It is no wonder that city folk who frequent the place are concerned with the poor condition of the field’s facilities.Those who spoke to StarMetro urged the Ipoh City Council to resolve these issues.“My friends and I mostly go there at night to jog. We hope the lighting can be improved. Muhamad Afham said another concern for visitors to the field was the presence of intoxicated individuals.
“As far as I know, there are only three recreational parks in Ipoh that are frequented at night and Ipoh Padang is one of them.”“I have young children and they have fallen down while running on the track. MBI really needs to improve the track.“While we take plastic wastes home, not everyone share the same sentiment.Security officer Edward Prabu Richard, 33, also asked for more benches and rubbish bins at the park.
“I think most of the facilities there are in good condition but the increasing number of electric scooters is a nuisance to those exercising. I hope they don’t ruin the field. A former supervisor, who wanted to be known only as Segar, said another problem at the field was a stench emanating near the slope area connecting to the Royal Ipoh Club.“I am not really sure how it came to be this way.
