Reading Is Part Of Our Life

We might think that reading is just for the student who are going to seat for the exam with the aim that they would pass the exam with flying colour. It seems that this thought has made our people today lazy to read as they are much more busy with other thing. It is hardly to see people reading in the public transport or even while waiting for the bus at the bustop. This is due to the lack of awareness among our people.

How we want to improve this situation to become better than what we are seeing now. Of course the big solution for this problem is by cultivate our children starting at the young age to read variety of book.We as parents has to start it by read them a story book every day before they sleep. This will attract their interest to know more about the content of the book. Lastly they would fall in love towards reading.

We also can promote reading among people by launch a study corner in the shopping complex.Why we should put it at the shopping complex? It is because shopping complex is the place were many people would come. So it is more easier to attract this people to read books or any other reading materials. The entrance fee of this study corner should be free for every people that come. Then the book should varies according to age of readers and be updated every month.This study corner would increase percentage successful of attracting people interest towards reading.

Beside study corner, mobile library should also be done whether by goverment or none goverment organization. The mobile library should be send especially to rural area which most of them are lack of facility such as library. We always found bigger library such as 'Perpustakaan Negara' where it provide varies of book only at big city. This cause rural areas are not being exposed to the important of reading. Thus by providing mobile library, people especially at rural ares would have an oppurtunities to read.

The content of the book itself should be more interesting to attract our people to read. Lets look at the example of Harry Potter's book which are been written by J.K.Rowling. People are being carzy to by her books although the price are so expensive. The latest addition of her book which title The Deathly Hallow, the price was very expensive, that's about RM120 and above,but its seem has attract many people to buy it.Why is this happen? It is because J.K.Rowling has success in writing the most attracting story. Thus the advice to the new writter or even the old one, create the interesting story so that we can improve reading among our people.

For the conclusion, many thing can be done actually to improve reading habit among our people. It is depend for our people to be aware about the important of reading. A lot of effort also are not use if our people do not appreciate it. So lets change our attitude together and make reading as a part of our life.
