When Malaysians queue for books


IT’S not every day you see Malaysians queuing up for hours – not for food or concert tickets but for books.

But that’s exactly what happened when BookXcess held its three-day books giveaway recently. Crowds gathered as early as 8am at the store, excited to claim up to 10 free books each from the staggering 200,000 that were on offer over three days.
