It’s been a long process rebuilding after Bali’s biggest and oldest traditional market, Pasar Badung, was devastated by a fire earlier this year. That process still has no end date in sight, according to Bali officials. Meanwhile, thousands of Denpasar merchants have been left in an awkward state of limbo since the February 29 fire ripped through the four-storey market, taking away their place of work. "We are urging that it’s built and completed in 2017. Now with 2016 budget changes, we have agreed to the preparation of the detailed engineering design, so that later in 2017 it can be erected,” told the regional council chairman. But the head of Denpasar Spatial Planning and Housing separately said it’s not clear in what year the market’s construction will be fully completed. He added that it is “depending on the budget”. The Denpasar government has already submitted a proposal amounting to Rp 240 billion to the Ministry of Trade for the market’s rebuilding. Guess we’ll have to wait and see how much funding Bali landmark is granted.
