KUALA LUMPUR: Prefabricated parts will be used in all Government projects in a bid to reduce the dependence on foreign workers, Works Minister Datuk Mohd Zin Mohamed said.
He said the move would begin with projects under the Public Works Department, which are worth RM6.9bil.
The use of prefabricated parts was part of the Industrial Building System (IBS) which would be adopted for all Govern ment projects.
“The Government has ordered all government agencies carrying out development and people’s housing projects to use at least 70% IBS content in those projects,” he told a press conference at his office after the weekly Cabinet meeting yesterday.
Mohd Zin said to ensure that the IBS was implemented, a National Secretariat on IBS has been incorporated under the Works Ministry.
The secretariat would coordinate, monitor and help all parties, including the private sector, in implementing the IBS, he said.

yes.. that is probabaly true because some of my friend at CIDB (IBS Centre) now reporting a weekly IBS progress and activities conducted by CIDB, IBS Steering commitee and IBS Technical commitee to both KKR and KSU. Hoping to more support from JKR in gov. projects perhaps via SPNB.
Yes,from what I heard, all government projects must use IBS. It will be interesting to see the development of IBS after this.
Kindly been informed that 'Slot Galeri Perdana RTM 1' will be discussing on IBS development in Malaysia from 28/10 to 31/10 at 8.45pm RTM 1. Sharing is caring.
