KL International Book Fair 2008 - "Book Empowers"

This is an annual event not to be missed. Thankfully last Saturday, my afternoon class was cancelled and so I took the opportunity to go to the book fair in KL. I happily bought home three books (Ibn Khaldun: His Life and Works by Mohammad Abdullah Enan (first published by Muhammad Ashraf in 1941), In the Time of Mishmish by Alijah Gordon and How to Write a Thesis by Azirah Hashim (I need this too :p) and a 2001 issue of National Geographic mag for RM5.

Quick, tomorrow is the last day for final bargain! From 10am - 9pm, at Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC), KL. See their website for more details!

Here are some of the scenes at the Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC).

..the crowd of mostly young girls thronged the MPH Publishing booth to have a closer look at the Angkasawan Negara, Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor. Launching his new book I guess.
