"Based on the direction of the Director General of Housing Iwan Suprijanto, if the support from the Directorate General of Housing we prepare regulations to maintain quality. That's what we need. Because after the implementation of the subsidized house price adjustment, it needs to be accompanied by better housing quality," said the Director of Public Houses and Commercial Directorate General of PUPR Housing Fitrah Nur representing the Director General (Dirjen) of Housing Iwan Suprijanto in Jakarta, quoted from Antara, Friday, August 4.
