Locals are continuing to shy away from the market.

Penang Island City Council is pointing to the complex’s inaccessibility as the cause but traders say locals prefer going to other wet markets.

Gaik Hong added that her business was a lot better when she traded along the main road before moving into the complex. The complex has three storeys with ample parking space on the ground floor, but few people especially senior citizens are keen to climb up the stairs to the upper floors. “There are no new traders taking up the empty stalls, while the present ones are contemplating on leaving soon,” she added.
