IT was 9am, and Sim Cho Seng sat alone at his storybook rental stall in Sibu Central Market, patiently waiting for customers.
“Every day has been the same for me for years now. Walk-in customers are rare these days. People just aren’t reading physical books anymore. What can I do? I still have so many books in my library,” lamented Sim, 72.
