Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) refuted claims that they had not engaged with stakeholders in the area about the closure. The closure of Jalan Alor from 6pm to 3am daily was implemented following a discussion with Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Kamarulzaman Mat Salleh and the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry.
In a statement, DBKL said the closure was implemented following a meeting in March this year and that it had also engaged with the police, Bukit Bintang MP Fong Kui Lun’s office and hawker associations from Jalan Alor and Jalan Bukit Bintang.
