UNEXPECTED expenditure due to the Covid-19 pandemic has forced Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to review this year’s budget and adjust its expenditure accordingly for 2021.

Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Mahadi Che Ngah said DBKL saw an RM800mil drop in revenue this year, from a projected revenue of RM2.52bil, due to the pandemic and subsequent movement control order.
