Think City and DBKL launch the Creative KL Grants Programme and the Creative KL Urban Challenge

MALAYSIA’S capital city is taking centre stage as one of the key highlights of Budget 2023 targets to accelerate urban renewal of Downtown Kuala Lumpur (KL) as a destination for creative and cultural sectors.

This emphasises the government’s commitment to fostering liveable, resilient and sustainable cities that prioritise the well-being and quality of life for all Malaysians.

Towards this end, Think City and the KL City Hall (DBKL) has launched the Creative KL Grants Programme and the Creative KL Urban Challenge as part of the rejuvenation efforts.
