  "account": "The Selangor government has tabled a RM3.3 billion budget for 2027, aimed at financing state administration and ongoing development initiatives. According to Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari, 57.6% of the total allocation, or RM1.9 billion, is designated for operating expenditure, while RM1.4 billion (42.4%) is earmarked for development purposes. The state projected a revenue collection of RM2.85 billion for 2027, with land premiums contributing over RM1.1 billion, or 39% of the total revenue. The remaining revenue will be sourced from land tax, federal grants, and other non-revenue receipts. As of December 31, 2025, the Selangor Consolidated Fund's reserves amounted to RM4.736 billion. By November 11, 2026, the reserves had increased to RM5.121 billion, primarily due to a RM384.84 million rise in the consolidated revenue account and a RM3.408 billion increase in the consolidated trust account. The state government recorded a surplus of RM422.40 million as of November 11, 2026. In 2027, the government has allocated RM36.45 million for 47 immediate flood mitigation projects across various river basins in Selangor.",
