Committee of Supply 2022 debate, Day 5: Chong Kee Hiong on PPVC adoption
Why is prefabricated prefinished volumetric construction (PPVC) only required for selected building sites? What are the constraints preventing wider use and will the Ministry of National Development consider speeding up its adoption? These questions were raised by MP Chong Kee Hiong in Parliament on Tuesday (Mar 8). He outlined the benefits of PPVC, ranging from improvements in productivity, sustainability and on-site safety, to a reduction in disamenities.
