Method & notes
The counts show the volume of entertainment-licence applications and approvals handled in each jurisdiction, not a performance score.
METHOD & LIMITATIONSHow the numbers were calculated
PulseKita reproduces the same-source aggregate application and approval counts published by the Selangor State Assembly for 2020-2024. The two frames show counts only. They are not a ranking of council quality, because local demand, premise mix and application circumstances differ.
- The source reports 1,164 applications and 974 approvals across all 12 PBTs for 2020-2024.
- The source prints an overall approval percentage of 84%.
- This dataset covers entertainment-centre licensing only; it is not a measure of all business licensing.
- An approval count is an administrative outcome, not evidence that one council is more business-friendly or performs better than another.
- The source explains that applications remain subject to safety, location, community-impact and legal requirements.
