Malaysians urge DBKL to take immediate action

In the comments, many Malaysians expressed their disappointment at how such a popular spot in Kuala Lumpur can be infested with rodents.

A couple of commenters sarcastically said that Kuala Lumpur is fast becoming like America’s New York City or France’s Paris, two global cities infamous for their rat infestations.

Besides that, several commenters tagged the Kuala Lumpur City Hall’s (DBKL) TikTok page so that they would be aware of the infestation and take immediate action against it.

Speaking of which, one commenter asked where is DBKL and why isn’t any action being taken, while another sarcastically said that DBKL would only take action if these rats somehow built an illegal stall on the streets of Kuala Lumpur.
