Cutting costs: Mohd Amin says some of the DBKL projects were not necessary, but many people had been lobbying for them.

 KUALA LUMPUR: The redevelopment of a new Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) administrative building in Jalan Raja Laut costing RM300mil is one of the major projects cancelled by mayor Tan Sri Mohd Amin Nordin Abd Aziz in a move to cut costs.
