Kampung Cina residents upset over Kuala Terengganu council's plan to close iconic market

The Kg Tiong market has been a popular community hub and meeting point for the past 40 years.

PETALING JAYA: In its recent annual assembly, PAS said it wants to convince non-Muslims that the Islamist party can take care of their interests, but a decision on an iconic market and food court in Terengganu challenges that narrative.

Residents of Kampung Cina, a historic enclave in Kuala Terengganu, the capital of PAS-ruled Terengganu, were upset that traders and hawkers of the Kampung Tiong market and food court were being evicted.
