One
day, my mentor shared a link in our group chat, announcing that he had
published an e-book. Students who were interested could purchase it directly
from him, and those who wished could also help promote the e-book through a
platform and earn commissions. At that
time, I did not have the financial capacity to invest further, so the idea of
becoming a platform member and promoting e-books as a form of knowledge-based
income seemed like a reasonable option. That
was how I joined the platform as a member.
The
platform is called 《Klikjer》. Besides my mentor’s
e-book, it features works by other authors and allows creators to list their
own e-books for sale. What makes this platform particularly distinctive is that
all the e-books available are written in Malay. To me, this was both refreshing
and intriguing. Since joining the
platform, I have not yet purchased any of the e-books. However, I know that one
day, I will start reading them directly from my phone—anytime and anywhere,
especially while waiting, traveling, or winding down at night. The convenience
of not having to carry physical books and the ability to access reading
material instantly are what make e-books especially appealing to me.
Having
received a Malay-medium education during my secondary school years, I am quite
comfortable with the language. Reading and writing in Malay come naturally to
me, and sometimes my comprehension is even faster than when reading Chinese. On
this platform, I see not just books, but a wider world of knowledge conveyed
through the Malay language.
In
today’s information-driven society, access to knowledge itself is a valuable
asset. Gaining exposure to another language and understanding a different
cultural perspective opens up new ways of seeing the world.
If
you are also curious about the wisdom, experiences, and knowledge of the Malay
community in Malaysia, you are welcome to visit my e-book page from time to
time. Perhaps, when you are ready, you may find a book there that speaks to
you.
