What are Pasar Malams?
Known for their colourful flair, boisterous music and inexpensive goods, pasar malams have a rich history.
The term “pasar malam” means “night market” in Malay.
True to their name, they are typically more alive in the evenings.
In Singapore, pasar malams started as weekly night markets organised by hawkers in the 1950s.
Unfortunately, they caused health and pollution problems, causing the concept to be phased out by 1978.
Luckily for us, pasar malams eventually came back, albeit with strict government regulations, to ensure they no longer cause problems.
Nowadays, they are typically held once a year at specific locations.
Pasar malams also require a trade fair permit from the National Environment Agency (NEA) in order to operate.
Tips by Netizens
Pasar malams are always an exciting affair.
The comments under TLK’s social media posts about the event are buzzing with tips on making the experience worth it.
Some netizens have reported that though the pasar malam begins to operate at noon, you shouldn’t come too early as some stalls may not be open.
However, netizens have also warned others about the crowd, especially during dinner time.
Regarding foods, the Halal Kway Teow and Thai Fried Banana are reportedly must-haves.
