DBKL: Nightclub in Jalan Berangan illegal, to be shut down

Wednesday, 1 Aug 2018






THE house-turned-entertainment outlet in Jalan Berangan, Kuala Lumpur, which has been causing sleepless nights for its neighbours, is illegal and has to cease operations.

Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL), which cancelled the outlet’s entertainment licence earlier, has now also cancelled its premises’ licence.


In a statement, DBKL corporate planning department director Khairul Azmir Ahmad said they were aware of the complaints made by neighbours on the loud music and nuisance caused by drunk patrons as well as haphazard parking in the neighbourhood.

He stated that the outlet was operating without an entertainment licence, and DBKL had issued notices and confiscated musical equipment and entertainment items several times since 2016.



The resident, Y.M. Lou, 60, had complained to DBKL, Public Complaints Bureau of the Prime Minister’s Depart-ment and also lodged several police reports over the matter but the problem remained unresolved.

Lou was also quoted saying that she was not consulted before the house next door was converted into a commercial establishment, which was a requirement for such processes.

On hearing about the revocation of the outlet’s premises licence, Lou said she still heard music from the outlet yesterday.

“Despite being illegal, they are still operating. The same have been happening over the years.

“DBKL officers come and go but nothing happens.

“I want action. That means shutting down the place permanently.

“DBKL must send a stern message that illegal establishments will face the same consequences,” she added.
