‘Glutton street’ traders defend opening fence for access

Jalan Kepong Baru vendors have created gate-like openings so customers can access their stalls easily.

VENDORS along a stretch of Jalan Kepong Baru known as “wai sek kai” (glutton street) are urging Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to provide access along the newly installed fence that has adversely affected their business.

Speaking at a press conference, Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng’s assistant Dic Lai said while DBKL had initially planned fence openings, nothing had been done so far.
