description Many landslides occurring in housing areas in Malaysia have intrigued and shocked the Malaysian public. These disasters have caused colossal damage to property and losses of life. It is a trite fact that, in Malaysia, soil problems have negatively impacted the residents' life and property. The most significant soil problem disaster in Malaysia was the collapse of Highland Towers in 1993. This disaster caused pecuniary and non-pecuniary losses to the residents of the buildings. The question is, what can be learnt so far from these land-related catastrophes? The main objective of this paper is to analyse the legal provisions in land law that bear on soil problems in housing areas. This writing aims to explore the weaknesses in the land law and its implementation to provide preventive and curative legal measures against soil problems and their consequences in housing development areas. This writing proposes a new perspective on land legal ideas for governing soil fitness. The author researchers used qualitative social and legal research methodologies to study the facts and issues. The subjects of this research involve many housing development areas that face soil problems in Malaysia. It follows that the outcomes of this paper and its analysis relating to flood disasters in housing areas can enrich knowledge and ideas on how to face the issue and protect the rights of house residents.
