Japanese touch to street market

Japanese touch to street market

THE Japanese expatriate community will be showcasing their homeland’s traditional arts, craft and food at the Little Penang Street Market (LPSM) in Upper Penang Road on March 25.

There will also be a cosplay competition and a photography exhibition on the earthquake and tsunami tragedy that hit Japan last year on March 11.

Japanese pottery will be on sale and visitors will also be treated to a demonstration on how to make udon noodles.

The cosplay competition, which is limited to 15 participants, will see the winner walk away with RM500.

The LPSM that day is in remembrance of the first year anniversary of the tsunami tragedy, held in the spirit of ‘kizuna’, which means bond of friendship in Japanese.

The LPSM will be held from 10am to 5pm.
