ok, now I will explain and tell the results of the observations that I have made at the ruko

market. So
there is a market in Rukoh known as the rukoh market. Here are some pictures that I managed to
capture when I visited the Rukoh market.

This market is one of several markets in Banda Aceh which is famous for its complete goods. This
market is open from the morning until the next morning, you could say this market is open 24 hours but
if there are no more customers at night, then this market will be closed. There are many goods sold at
this ruko market such as vegetables, various kinds of meat, packaged wholesale goods, even home
decoration are also available at the ruko market. This ruko market is a traditional public market where
all buyers are free to bid on the price of goods, this market is also free to be entered by anyone without
exception.

I think there are many people who like this market because of the neat arrangement of shops where on
the right the road sells raw food ingredients such as vegetables and meat and on the left the road sells
wholesale goods such as shampoo, oil and many more. the location of adjacent stores also makes it
easier for shoppers to move from one store to another.

after making observations what I found was,

first, in the ruko market, buyers and sellers are free to bargain over the price of goods, so there is a lot
of communication between buyers and sellers, but this causes the market to sound very noisy, the
position of the ruko market which is on the side of the road causes the sound of vehicles to also mix with
people's voices in the market.

second. The market atmosphere is very warm where sellers of goods will offer their goods in their own
way, it looks as if the buyer and seller have met before.

third. between one vegetable shop and another vegetable shop there are no boundaries such as a
dividing wall or a dividing board, they only mark it with vegetables that are at the end of their shop.

fourth. The payment method in this market must be in cash, not by transfer, credit card and so on.

fifth . there are no facilities for buyers like other shops such as fans or air conditioners, sitting chairs and
so on.

sixth. There is no sign of the seller, such as the seller's uniform or other special things, so it is a little
difficult to distinguish between the seller and the buyer.

seventh. sellers tend not to force to buy their goods, just invite.

eighth. Buyers are not served like in stores such as malls, minimarkets and others because there are
many buyers.

ninth. The items for sale are not labeled with a price, therefore there is a lot of communication between
sellers and buyers such as asking for prices.
tenth. Items purchased must be weighed first, can be weighed by the seller or ourselves.

eleventh. There are no special rules for visiting the ruko market.

At this time several shops in the Rukoh market also provide delivery services where we can order the
goods we want via cellphone and later the sellers will pack the items we have chosen and hand them
over to the courier to be delivered to the house of the person who ordered.

In the ruko market area there are also many food vendors with their carts, of course they sell around the
market area because there are many visitors. It was a bit difficult to conduct an interview with a trader I
met because of the large number of customers at that time. Shows that this market has a lot of fans,
both day and night. One thing that I noticed about this market is that because of its location on the side
of the road, it sometimes causes traffic jams

that was the result of my observation. I personally and as a woman I am more comfortable shopping at
public markets like this rukoh market, because the goods are quite complete and fresh and there are
also no preservatives, especially vegetables, and of course the prices are negotiable. And I'm sure there
are many women who share the same opinion as me.
