The night market in the vicinity of Thabyaygon Market, a prominent market in Nay Pyi Taw Union Territory, has had an increase in the number of sellers after the earthquake, but the number of buyers is still significantly small, according to sellers.
The night market was very busy before the earthquake, but now, it is with more sellers but fewer buyers. As the number of buyers is still small, revenues have not turned out yet as expected, according to some sellers.
One News’ news editor U Kyaw Kyaw Latt who is covering news on the ground reported on the current situation at the market 14 days after the earthquake.
Since the earthquake, some sellers have been facing difficulties in earning a return on their investment, eating and even paying their rent due to the lack of buyers, some sellers said about the current trading at Thabyaygon night market.
A visitor to the night market also spoke about the differences in the situation before and after the earthquake and what he experienced during the earthquake.
In addition, shops inside the Thebyaygon Market were damaged by the earthquake, and most of the shops are still closed. Some shops are open but there are almost no customers, a shoe shop owner told One News.
