Local think tank Collective Wisdom Policy Centre yesterday urged the government to promote a reading culture among residents by improving facilities in the city’s libraries and organising reading promotion activities covering different segments of the population.
The think tank is affiliated to the Macau General Union of Neighbourhood Associations, commonly known as Kai Fong.
The association hosted a press conference yesterday at its office in Avenida de Horta e Costa about local residents’ reading habits and the current status of the city’s libraries, apart from making suggestions to the government on the promotion of a reading culture. The press conference coincided with yesterday’s World Book Day.
