Traditional
markets
Traditional
markets are places for social interaction between traders and buyers. The
buying and selling process is usually through a process of bargaining prices,
and the price given for an item is not a fixed price, in other words it is
still negotiable, this is very different from the modern market. Generally,
traditional markets provide basic materials and household needs. Traditional
market locations can be in places that are open or even on the roadside.
One
characteristic of traditional markets is that some of them use tents where
sellers sell their merchandise, as well as buyers who walk back and forth to
select and bid for items to buy.
in
making a purchase contract that is lawful and binding on the market which is
very useful for an area with the existence of a traditional market people can
bargain with each other in making sales transactions besides the wisdom that we
take due to the traditional market which can strengthen the relationship
between fellow buyers commonly discussed when meeting in a market. Many people
depend on traditional markets which become the livelihoods of people in one
area to maintain their existing lives.

mayor's policies that do not take sides with small traders, for example in kec.
Tanjung pura Langkat modern market is present in the midst of traditional
markets with 4 minimarkets (Indomaret, Alfamart, Alfamidi) where they are open
with traditional markets at 8.00 WIB they have opened a mini market until at 24
WIB this can reduce the income received by small traders in existing
traditional markets.
Many
relocations carried out by local governments harm traditional market traders
often we encounter traditional market traders in relocations to places that are
not feasible, runny, muddy, and not standard and not in accordance with the
existing market, the local government should relocate before paying attention
to several aspects including ( 1) historical aspects of the government must
know the existence of the market from history, since when the market is present
and has historical value for this local community are values that must be
maintained by the government and local communities, (2) Environmental aspects,
the government must pay attention to the environment where the new market is
able to accommodate all the existing traders and the community around both the
problem of drainage, water, ditches and odors caused by the market, not because
the market is just a turmoil for the surrounding community so that it can harm
the local community (3) economical, government must us calculate and explain to
apabial traditional traders being relocated to new markets can increase income
for traders with valid data datas so that traders do not lose long when
relocated, the government must think of these three aspects to protect the
interests of all parties.
