The old-fashioned-looking Kampong Baru owes its rural atmosphere to the traditional Malay wooden stilt houses fringed by coconut palms and banana trees. Chickens and goats roam the narrow streets and stalls sell all kinds of food, such as grilled fish and pitahaya smoothies. The lively weekly night market sells clothes and handicrafts. At the nearby Chow Kit market, you can find fresh produce, spices and textiles.
This image is of one of the last wooden houses in old town Kampung Baru.
A familiar image: the big money/modern commercial market, is advancing at the expense of the original inhabitants....
