  Small Town Symbolism
Payakumbuh certainly is a friendly, lovely and seemingly easy-going town with a real human dimension, but at the same time it is a busy, lively, thriving city.
The importance and the growth of Payakumbuh nowadays, as it was in the past, is derived from its function as an important marketplace.
Though nowadays Payakumbuh has the status of an urban municipality (kotamadya), independent of the surrounding district (kabupaten), the most prominent place in town at the aforementioned crossroads or T-junction is occupied by the offices of the district head.

 [RantauNet] Penyidikan Darlis Ilyas
"Kami tidak dapat memeriksa Darlis tanpa izin langsung dari presiden," katanya di Padang, kemarin, menanggapi aksi anggota DPRD Payakumbuh yang memilih `menggembok` kantor Dewan sebagai wujud protes terhadap Pemda dan Polda Sumbar yang dinilai tidak serius menindaklanjuti proses penyidikan terhadap Darlis Ilyas.
Anggota DPRD Kota Payakumbuh, Selasa lalu (5/12), memenuhi janjinya menyerahkan `kunci` kantor Dewan kepada Gubernur Sumbar, yang diserahkan langsung oleh ketuanya, Chin Star, dan diterima Wakil Gubernur Fachri Ahmad.
Namun `kunci` tersebut bukan berbentuk fisik atau kunci betulan, melainkan berupa surat hasil keputusan DPRD setempat untuk menggembok kantor hingga keluarnya SK Non Aktif (NA) bagi Wali Kota Payakumbuh.
