That's what usually happens at these types of places, "SWAPMEETS".
Wait till we hear about the arrests on the illegal drugs that a couple of merchants are selling.
Scary stuff! Where are our fearless leaders to protect us. I know...
Protecting the business interests of the landlords to these merchants.
Keep an eye on those campaign contributions!
Drugs? That’s a very serious allegation.
What does this story have to do with political corruption?
I'm sure there are many merchants all over the county doing the same thing.
Selling pirated copies of many items.
To connect this alleged crime to anyone else other than Mr. Felix is irresponsible and a stretch.
To the publisher(s) of this website and it’s readers, a reminder:
Forget not that the 1st amendment gives us the right of freedom of speech and with that right also comes the responsibility not to slander or misrepresent the truth. Let’s not misuse that right!
Also why not post positive stories? It seems that only bad things happen in Lynwood and that its elected officials are corrupt and never do anything good for Lynwood.
People lets be realistic about this issue. Mr. Felix has not been the first and last to sell illegal merchandise to be judged and pointed in this manner as if it was a phenomenon. There's many other "Swapmeets" that sell numerouse amounts of illegal merchandise. All of you are aware of that fact, but in this circumstance it is to your advantage to ignore it.Why? because Mr. Felix is a vendor from Plaza Mexico of course The City members as a Whole not excluding , but including everyone will take advantage of every misstep to damage Plaza Mexico's reputation. Is it necessary for me to outline why? I think I do, because the city instead of being proud of the recognition not only the plaza but even the city is getting, they seem to show the opposite, because Plaza Mexico is covering all the bases & maybe even interfering with the city's projects.Now from what I read in this blog that they're trying to construct in Long Beach blvd, now that gives them even more to hate & talk about.This issue has much more bias opinions that misrepresented the truth. This website was created to outline and stop political corruption, so to the publishers I say you focus on that and not on these insignificant topics. Also, one more suggestion you don't have to go far because corruption is found in the main head of Lynwood, the board members and that's nothing new either just that they use issues like this to cover up for their own corruption.

I agree with the previous comment and this issue doesn't have to do much with the purpose of this website. Instead of pointing out what Plaza Mexico do or doesn't do they should spend that time fixing the corruption found in the city board members that just seek for their own benefit and not for the benefit of the people. They're just interested in money and maybe that's why they're just jelouse of Plaza Mexico. Plaza Mexico does sell quality products, I shop there and as a resident in Lynwood I say publishers please focus on more important issues that deal with corruption in the city and not on trying to damage other people's repuation to use it for your own advantage.
To the publishers of this web site:
What was the purpose to post this issue? If it was to destroy the recognition that Plaza Mexico is getting, let me tell you that all you did the opposite. This just brought out the envy that all of you have for Plaza Mexico and didn't miss the opportunity to post this because to begin with, this issue doesn't go in accordance of the purpose of this website. So just put your personal problems aside because we don't want to know them and just face it that Plaza Mexico is an awesome place that has a lot to offer to the public. I really enjoy going there, So Plaza Mexico keep it up!! Just because the place isn't owned by the city like many wished doesn't make it a bad place. So publisher's be careful of the issues you post because it might turn out to be used against you.. and the city. Also next time I hope to read real corruption issues found in the city!
the city owns plaza mexico they gave pl mexico more than 7 millions,the city has waived licenses fee not one time,two times.i have more but ill share with you another day.

Por que no decimos nada por lo que en verdad hace ver fea a nuestra ciudad.

Ahora si se venden cosas inlegales en la Plaza Mexico no es pulpa de nadie mas del que lo compra . por que si tenemos quien lo compra tendermos quien lo venda.

Gracias por su comentario... Ya les dije no estoy a favor de nadie.. y si en relaidad ( que no lo dudo ) existen esas inregularidades tienen que ser enforsadas.. y eso solo se le atribulle a la ciudad code enforcement... esos son otros que no los dejan hacer su trabajo .
Es la responsabilidad de nosotros como residentes de lynwood hacer que el sistema trabaje.. digame no cree que tanta culpa tiene el que mata la vaca como el que le jala la pata...
gracias..
It is ashame that people will get on this site to talk about people with out having the facts. Sears and Montgomery Wards left Lynwood do to employees stealing too much, not because of raza moving to Lynwood. Mr.Chae has helped alot of people even before he desided to build Plaza Mexico. Do you even know how many people in Lynwood benefited by his help. Also you need to do your homework about the history of Lynwood before you say something that is not true. Years ago the old Montgomery Wards site was to be a shoping center with the Food-For-Less facing Imperial Hwy with a Marie Calandar facing Long Beach Bl. and their's alot more about the city you don't know so do your home work!!. talk about issues not lies and mis facts
para june 3, 2:58 tu dices que es codeenforment el que debe hacer su trabajo,cuando ciertos consejales les dicen a los empleados de la ciudad que no se metan con Plaza Mexico,como quieres que ellos hagan su trabajo.desde Rea,Richads,byrd,pedroza y Leti protejen a PLaza Mexico. que me dices sobre las licensia como pudo haber llegado la cuenta hasta 23,000.00 en 12/2003
