A Flashback: BookFest@Singapore 2006 – 2009
2008
2008 being a challenging year for us all, the focus of BookFest@Singapore 2008 was on achieving success through an upgrading of skills. At the fair, POPULAR Chairman Mr. Chou Cheng Ngok expressed this sentiment when he said, “When times are good, we read for leisure and enjoyment; when times are challenging, we read for solutions. Books are not luxury products. They are out life.”
The stage also promoted local authors including the launch of Heirloom Recipes, a joint collaboration between Popular and MediaCorp News, while the crowds cheered on our very own JJ Lin and Rui En.
精彩回顾： 新加坡海外华文书市 （2006年至2009年）
2008
2008年是个充满挑战的一年，而第三届海外华文书市的重点在于提升技能以取得成功。大众集团主席周曾锷先生在书市的开幕仪式上致辞时也阐明了这一点。他说：“世道好的时候，我们把阅读当成休闲和享受，当遇上充满挑战的时刻，我们以阅读来寻找解决方案。书不是奢侈品。他们是我们的生命。”
当然也少不过本地作家和艺人的精彩表演。大众书局和新传媒新闻再次合作，推出《家传菜》一书，而林俊杰和瑞恩的现场表演吸引了几千名粉丝前来支持。
