To expand the rental supply, make homes available to citizens at reasonable prices, and give young people employment possibilities, several ancient estates have been designated for renovation."
"To pave the way for their redevelopment, there is a need to vacate all tenants residing in these Government estates immediately," the notice begins.
The letter indicates that upon completion of the reconstruction, residents who left these estates will have first dibs when it comes to buying or renting a home.
