This has always been aligned with Goal 8.5 which is to achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all women and men, young people and persons with disabilities, and equal pay for work of equal value. Besides, the purpose of H.O.P.E helps to promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities, decent job creation, entrepreneurship, creativity, and innovation, and encourage the formalization and growth of micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises, including through access to financial services. Other than that, H.O.P.E aims to assist the government to reduce the property overhang challenges in Malaysia, which the overhang situation was less encouraging, amounting to RM51.9 billion as of today. 
 

H.O.P.E is the FIRST IN MALAYSIA programme that has been supported by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government and endorsed by the Malaysia Book of Records (MBOR).
