Is Pingmin Market Becoming Malaysia Hipster Pasar Malam?
Malaysia has a fond view of pasar malam for being lively, bringing varieties of street food, and cheap stuff. Recently, however, a new ‘pasar’ has been launched, and now it has become slightly controversial; it is called Pingmin Market. Some call it a “hipster pasar malam” because it predominantly presents local handmade products combined with creative workshops and has Instagram-friendly aesthetics (even every stores have their own Instagram account). But is this really true, or is it not just that much?
