Operating hours
Pasar pagi in Malaysia.
Pasar pagi mostly operate from early morning to the afternoon. Nevertheless, there is also a related traditional market called pasar malam (lit. 'night market'). The difference between pasar pagi and pasar malam is in its operating hours. Pasar pagi opens early in the morning from dawn to the noon every day, approximately from 04:00 to 12:00. On the other hand, pasar malam opens at night, approximately from 17:00 to 22:00, and only on selected days of a week.
The type of goods being sold is also quite different. Pasar pagi is where many housewives, domestic helps and local folks appear to shop their daily needs, mostly uncooked fresh produce. The things which are on sale are usually fresh daily produce, including fruits, vegetables, spices, fish, meat, eggs, and all kinds of daily products. While pasar malam is more to cater a leisurely shopping and eating-out activity, selling ready to eat food, snacks, clothing and various knick-knacks.
