KUALA LUMPUR, May 28 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the practice of reading can help shape a more mature and broad-minded society in facing an increasingly complex world.
In a Facebook post, he said books are not only a source of knowledge but also educate society to be more patient in thinking and wiser in making judgments.
“Books teach us to be more patient in thought, more mature in judgement and not easily swept away by a culture of condemnation or short-lived sensationalism.
“Insya-Allah, tomorrow I will launch the 2026 Kuala Lumpur International Book Fair (PBAKL) as a sign of continued support for the culture of knowledge and reading among the people, particularly the younger generation,” he said.
Anwar said he took the opportunity during the Aidiladha holiday yesterday to read several of his favourite books from various fields, including literature, while reflecting on the increasingly challenging times.
In a video shared in the post, Anwar also recited poetry from “Dari Derita Bangsa”, related to his struggle and imprisonment in 1999, which also touched on the resilience of his wife, Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, in facing challenges during the Reformasi era.
The 43rd PBAKL 2026 will be held from May 29 to June 7 at the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur. — Bernama
