Members of the Macau General Union of Youth Associations including its chairman Ng Mao Lam yesterday urged the government yesterday to build a traditional wet market for the city’s largest cluster of public housing in Seac Pai Van in Coloane.
After handing the group’s petition to an official outside Government Headquarters, addressed to Secretary for Administration and Justice Sonia Chan Hoi Fan, Ng said many residents living in Seac Pai Van public housing flats hoped a wet market will be set up there.
The association’s petition says that residents in Seac Pai Van hope that a wet market will open there so that they can buy many kinds of fresh food such as live poultry, instead of a shopping centre where only a limited supply of fresh food is available, adding they hope the government will listen to what residents really want.
