摘要:The objective of this paper is to review the major concern on urban poverty, housing needs and housing issues in Penang, Malaysia. Issues on home ownership, policies, and program had been addresses. In addition, some feedback from the high level person related to housing industries had been reviewed, analyzed and been discussed in this paper too. The study found that a large number of respondents from the target group still do not have home ownership of their own, and there is a significant relationship between monthly incomes with home ownership by the target group. From the perspective of social work, a better policy, and better program need to be implement. This is important in order to ensure the revolution of housing development in Penang will fit in the Penangites for a short term and even for the long term period.
