Slow business at big market

Only a few stalls are open on the second floor of the Paya Terubong market complex. – LIM BENG TATT/The Star

FOR a market that serves the most densely populated suburb on Penang island, the Paya Terubong market complex leaves much to be desired.

Well over 150,000 people live here but the area’s three-storey market complex - although large - does not seem to supply much in the way of variety and abundance.
