NEW PREMISES FOR HAWKERS AT SAU MAU PING
Registered hawkers now trading at Sau Mau Ping Estate Stage II will
be moving into the Resettlement Department's modular markets later this
month to ply their trade.
The modular markets, built inside the estate compound, are aimed
at giving these hawkers a clean and sanitary trading centre.
There are about 460 eligible hawkers at Sau Mau Ping and they will
be given a stall either through a ballot or an auction.
Sixty-six stalls earmarked for meat, fish, poultry and cooked food
trades will be auctioned and rents for each of these stalls will be $200 a month.
The rest of the stalls, which have been designated for general trades,
will be put up for balloting. Rents for the general stalls will be between
$30 and $60 a month.
The auction will take place on Tuesday (November 14) and the balloting
will follow two days later.
Only registered hawkers are eligible for the auction or
there are enough stalls for all of them.

A Resettlement Department spokesman said that the replacement of hawker
stalls by these modular markets will improve greatly the appearance as well
as the sanitation of the estate.
Modular markets have also been built in estates at Yau Tong and Castle
Peak in Kowloon and Hing Wah on Hong Kong Island.
The dates when these markets will be made available to hawkers have
not yet been announced.
