Selangor: Selangor has recorded RM2.7 billion in revenue to date, surpassing this year’s initial target of RM2.3 billion. Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said the strong performance was the result of coordinated efforts by the entire team across all levels of the state administration.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, Amirudin expressed satisfaction with the achievement, stating, ‘Alhamdulillah, we have exceeded our target of RM2.3 billion. In the (2026) Budget announcement recently, I mentioned that we could reach RM2.7 billion, and today we’ve already surpassed that figure.’ He added that they are optimistic about achieving even better results by the end of the year, pending several payments related to land matters.
During the tabling of the Selangor Budget 2026 on Nov 14, Amirudin highlighted that state revenue collections had reached RM2.49 billion as of Nov 13, 2025, exceeding the earlier full-year projection of RM2.35 billion by more than 106 per cent.
Amirudin also addressed suggestions for increasing cash assistance to flood victims, emphasizing that the current priority is to prevent disasters by ensuring flood mitigation projects are implemented and completed promptly. He cited the situation in Hulu Langat, where the second phase of the Sungai Langat flood mitigation project remained at the design stage, as an example of the need for expedited action.
In addition, a total of 20 mosques and surau in Selangor received RM2.47 million in allocations for development and maintenance works. Amirudin explained that the allocation for the 11 mosques and nine surau was funneled through the Kumpulan Wang Amanah Bantuan Dana Pembinaan Dan Penyelenggaraan Masjid dan Institusi Islam Selangor, aimed at addressing urgent needs like structural repairs and upgrading existing facilities.
