Key points
- Transport Minister Anthony Loke said the standardised rate replaced the various rental rates previously imposed, benefiting 53 existing tenants comprising 49 places of worship and four schools.
- He said the RM1 monthly rate, rather than allowing the tenants to occupy the land rent-free, was intended to ensure that the places of worship and schools remained lawful tenants while providing them with greater certainty and protection.
- On the terms of the tenancy agreement, Loke said the initial rental period would be three years, with two options to extend it for a further three years each (3+3+3), allowing tenants to enjoy the RM1 monthly rate for a maximum of nine years.
