What? Why all bookstores bankrupt, people don’t buy books anymore? I’m running out of place to buy books.

Hope MPH & Popular can survive

1) People prefer ebooks these days.

2) Malaysians don't read.

3) People into religion book. Each religion has one book, and that's enough for them.

4) Books has become expensive. Buying book has become a T20 thing only now.

5) People into TikTok now.

6) Senior people has begin to read from WhatsApp university library.

Books expensive?

I don't want to reveal, but there is a lot of other ways I can get them second hand for free.

and then there are many pesta buku out there organized by Popular, MPH, Bookaccess to sell them cheaper.

Plus Bookexcess, though not so cheap but much cheaper compared to Tsutsaya.

Maybe the kind of book you prefer to read is still cheap.

The kind of book that I have been interested in are expensive.

Last time I can get what I want to read for RM40-60.

Now what I want to read can be RM80-RM100.

Again, we all have difference preference when it comes to reading, just like music.

I'm glad you found a free source for you to get the kind of books you like. smile.gif
