KEMBARA MBC
MBC sudah hampir setahun beroperasi. Di Semenanjung, hanya Perlis dan Kelantan sahaja yang kami belum sampai.
Kini kami sedang menyiapkan sebuah buku “Kembara Buku” (tajuk sementara) bagi menceritakan perjalanan MBC ke seluruh pelosok tanah air.
Apa lagi yang patut ditulis?
Apa yang anda ingin tahu?.
Terima kasih.
BUKU FIXI
Penerbit “baru”, Buku Fixi telah mengejutkan industri buku Malaysia dengan pelbagai jenis kejutan. Dahulu ramai orang berpendapat buku Fixi tidak sesuai dibaca oleh pelajar dan remaja. Kini mungkin persepsi tersebut telah berubah.
Hakikatnya, buku Fixi memberikan diskaun yang paling tinggi kepada pengedar/penjual buku berbanding penerbit lain.
Hakikat seterusnya ialah, kemana-mana sahaja kami pergi, pembeli akan bertanya “ada buku fixi tak?”. Ia memang laris.
Berikut adalah beberapa buah buku Fixi yang “tidak sesuai”:
Buku2 Yang tidak sesuai untuk pelajar ialah:
1. Cekik
2. Gantung
3. Tabu
4. Kasino
5. Mental
6. Kougar
7. Pecah.
Mohon kemaskini jika ada maklumat baharu …

MBC datang Ke sini kerana dijemput dan mengiringi Puan Noraminah yang beraktiviti Di Sekolah ini.
Owner of closed Swansea book shop sets up mobile store
http://www.southwales-eveningpost.co.uk/Owner-closed-Swansea-book-shop-sets-mobile-store/story-19560856-detail/story.html
T was a sad day for lovers of the written word when Swansea’s Dylan Thomas Bookshop closed its doors last year after more than 42 years of trading in the city.
The store had built up an international reputation for its stock, which included rare books, ones of Welsh interest, as well as those by and about the poet himself.
The business attracted discerning book lovers from across the globe, but in the digital age it faced increasing competition from the likes of Amazon, eBay, Kindles and smart phones.
But now the man behind the shop, antiquarian bookseller Jeff Towns, is once again getting his show on the road — this time literally.
Having bought a giant former mobile library, Jeff is launching Dylan’s Mobile Bookstore, stacked with a selection of antiquarian and second-hand books, to become possibly the first business of its kind in the country.
It has up to 5,000 books on board to browse or buy, and Jeff will be touring the country — starting on Saturday at the inaugural Uplands Market, before heading to this year’s National Eisteddfod.
And next year it has been booked to appear at the Laugharne Weekend, the Welsh Literature Festival at Dinefwr Castle, the National Eisteddfod in Llanelli, the Do Not Go Gentle festival in Swansea, and Welsh language book fairs in Bala and Aberystwyth.
Jeff, sometimes known as Jeff the Books, said: “Times have changed, and people have changed. So too have their habits, and the book business is no exception. It’s a very different beast these days, but hopefully this will provide a lovely new opportunity for lovely people to buy lovely old books.
“We’re going to take it to the people, charabanc style, to literary festivals, music festivals, art festivals, in fact anywhere that will have us.
“Places where like-minded folk can hop on the bus, hang out, listen to music and poetry and hopefully buy a few books.”
It is not the first time Dylan’s Bookstore brand has had to re-invent itself. He had a shop in Salubrious Passage, off Wind Street, but when the pubs and club moved in, the area changed and he moved on. He then had a shop with a cafe in the Dylan Thomas Centre but had to leave.
He added: “I tried to open in King Edward Road but finally realised people just aren’t reading like they used to. Books can be bought online with such ease now, and you can’t compete with the likes of Amazon.”
The mobile store came about after Jeff brought the shutters down on his final bookstore and sold 30,000 of his remaining books to a fellow dealer in Hay-on-Wye. But he still had about 25,000 of his best books stored in a lock-up and needed to get rid of them.

Pengecualian cukai buku ringankan beban keluarga berpendapatan rendah
Utusan Borneo:
Posted on October 12, 2014, Sunday
SIBU: Pengecualian Cukai Barangan dan Perkhidmatan (GST) terhadap buku seperti kamus, buku bacaan, latihan dan agama serta rujukan sedikit sebanyak dapat membantu meringankan beban golongan keluarga berpendapatan rendah.
Seorang pemilik kedai buku dan alat tulis di sini yang hanya dikenali Wong berkata, langkah pengecualian itu juga dapat mengurangkan perbelanjaan terutama mereka yang mempunyai ramai anak bersekolah.
Katanya umum mengetahui ramai ibu bapa cuba berjimat cermat untuk mengelak daripada berbelanja secara berlebihan.
Namun, dalam soal pendidikan keadaan itu agak berbeza kerana ibu bapa perlu berbelanja bagi menyediakan keperluan pendidikan anak-anak.
“Dalam pasaran hari ini, buku-buku yang diperlukan dijual pada harga sangat mahal.
“Ia adalah kesan daripada kenaikan kos percetakan serta pengangkutan yang terpaksa ditanggung.
“Bayangkan sekiranya sebuah keluarga itu mempunyai tiga orang anak bersekolah.
“Sudah tentu mereka memerlukan perbelanjaan besar untuk menyediakan keperluan persekolahan anak mereka,” katanya ketika mengulas Bajet 2015 yang dibentangkan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak kelmarin.
Wong turut berharap alatalat tulis seperti pen dan pensil juga bebas daripada dikenakan GST.
Sementara itu, Ketua Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Lanang Law Hin Chin berkata kenaikan Bantuan Rakyat 1Malaysia (BR1M) tahun depan dilihat tidak mempunyai keupayaan membantu memangkinkan ekonomi rakyat.
Law berkata tindakan menaikkan jumlah BR1M bukan cara sesuai untuk menyelesaikan krisis ekonomi.
Katanya kerajaan perlu mencari jalan lebih komprehensif serta rancangan sistematik jangka panjang dalam meningkatkan sosioekonomi rakyat.
“Ini termasuk menyediakan lebih banyak peluang pekerjaan dengan jumlah pendapatan lumayan.
“Ketika ini, kerajaan perlu mencari jalan meringankan beban rakyat berikutan tindakan melaksanakan GST tahun depan,” ujarnya.
Mengambil contoh kenaikan harga petrol RON95, Law menjelaskan bahawa Malaysia masih kurang sistem dan bilangan pengangkutan awam berbanding negara-negara maju.
Rakyat negara ini masih bergantung sepenuhnya kepada kenderaan persendirian untuk bergerak dari satu lokasi ke lokasi lain.
“Secara keseluruhan Bajet 2015 tidak memberi fokus jelas tentang hasrat kerajaan membentuk ekonomi rakyat,” katanya.
