Abstract

This study focuses on the challenges of Bayan Lepas residents in obtaining affordable housing in Bayan Lepas, Penang. Affordable housing is frequently characterized as suitable for low and medium incomes. However, Bayan Lepas, Penang's housing situation demonstrates that high-end housing is more expensive than inexpensive housing. As a result, Bayan Lepas locals struggle to possess their own homes. This study aims to determine the residents' challenges to obtaining affordable housing in Bayan Lepas, Pulau Pinang. Fifty heads of families from low- and middle-income groups in the Bayan Lepas area were chosen to fulfil the study's goals. Semi-structured interview techniques are used for data collection. The qualitative data is next subjected to thematic content analysis. This study identified six (6) challenges to obtaining affordable housing for the Bayan Lepas people. The high cost of living, the difficulty in getting bank loans, the high down payments, expensive homes, the low income, and the problem in qualifying for affordable housing are a few challenges. Hence, it is suggested that the local government take a more active role in raising the ability of Penang's citizens and the number of affordable homes on the island, particularly in the Bayan Lepas region.
槟城巴扬勒帕斯经济适用房居民面临的挑战
本研究的重点是槟城巴扬勒帕斯居民在获得经济适用房方面面临的挑战。经济适用房通常被认为适合中低收入人群。然而,槟城的住房情况表明,高端住房比廉价住房更贵。因此,巴扬勒帕斯当地人很难拥有自己的房子。本研究旨在确定槟榔屿Bayan Lepas居民获得经济适用房的挑战。来自巴扬勒帕斯地区低收入和中等收入群体的50位家长被选中来实现研究的目标。半结构化访谈技术用于数据收集。定性数据接下来要进行专题内容分析。本研究确定了巴彦勒帕斯人获得经济适用房的六(6)个挑战。高昂的生活成本、难以获得银行贷款、高昂的首付款、昂贵的住房、低收入以及经济适用房的资格问题都是一些挑战。因此,建议地方政府在提高槟城市民的能力和岛上负担得起的房屋数量方面发挥更积极的作用,特别是在巴扬勒帕斯地区。
