Abstract

Malaysian Booksellers Association president and Malaysian Book Industry Chamber chairman Keith Thong said factors such as the rising cost of living and social media distractions, among others, had contributed to the declining reading habit, compounded by the Covid-19 pandemic that had affected many businesses.

Data collected by the Malaysian Book Publishers Association revealed 95 bookstores in Malaysia have closed down since 2018, including 32 outlets in 2020.
