing projects are handled by the Sabah and Sarawak Local Government and Housing Ministry (LGHM) unlike in Peninsular Malaysia which is managed by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government (MHLG).
