I am Robert Lau’ market visit

Lau arrived at the market at 10am accompanied by councillor Chieng Buong Toon and several officials of the Sibu Hawkers Association, and he started off with the traditional handshakes with traders and patrons.

The trip to the market was actually nothing new because Lau made many such trips when he was vice-chairman of the SMC Public Health Committee, listening to grouses, complaints, feedback and requests from the hawkers and looking into ways to solve these issues.

Nonetheless, yesterday he made more than just a visit as he talked to everyone he met, making it a point that they got his name right.

“I am Robert Lau Hui Yew and I have been chosen by SUPP for the Bandar Sibu by-election,” he told a long line of them.

He only left the market after almost two hours, with a promise to come come back on Sunday.
