  "account": "KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 1 — Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has called on residents and delivery riders to exercise caution when using public housing amenities, following a widely circulated video showing a motorcycle entering a People's Housing Project (PPR) lift. The CCTV footage sparked public outrage over safety hazards and potential property damage. While DBKL did not single out the individual in the video, it addressed the broader issue of riders using elevators to expedite deliveries. The authority acknowledged the challenges faced by food delivery riders and appreciated their contributions to city life. However, DBKL emphasized that convenience should not override the responsibility to respect rules and maintain shared facilities. Elevators are crucial for public housing (PA) and PPR residents, particularly senior citizens, persons with disabilities (OKU), expectant mothers, and young families. Regular maintenance is carried out to ensure passenger safety, but frequent breakdowns strain municipal resources and disrupt daily routines. DBKL urged users to be more responsible in their usage, questioning whether those who frequently complain about broken lifts consider the impact of their careless actions. The authority reiterated that earning a living should not compromise civic regulations or communal infrastructure. DBKL stressed that the cooperation and consideration of all parties are essential to keep public amenities operational in the long term.",
