NEARLY 20% of Kuala Lumpur’s nightclubs have shut down since the movement control order (MCO) was first implemented on March 18, according to the newly established Klang Valley Pub, Night Club and Bar Association.

Its pro-tem committee chairman Benny Bedi said the body was set up to save more businesses from closing shop.
