SITI KHADIJAH MARKET KELANTAN


















It has been years I been to this little city in the North Eastern Coast of Malaya. I love this city is because most of the local life style is very much laid back,the first time I visited was in 1976. But today 2013 that is my latest trip to Kota Baru, I felt the environment and life style had started to transform, today they have built a new by-pass over head road, a big Tesco was born, more bigger supermarkets and hotels had established, the decades old night market has lost its charms when it gives way for the development for a big supermarket project. It never been the same now. I feel sad for the elderly folks where they will find it hard to catch up with the development where they do not need. During the 70s' you will see hundreds of trishaws waiting in front of Pasar Besar, but today only a few left, and life must be very hard for those in trishaw business. For the Pasar Besar business is also slowing down, they have to compete with the big supermarkets. In Kelantan, majority of the population are children and elderly people, where most youngsters will try their luck in greener pastures in other states.IF Kelantan keeps on with this pace of development it DEFINITELY will hurt the folks in KELANTAN
