AFTER two postponements from early this year, the new Selayang Daily Market in Batu Caves has finally opened its doors to the public.
The five-storey complex under Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL), with about 750 trading lots, was built to replace the wet market that was temporarily located at an adjacent site.
DBKL Licensing and Business Control Department Batu officer Shamsul Bahari Ismail said a majority of traders from the old site had moved their wares to the new complex.
“About 60% to 70% have moved their belongings and started operating today, while the rest are still in the process.
“Some 20% of trading lots in the complex are still available.

FEDERAL Territories Ministry has embarked on a massive tree-planting exercise that will see 900,000 trees being planted in Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya in the next four years.
Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa said the initiative, to be carried out in phases starting this year, was in line with the campaign launched by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin to plant 100 million trees in Malaysia within the same period.
He added that the 100 trees planted near the Batu water retention pond in Sentul was the first batch of the project carried out by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) and Putrajaya Corporation.
