HER time spent volunteering with Voice Of the Children, a non-governmental organisation that advocates for children’s rights in Malaysia, clearly left a impact on Quek Sue Yian. Coupled with her experience at the Asian Festival of Children’s Content in Singapore in May 2012, it got her to thinking about how to get quality books to poor children.
Hence, publishing company Magicbird was born – and alongside it, the One For One initiative, where for each book purchased, another is given to a under-served child or community.
