KUCHING, Nov 13: Kenyalang Park Commercial Centre is set to turn into a Chinese New Year shopping hotspot from Jan 22 to Feb 5 next year, with the Kuching South City Council (MBKS) offering 310 stall spaces for traders and public applicants in a bid to attract more shoppers, boost local businesses, and breathe new life into the established neighbourhood.

The Kenyalang Chinese New Year Festive Sale will be followed by a three-day Satay Sale from Feb 5 to 7 at the same venue, giving visitors more opportunities to shop, eat, and celebrate with family and friends.

MBKS Mayor Dato Wee Hong Seng said the events are part of the council’s continued efforts to revive the commercial centre by drawing visitors back to the neighbourhood and creating more business opportunities for local traders.
