UPGRADING scupper drains, constructing new sump pumps, placing sandbags and desilting debris at flood retention ponds in 25 flood hotspots in the city are all part of interim measures taken by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to tackle the flash flood problem in Kuala Lumpur.

The project, costing RM10mil, was unveiled by mayor Datuk Seri Mahadi Che Ngah on Monday (May 9) at the DBKL headquarters, and is expected to start immediately.
