THE redevelopment of the 63-year-old Pasir Pinji wet market in Ipoh, Perak, will be carried out as stakeholders have given their support for the move.

Local Government Development Minister Nga Kor Ming said about 2,000 people took part in a poll a few years ago to determine whether the market should be redeveloped and more than 90% agreed to the plan.
