China Square has taken the country by storm.

On the one hand, consumers are appealing for the stay of the mall as it is alleged the goods being sold there are of a higher quality and are priced at almost a third of the prices of other local retailers. On the other hand, local retailers want China Square invalidated and the Chinese traders disallowed to participate in retail business.
