Housing is always critical for all governments in developing countries before providing public housing for low-income people. However, public housing has always been associated with long-Term problems and poor value for money. To achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda, the globe is presently being encouraged to promote Sustainable Success (SS) in the construction industry, particularly in public housing. The Malaysian government is aware of the situation, and the Ministry of Housing and Local Government recently emphasized the need for long-Term improvement in the National Housing Policy (NHP) 2018-2025. The sustainability factor will greatly increase the value of construction projects, particularly public housing projects. As a result, the purpose of this study is to present a thorough review of the SS that contributes to long-Term success in public housing projects. To gain a better understanding of the key topics, a systematic literature review was conducted, and the findings were validated using a qualitative method involving semi-structured interviews with five construction key players. As a consequence, economic, social, and environmental factors all play an important role in achieving long-Term public housing. The study's findings could be critical for the framework's development, acting as a catalyst for the creation of sustainable public housing. © 2024 Author(s).
