KUCHING, Oct 3: Kuching South City Council (MBKS) had nominated the Kuching Natural Farmers’ Market for two 2026 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) awards, with the results expected next week.
MBKS Mayor Dato Wee Hong Seng revealed this during the fourth anniversary celebration of the Kuching Natural Farmers’ Market at the MBKS covered car park today.
From just a handful of sellers four years ago, he said that the market has grown into a thriving marketplace with 171 sellers, evolving into more than just a place to buy fresh produce.
“It’s not just a market; it’s a movement of people committed to health and building a healthy city. This is our version of nation-building. It’s small, but it will grow,” he said.
