IPOH: Traders at the Buntong wet market here are being targeted by thieves, with fish, vegetables and other fresh produce stolen.

According to vegetable seller Choong Ah Huat, the situation has gotten worse in the last two months, with traders suffering losses when their supply is stolen, about once every two weeks."We suspect the thieves come very early in the morning. Although we keep our items inside our stores, they manage to break in, leaving us with no choice but to keep the vegetables inside our vans.

A mutton seller, who only wished to be known as Calawiah, in his 40s, said he did not keep meat in the store, but his meat hooks and weighing machine had been stolen many times. "We traders pay a monthly rental fee to the Ipoh City Council. I hope something will be done to overcome this problem," he said.He said the wholesaler had left the supply beneath his stall, but when he came in the morning to open his stall, the fish had gone missing.
