Lately there was report that a party associated to the Perak Sultan has 'taken over' the land. So any previous plans no longer apply.

Perak Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry was always and still is interested in redeveloping the site...certain individuals wanted to construct a multi-storey hotel. The forum was a pilot initiative for many planned initiatives to engage the communities of Ipoh. Politicians and civil servants are never creative, serious, determined, and seek meaningful aspect in undertaking objective driven projects.

I am one of them too, but I attended the forum by City Council in the Syuen Hotel in January 2008. The forum even concluded with an announcement that a competition will be held for the best re-development proposal. Somehow the issue died off very conveniently. Probably the Mr.Mayor U owe us an explanation on the renewal of Yau Tet Shin Bazaar. Thank you Jerry for reminding the ignorant Ipohites of the YTS Bazaar.
