SINGAPORE - The beleaguered Jurong West Hawker Centre, which was previously reported to have just half its stalls open for business, will be closed for at least 10 months from August, said the National Environment Agency on Tuesday .

Hawker Management added that it had been set up to manage Jurong West Hawker Centre as part of Koufu's corporate social responsibility efforts. With the contract's end, Koufu will look to carry out such efforts in other ways, it said. Tenants had said that the empty stalls mean a lack of variety in both the hawker centre and market's offerings, which makes it tough to draw residents who have other nearby options.

"It is thus estimated that Jurong West Hawker Centre will be closed temporarily after the exit of Hawker Management until it reopens some time in the second half of 2021." She added:"NEA's immediate priority is to work with Hawker Management to ensure that the incumbent stallholders will be well taken care of during this period of transition and to assist all to find a stall to continue their hawker trade if they wish to."
