The project will involve the construction of 3,000 civil service retirement units to be sold to retired employees through Nay Pyi Taw Development Bank’s Hire Purchase System.

The Nay Pyi Taw Development Committee (NPTDC) will build four-story buildings with a total of 3,000 units within one year. Each building will have 650 square feet two-bedroom apartments with one kitchen and one toilet with an attached bathroom; and simple stairs. The estimated pre-engineering and infrastructure cost is 16 billion kyats, including 10.3 billion kyats for infrastructure such as road and bridge construction, 4.2 billion kyats for water supply and 1.4 billion kyats for electrical wiring.

Upon completion of the proposed housing project, the State-owned Housing Maintenance Division of the NPTDC will perform maintenance works for long-term sustainability with state funding.

Civil servants working in government ministries and agencies of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar are applying for various plots of land to the NPTDC for resettlement in Nay Pyi Taw after retirement. Previously, plots of land were allocated to retired staff but it was found that there were constraints to building houses and either the plots had been resold or unavailable.
