"Choose Your Land" is a comprehensive system that provides multiple housing services. Eligible individuals for government residential lands can access the Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning's online services portal, then choose the "Choose Your Land" service. Beneficiaries receive a text message informing them of the start of the available options selection process. They have the choice of selecting one of five options, and they receive the land location via a text message and on an interactive maps platform. The other option is "Acquire Your Land," which allows them to select specific land with government support and view the land location through interactive maps. The system also supports direct electronic payment.
