INFOKU, BLORA – To prevent unwanted things in the future, the traders of the Cepu Central Market have begun to be consulted on the market development plan.
The project is expected to start in June with backfill at the end of May.
Traders asked to relocate not far from the market and strategically so as not to impact buying and selling transactions.
Head of the Regional Market Division of the Blora Trade, Cooperative and Small and Medium Enterprises (Dindagkop UKM) Office, Sony Supriyanto explained, several inputs from traders were accommodated as guidelines for formulating market development policies during the early stages of socialization on Wednesday (15/3).
"Because market development and the placement of traders are prone to conflict, an agreement is needed to prevent turmoil," he said.

According to Sony, a budget of Rp. 3 billion will be realized to build 272 booths.
In detail, deducted the cost of supervision and operational costs of Rp 100 million each. So that the physical building alone gets a ceiling of IDR 2.8 billion.
"The regency government has also prepared a companion budget from the regional budget of Rp. 200 million, Rp. 100 million for planning, 75 million for piling, and Rp. 25 million for dismantling," he said.
"The plan is that the land area will be 30 x 40 square meters. At the end of May the land was cleared so that construction began in June. ''The shape of the building is expanse and there is no table. There is no way fish traders will be mixed with clothing traders. Zoning must be drawn, so there will be no disputes between traders," he said.

Currently, data is still being collected on the number of affected traders who are actively selling or not.
Data collection was carried out by managers, UPT, representatives of traders and associations.
He ensured that market development and placement were carried out transparently so that there would be no turmoil.
“Don't trust anyone if someone offers a kiosk with the lure of paying. If there are unscrupulous people in the market who ask for money, report it to the official immediately. Because of the big risk. The Cepu Central Market incident a few years ago must be a lesson," he explained.
Hanik, one of the traders said he was happy with the construction plan. He hopes that the relocation will be placed in a strategic location and not far from the market. ( Endah / IST )
