The sheer amount of garbage is staggering. 912,500 metric tonnes of garbage a year. Plus costs for landfills, etc. Regardless of which company DBKL engages, the cost would remain the same to move literally mountains of rubbish.

What we can do is lessen the burden of the city by not throwing too much garbage. Perhaps a reduce, reuse, recycle mentality could help?

Under the law (Local Government Act 1976, if I'm not mistaken), DBKL can revise the Annual Value every five years and charge a maximum of 35% across the board.

Should the value of properties change in the future - for example a drop in property prices and/or rental rates - then City Hall can do another Annual Value Revision.

No, it is not true. There is no race discrimination when DBKL was conducting the Annual Value Revision. Should you believe any form of unfair discrimination has been committed, please report to DBKL using the information we have provided above.
