Old hawker sells oyster cakes due to high market

Brother Quan has participated in the market for many years. This year he resells crispy fried oyster cakes. He smiled and said that he studied under the King of the Top Ten Oyster Cakes, "the oyster cakes are excellent." In the 1960s and 1970s, Brother Quan used to make a "ghost stall" to sell street food such as tofu flowers and car noodles. After many years of hard work, he has now successfully launched the shop and opened a car noodle shop in Tai Kok Tsui. Over the years, Brother Quan has seen multiple economic ups and downs. He believes that when the market is down, the market appears to be more valuable, because citizens are often more patronized by lower prices and a lively atmosphere. He once again participated in the Xinchun Market, hoping to help young people run the market, "helping people and helping themselves," he said.

District Council Member: Sham Shui Po set up a market group yesterday

Sham Shui Po (Nanchang South) District Councillor Lee Ting-Fung revealed that the Sham Shui Po District Council formally established the "Community Building and District Market" group yesterday. As chairman of the group, he hoped that the group could win multiple market demands, such as simplifying the application process and opening up unused space to regional groups to run the market. Guan Dalian Li Dacheng pointed out that the government has not loosened the policy of the market, and the group's application for the market and the search for land to run the market still pass the border. Based on his experience in running markets many times, he pointed out that generally the market run by the LCSD can end at 11 pm, but civil society often needs to end activities at 10 pm according to the rental rules.

Organize the market in the eighteenth district of Hebei to bloom

The leading unit also said that in the long run, it hopes to promote the market in 18 districts. Zhang Yanzhe, the director of the grass-roots market alliance organization, said that nearly 11 district councils of the new 18 district councils intend to discuss the market policies. He explained that different regions have different needs for the local market. For example, in the North District, there is a constant wet and dry goods market to meet the lack of shopping and market support in the new housing estates in the district. Yuen Long and Tin Shui Wai districts want market-style farm markets In order to break the monopoly in the exhibition area. Zhang hopes that the 18 districts can promote related research in the district boards in the future to open up idle land and policies in the district, and then push the government to carry out related policies.
