Pets Considered:
The owners are dog-lovers and welcome pets. There is, however, a STRICT POLICY on dogs being taken off the property to do their business. The Maison Cachée courtyard is intimate and contains a large number of plants making the dining terrace / swimming area too close in proximity for dog foul or urine. Dog-friendly walks in the vineyards or canal-side are within 500m of the house....moreless

Manager info
Year Purchased: 2012
About: Julian and I are both Canadians who have come to own, work and run the luxury hotel barge Athos, on the Canal du Midi. We have been based in Argeliers since 2001 with our young family. We have a healthy enjoyment of our french country life that extends to our knowledge of the region's wines, the places of historical importance, the fun tourist activities and varied sports activities in the surrounding area.
Why Argeliers, France:
La Maison Cachee is a balance of old and new. The traditional village house offers all the comforts of a modern house, but dates back to the 17th century, and is located in the quiet village of Argeliers. Renovated with modern conveniences and comforts, the property includes 4 bedrooms & bathrooms, a sitting room, kitchen / dining, a gas BBQ, a lush and private courtyard garden with 6 x 4m pool, and four bathrooms. It has generous space for 8 people and is centrally located between Narbonne and Beziers - 40 minutes from the Mediterranean beaches and 45 minutes from Carcassonne or Beziers airport, 1.15min from Montpellier.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
The house is spread over 3 floors, and is deceivingly spacious. It includes many preserved original features including wooden shutters and stone walls that give the house character.

Now, after moving, I rediscovered lots of my old drafts, writing attempts, little stories,... and it hit me.I never stopped writing.I just didn't take the time anymore. So here I am.Rekindling the fire within.The fire of writing. A flame we all carry in our hearts. My name is Michiel, or Lime, you can call me Lime if you want to... Nice to meet you!I'm a very open minded friendly person, always willing to assist where needed :) I self published a childrens book about a Pirate Cat, just because I could.Not to make money, because that never works out with self publishing. You barely sell any, most of the time.But hey, now I can say "I published a childrens book, and it has my name and all on it! And it's about a Pirate Cat, and a Ninja Puppy!". You know that feeling is so worth it. Oh, and by the way, I already know that I like you.Because you took the effort to read this :) Lessthanthree. <3.

after hours in that bright white cell, I came to a conclusion. They call people
like me 'depressed,' but it goes deeper than that. It's as if your soul has
been ripped from you, and people keep trying to stitch over the wound, but the
blood dissolves the thread like acid. Depression, it's not something we have, it's something we almost are. As if it manifests like a virus
inside of us, devouring us so that we become
the 'virus.' It's like the way people don't like to talk or hang around with
people who have a disease. That's why my parents stopped coming to visit, it
was damaging their reputation, the suicidal daughter. I know that my tag in
society has become 'the suicidal daughter.' It was like when I tried to take my
own life, I took my own name as well. Now I am 'the suicidal daughter.' When
people meet my parents, they're all 'how's the suicidal daughter?' in hushed
tones. Damn them all.

- Ghaddafi is killed and his hometown of Sirte turns into an ISIS stronghold in Libya. Congratulations. What a revolution.

An employee of Hall Chevrolet decided to take a road trip out East, but he allegedly used one of the dealership's vehicles without permission.
The car's On Star system tracked the vehicle and the driver, 35-year-old John Sargent of Milwaukee, far from Wauwatosa on July 21. The car was traveling through New York, and the driver was eventually stopped the next day in Milton, Pa., where he was charged with receiving stolen property.
Sargent told the trooper he had gone to New York to visit his sister in the hospital, and that his employer did not know he had taken the vehicle, according to a criminal complaint filed by the Pennsylvania State Police.
According to a Wauwatosa police report:
Another salesman had sold the 2009 Chevrolet Malibu and had gone out onto the lot, 11011 W. North Ave., to retrieve it July 14. But he found it was missing. A second set of keys that had been kept in a locked box was missing.
Dealership executives learned the identity of the driver when the trooper called the local police. Sargent had been hired in January, but left due to personal problems, then rejoined the dealership as a salesman in June. He hadn't shown up for work in a week.
Company policy prohibits employees from driving company vehicles outside Wisconsin. Sargent had been using a license plate assigned to another salesman.

About the Property
2 Bedrooms + Loft, 1 Bath (Sleeps 6-8) - Extremely cozy - very accommodating
A wonderful place for enjoying your time in Seattle. Part rustic hunting lodge - part romantic cabin. Very private, very classy and very fun! Comfortable and well equipped for all of your needs.
Situated at the intersections of Capitol Hill, Eastlake and Portage Bay neighborhoods which are very central to all Seattle has to offer and a really cool area to call home while you explore Seattle and really get a sense of enjoying city life.
Walk to wonderful restaurants, party at the hip Pine/Pike corridor, watch the sunset from the West side of our location, and the sunrise just down the hill....both within a very short (5 minutes?) walk. Super quick drive or very short cab ride downtown, walk to U-District, Gas Works Park the Arboretum, Broadway, Madison Park, Volunteer Park, and bike just about anywhere on the Burke-Gilman trail just across the bridge or at the extreme mountain bike course (look up 1-5 Colannade Mountain Bike Park). Jump on a paddleboard or rent a kayak just on the other side of the bridge as well - (Check out Aqua Verde Paddle Club and Cafe :) Skiing and tubing is an hour away at Snoqualmie Pass, or you can go wine tasting at Chateau St. Michelle or check out Redhook Brewery in Woodinville. White water rafting is about 60-90 minutes as well. There is a lot to do here!
Families will love the separate spaces on the top floor and main floor, hidden nooks, shelves and shelves of games and toys for ALL ages, enjoy the rustic and comfortable features and careful attention to every detail.
Totally refinished with all modern amenities including Rinnai water heater(never out), gas range, stainless steel appliances, air conditioning, stereo system, high speed internet, cable for two tv's, xbox, tons of movies, games and books.
Sleeps quite 6 comfortably, and 8 if necessary with very comfortable beds with down comforters, wonderful linens and mattresses including a tempurpedic. Two main bedrooms on first level, and space for at least 4 with one bed and a futon and a 'secret nook' on the second floor.
Two fireplaces, full - subway tiled bathroom with chandelier, fantastic modern and rustic lighting throughout. Full kitchen with dishwasher and all of the necessary equipment to entertain, cook and prepare meals or relax and open a bottle of wine and party with friends!
This is a great place that has been enjoyed by families, (in fact a group of 9 were very comfortable here), friends, girls weekends, guys weekends, wedding parties, and extended stays. The courtyard and location of the house give this place real added private feel in the middle of the city.
It really is a great place to enjoy a vacation or get away! Let me know if I can help you plan anything, or if you have any questions that I can help with. We love this place, and really want you to be able to enjoy your time here too.

VRBO Bear stayed here:
The Seattle Carriage House was the perfect place for the VRBO Bear and his friends to stay while we enjoyed our time in Seattle. Jill, the homeowner, did a fantastic job making sure that we had everything we would need for our stay. Upon arrival, the house was sparkling clean and completely prepared for our group. The four of us stayed comfortably in the house, and we easily could have had room for more! By far, our favorite feature of the house was the beautiful courtyard in the rear. To make the already unique location even more special, there is a chicken coop in the courtyard! The location in Capitol Hill was perfect as we were able to walk to many of the nearby attractions. Many of the other neighborhoods are just a short car ride away. Our entire group loved the Seattle Carriage House and cannot wait to stay there again!The VRBO Bear

If you are new to Seattle, there is a lot to offer! How do you start to narrow down choices and neighborhoods of a place you haven't visited? I understand, and have been in your shoes before. I have been very disappointed by locations that were labeled as 'urban' and equally disappointed by places that were mislabeled 'private'....I take pride in the fact by honestly saying, this carriage house is an 'urban oasis'. Yes, we are in the city, yes, we are near busy streets, yes, you will see people, buses, traffic, but if you look out your window, you will see trees, and tranquility. A short half blocks distance in nearly any direction will lead you to water. This is the funniest little piece of land in Seattle. We have lived in many of the neighborhoods around the city and will never leave this place. We LOVE it here!!
We are located at the intersection of North Capitol Hill, Portage Bay, Eastlake and Montlake neighborhoods. Some of the most premier neighborhoods in the city of Seattle. Enjoy nearby historic nearby parks, lush walking and jogging trails just steps away, high end shopping both downtown and at University Village, and amazing restaurants in literally every direction!
This intersection has our property sitting just to the East of Lake Union, to the South of the Montlake Cut, to the West of Portage Bay and the West of Lake Washington....all visible by a short walk of maybe half a block in any direction.
Husky Football Fans!! Walk to games in new stadium! Enjoy jumping into the crowd as they make their way towards Husky Stadium on game day!! Public transit is just half a block away, and so is the newly implemented public bicycle program (rent a bike).
The Seattle Carriage house is very close to getting around to all areas of town. Walk to many restaurants and coffee shops, walk to the parks, walk to the water or kayak rentals. Also, a super close drive to almost all Seattle attractions.
Great option for longer term needs for those caring for family in close by hospitals. Many of our guests have stayed for more than 1 month. The Cancer Care Alliance and Fred Hutchinson are very close, as is Seattle Childrens Hospital.
We offer non zoned street parking, and for our long term guests, we are happy to arrange an off street parking option for you.
The Seattle Carriage House is a home of pride for us and we enjoy sharing it with others. I hold a degree and background in hospitality so strive to ensure that all aspects of your vacation or trip are attended to or...more importantly met prior to arrival.
Let us know if you have any questions or concerns about your time here in Seattle. We would love to make your experience here as memorable as possible.
Jill and Dick McCormick
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2012
About the owner: We have lived all over Seattle and love the Capitol Hill, Eastlake neighborhoods and have now, are enjoying the wonderful views of Portage Bay! This is a wonderful community tucked at the edge of four wonderful water features: Lake Washington, Lake Union, Portage Bay and the Montlake Cut. The picture above is prior to any renovation when home was still in its 'primitive' state :)
Why the Owner Chose Northeast Seattle, Seattle, WA, USA:
This is the most unique and charming property I have ever seen. Everyone who comes into the carriage house and the main house are charmed by the striking differences between the two era's (10's and 50's). I understand the selection process you are going through, and have been through it multiple times of my own. It is hard to decide how to spend your money and make sure that the time you have away is not disappointing. This home is really meant to be a vacation rental. Everything inside is designed for your comfort. It is not cluttered, it is thoughtful. There are no weird smells, or cheap features. This is a quality home with careful attention to detail and charm. We look forward to continuing with the care and attention that older buildings require, as this one is certainly worth having around! We take every opportunity to make it a better place at each check in and out.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
I think among other things that people find charming about this house, is that it was actually a functioning carriage home for many years. The actual 'carriage doors' were given to a restoration company when we purchased the property. The bedrooms and kitchen were horse stables and the bathroom was the tack room. The spiraling stairway up to the top was where they stored the hay! It is made of stone and very thick insulation so that the upstairs area is actually very insulated from the downstairs area. I can not imagine a more unique - historical property - so close to the city hub.

Broken Roads
If given a chance I'd burn it all --
our course is much too obvious for me now.
We started then, so young, so beautiful,
to find ourselves here, now, with bags
under our eyes and dust behind our path.
Your blush is gone, darling;
your laugh has faded, friend;
our lives have changed since we then molded
our broken roads and smoldered nightmares
into a single fate for three to hold.
And so we fall atop the leaves of time,
and tragedy, and loss. Can you hear
them crushing beneath our weight? Screaming?
It's actually laughter.

Rated R
This movie had an interesting story. It was told in a way that captured the viewer. Learning about the hotel and the people in it were just the small parts of a much bigger picture. I found this movie to be cleverly told. It had fantastic cinematography, with so many wonderful actors helping to bring it to life. I laughed out loud a few times, and then it hit me, it was slightly reminiscent of The Pink Panther. You know the ones with Jacques Clousseau... oh the laughs!
Lots of people will enjoy and appreciate this movie. I just know it.

US Olympic figure skater Ashley Wagner had a rough day during her debut performance at the Sochi games, earning a score that visibly shocked her. If the photos of her reaction weren't enough, Wagner was also caught on camera mouthing the word 'bulls---' to a fellow competitor.
Hit TV show Supernatural commands a die-hard fan following online, and for good reason: it features crazy angel vs. demon vs. human storylines, a great sense of humor and, last but not least, stars Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki. For some reason, female viewers just love them. We wonder why.
Check out some of the best and funniest GIFs hardcore Supernatural fans have created.
It seems that nowadays, Kanye West is everywhere. With a new album out and a new baby too, Kanye is exactly where he wants to be: the center of attention.
What's cuter than babies? Babies making funny faces! Check out babies eating lemons for the first time.
Taking a baby to their first fireworks show on the 4th of July is one of those events where it's either going to be very fun or a complete nightmare. This baby easily falls into the former category.
Question: What's creepier than a combination of President Barack Obama and Nicki Minaj's faces? Or Julia Roberts and Ryan Seacrest? Answer: Nothing. Someone on the Internet went through the trouble of producing celebrity face mashup GIFs that are truly frightening.
The Oscars are always entertaining (well, maybe not always) and what better way to commemorate the 2013 Oscars than with our favorite animated GIFs from this year's show. And hey, thanks to these Oscar GIFs we have documented evidence of Tommy Lee Jones having a sense of humor!
It's time to celebrate the best moments on TV this week -- in GIF form, obviously. In this week's GIFapalooza, Liz Lemon gets married, Leslie and Ben get cute on 'Parks and Recreation,' and oh, Liz Lemon gets married (it was so awesome, we had to list it twice).

With Wrestlemania 31 kicking off yesterday, we knew this was coming. For the past two years, Smoke DZA and R.F.C. producer 183rd have been teaming up for Ringside EPs that have dropped right around the time Wrestlemania starts, and today we get their third installment. As usual, 183rd handles the entire tape's production, and samples of wrestling banter and theme songs abound (note the Iron Sheik guest appearance).
The artwork on Ringside 3 is particularly dope, showing DZA clad in a gaudy robe and being handed a large blunt as he enters the ring flaked by two women. Let us know what you think!

1st Cruise, want be my last
Sail Date: March 27, 2014
Reviewed: 3 years ago
Traveled As: Couple
Room Type: Oceanview
It was a very enjoyable and great experience-- from the food, shows, service, and different people that you meet. It was during spring break & there were a lot of people having a very happy time. One thing to caution on, make sure you have your motion sickness patch or pills, because it can go from great to not so great. Wish we would have had more time in Cozumel, but did enjoy the time we did have there. Another couple, my wife and I booked a taxi to give us a tour of the island while we were there. We had an awesome time. Would highly recommend taking a cruise if you have never been. The service is top of the line. I hope this heips!

Rainy Days
Rainy days evoke different emotions in different people. Depending on the personality, one person could feel depressed while another energized. Pick one of your favorite characters to write about, and give them a rainy day to live through. See what they do. Maybe they'll surprise you.
What do you think of when you hear rain? What emotions do you feel? What about your characters, what kind of emotions would they feel?
For this exercise pick a character and setting, let it rain, and see what comes out. It can be of any length, though is sh0uld be reasonable. Don't write a full novel and don't write just one sentence. For now, stick with prose instead of poetry. You can do this as many times as you want for as many characters.
If you're confused, the second chapter is mine and should give you a pretty good example of what I'm talking about.
The most important rule, is enjoy yourself. You may learn something about your character that you never new.

Among the groups in Iraq which are fighting most effectively agains ISIS are Kurdish troops who belong to the Kurdish Workers Party. Turkey is allegedly an ally of the US and NATO so it is expected to join in the fight against ISIS. Heck, an ISIS suicide bomber last week murdered over twenty Turkish young people. So, what is the stand of President Recep Erdogan of Turkey? You must understand that up to this moment he has refused to aid those fighting ISIS?
1. Erdogan is now willing to allow US planes to use Turkish airports.
2. However, according to President Erdogan, the real enemy is NOT ISIS. The real enemy is any Kurdish led military group.
3. In other words, the US is cooperating with Kurdish forces while our ally, Turkey, is bombing Kurdish forces.
4. Recep Erdogan is a bully, a man consumed with a desire for power, and a man who refuses to work in a cooperative manner with Kurds who live in Turkey or any other place in this world.

Say hello to the Peugeot Instinct Concept, the French manufacturer's take on our autonomous future
There can't be many 205 GTIs left these days, and now this one's in a sorry state after its driver appeared to suffer lift-off oversteer - a well known habit of these classic hot hatches
The 270 version of Peugeot's 308 GTI is fast, handsome and well built, but it's let down by a single major flaw
Loeb suffered a hefty crash on stage 8 of the fearsome Dakar rally, but still managed to get to the finish - albeit with a few parts of his Peugeot Dakar machine missing...
They cost a fortune, look absolutely mad and are completely impractical, but homologation specials are arguably the coolest creations to ever hit the streets. Here are five of the best, as chosen by you
During the Rally San Marino, a wild deer stares death in the face (in this case in the guise of a Peugeot 208 R2), then gets the hell out of there at what looks like a million miles per hour!
Many modern production cars have a preposterous amount of exhaust tips considering their power outputs, many of which are either ineffectual or actually fake. Here are some of the worst offenders!
The 308 GTi is a car we've been expecting for well over a year now, but we're glad it's finally here, and reckon it could be the best car Peugeot has made in a long time
The Dakar rally might now take place in South America, but despite moving continents it's still as tough as ever. This footage of a Peugeot 2008 DKR undergoing testing shows the desolate terrain competitors must face
These cars all have particularly unfortunate front ends, and it's all to do with the grilles they're sporting...
While we've been busy waiting for a production 308 R, Peugeot has cooked up another go-faster version of its pretty hatchback

Compared to former seed beadsMay 10, 2010
This is the first time that I have had the opportunity to use Delica beads - most of the seed beads that I have were bought several years ago and have always frustrated me. It is so nice to be able to use uniform sized beads with large holes for multiple passes with the thread.

Original ANZAC Cottage restored to former glory
Broadcast: 25/07/2003
Reporter: Jonathan Beal
TOM BADDELEY: When WA's first injured Gallipoli veteran returned home to Perth in 1916, the local community were eager to show their gratitude. They did this by building Private John Porter a house, which is now widely regarded as Australia's very first war memorial. The house, in Mount Hawthorn, was built in a day, thanks to an army of volunteers. And Private Porter's daughter still regularly visits the house where she was born and raised.
JONATHAN BEAL: For John Porter's daughter Marjorie Williams, Anzac Cottage is more than a memorial - it's her family home. In 1921, five years after the house was handed over to her father by the local Progress Association, Mrs Williams was born here in the front room.
MARJORIE WILLIAMS, DAUGHTER: I'm looking at those coloured lights that I've seen all my life up there; the windows, I mean. Yes, it's still the same old home - my home, though I've lived in three, four others since I left here.
JONATHAN BEAL: For the Mount Hawthorn Progress Association, Marjorie's old home was a practical tribute to a military campaign which crowned a young nation with imperishable glory. On February 5, 1916, thousands turned out to watch 70 horsedrawn drays arrive with the building materials. 200 volunteers built the house, while the police band provided musical entertainment and the Ladies Patriotic Guild prepared the tea. John Porter was at first reluctant to accept the house, saying he didn't want anything his comrades in arms could not also have. But he eventually reconsidered, and his granddaughter Anne remembers well his fondness and pride for his new home.
ANNE CHAPPLE, GRANDDAUGHTER: My grandmother was always very proud of the house, and Grandad too. As Mum said, he never said very much, but I guess you could see in the things that he did around the house, etc, that he felt very privileged to actually to have received this honour.
JONATHAN BEAL: What's your very first memory of the house?
MARJORIE WILLIAMS: Mainly of my dad walking down the side path on Anzac Day, 11 November, to put the flag up. He was quite religious about that. Never failed, never failed. Dad even had one of those big crosscut saws and Doreen and I liked nothing better to get on the other end occasionally.
JONATHAN BEAL: Marjorie Williams remembers fondly her first 21 years spent at Kalgoorlie Street when the house overlooked Monger's Lake and was surrounded by bushland.
MARJORIE WILLIAMS: We spent most of our time on those front steps with our dolls and prams and just playing out there. An occasional car would go up the street. Dad used to take us to Kings Park. We walked up Jacob's Ladder quite a few times. They had a playground there. Used to take us to the football matches on Saturday afternoon. All West Perth barrackers. I was up against it a bit when I got married because my husband was a staunch East Fremantle man.
JONATHAN BEAL: But like all good things, the happy days came to an end. John Porter passed away in 1964 and the family's association with the house ended just over a decade later.
MARJORIE WILLIAMS: Yeah, that was sad, because we thought when the nephew went into it that it would be in our family forever. So that was quite a trauma, really.
JONATHAN BEAL: For years the house stood derelict, and when it was eventually acquired by the Vietnam Veterans Association it was in a shocking state.
PETER RAMSAY, PRESIDENT, VIETNAM VETERANS ASSOCIATION: When we first acquired it in 1992, basically it was a disaster. The front veranda that we're now standing on had fallen down. The inside had been stripped and gutted by people who had stolen stuff. It really was a hell of a mess.
JONATHAN BEAL: It may have been built in a day, but it took 10 years of painstaking work to restore.
PETER RAMSAY: Money was a problem, because it just absorbs it like a huge sponge, and we had massive support from Lotteries Commission, or now Lotteries West. And I guess the nice part of the story is that it was community money that built the house and it's community money that's put it back to the standard that we see it in today.
JONATHAN BEAL: Today the house is a museum and a meeting place for the Vietnam veterans. Peter Ramsay and his association are also working to secure the future of this piece of WA history.
PETER RAMSAY: I believe that we've got an obligation to make sure that this house is bequeathed to the appropriate organisation - we're not too sure who that is yet - so that in 50 years time the Anzac Day service is still happening here. I, personally, would not want to see it slip back to as it was 10 or 12 years ago.
JONATHAN BEAL: As for Marjorie and Anne, they continue their visits to the old place and couldn't be more happy with the work the veterans have done to restore and preserve what they'll always consider the family home.
ANNE CHAPPLE: I'm absolutely rapt with what's happened with it. And, you know, what the Vietnam vets have done has really rekindled all the memories.
MARJORIE WILLIAMS: I couldn't be more pleased if I tried. Loved it, yep. My mother would love to see this, and Dad would have loved to see it, back almost in its former glory. Really great.

At a news conference in Bangor today, Collins said the issue is so important, it'll be the first bill she proposes when Congress gets back to work next week. As commercial trucks weighing more than 80,000 pounds return to some city streets and rural roads, Collins is pushing to get them back on the highway. A one-year pilot project letting heavier trucks stay on I-95 expired last month. "Allowing the heavy trucks to use the highway, it saves fuel, it improves safety, it makes our businesses more competitive and it has environmental benefits. "Now, trucks traveling north have to get off the highway in Augusta and ride on secondary roads. In Bangor, that sends them right past the police station, businesses and homes. Chief Ron Gastia says, "Those trucks do not stop quickly. No matter how good those truck operators are, those loads can shift and as they travel rural roads and city streets, they make these corners and their loads sometimes shift. And those loads pose a significant safety issue to pedestrians and other drivers."Collins says it's also a matter of saving money for businesses, like Lincoln Paper and Tissue. President and CEO Keith Van Scotter says, "We pay about $8 million a year in freight. Now a big portion of that is fuel, so you say we can save maybe 20-30 percent on fuel costs. That represents a savings well in excess of half a million dollars a year."National Highway safety groups and railroads are opposed to raising weight limits to 100,000 pounds.But Collins says it's her top priority to bring Maine in line with other states. "They're able to do so in New Hampshire, they're able to do so in Massachusetts, parts of New York State and in the Canadian provinces, so our employers are put at a competitive disadvantage. That just does not make sense in terms of safety, energy and competitiveness."Collins plans to sponsor the bill with Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont, who's also pushing to raise the truck weight limit there.

KUALA TERENGGANU (Bernama) – About 17,000 families (65,000 people) who were flood victims in Terengganu last month will receive compassionate payment of RM1,000 per family beginning this Sunday.
Out of the RM1,000, RM500 is contributed by the National Security Council while the other RM500 comes from the state government.
Menteri Besar Datuk Ahmad Razif Abdul Rahman said the state government had just received the full official list of the flood-affected families and hoped the aid could help lessen their financial burden in rebuilding their lives after the disaster.
"The state executive council at our weekly meeting today also agreed to pay aid arrears to 1,500 families in Dungun who were flood victims in 2013 but their names were not in the list," he told reporters, here, yesterday.
Out the 17,000 affected families in last month's floods, five families lost their homes while another 408 houses were damaged.
Ahmad Razif said those who lost their homes would get new ones with the construction cost at RM40,000 to RM48,000 per house, with the rebuilding projects to be supervised by the respective elected representatives.
"The 408 damaged houses will be repaired by the Public Works Department at a cost of RM5,000 to RM10,000 per house, with the involvement of various parties including students from Kolej Giat Mara or the Industrial Training Institute, " he said.
