Abstract

This paper aims to show Malaysia's types of strata lease schemes. The differences in Malaysian strata schemes are classified using case study methodology into several types with significant dissimilarity. The objective is to outline the contrast between the strata scheme, the private lease scheme, the Khoo Kongsi strata lease scheme, the Wakaf strata scheme and the Medini lease schemes guided by the National Land Code (NLC), the Strata Title Act 1985 (STA) and the Strata Management Act 2013 (SMA) legislations.
