The construction of the houses is under the Yayasan Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Housing Assistance Scheme for the year 2025-2026.
The ceremony took place at Lots LTS16/2025 and LTS17/2025, Simpang 185-82-51, Kampong Katok, Jalan Tungku, Mukim Gadong ‘A’, Brunei-Muara District. The assistance housing construction project is one of Yayasan’s contributions towards providing safer, more comfortable, and proper homes for underprivileged individuals and families, including those previously living in unsafe and dilapidated conditions.
The provision of housing assistance is also in line with the aim of establishing Yayasan in the field of welfare and supports one of its strategic goals: Balancing Care for Basic Needs. Proper housing not only serves as physical shelter, but also serves as an essential foundation for building healthier, more organised, and prosperous family lives.
The ceremony began with the recitation of Surah Al-Fatihah, followed by the call to prayer and Selawat, led by Mosque Affairs Officer at Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Hajah Saleha Mosque Mohamad Adham Hashim. The event continued with the piling commencement ceremony for the housing project, led by the guest of honour, Minister at the Prime Minister’s Office and Minister of Defence II Pehin Datu Lailaraja Major General Dato Paduka Seri Awang Halbi Mohd Yussof as chairman of the Yayasan Board of Directors, and concluded with a Doa Selamat.

The housing construction project is expected to be fully completed by October 2026.
The design of the assistance houses features a more modern concept and aligns with current technological developments in low-cost housing construction. The construction methods used are also expected to allow the projects to be completed within a shorter period of time. – Borneo Bulletin/ANN
