CSR

Asia Books Co., Ltd. has always been committed to our policy in support of social and charitable activities, especially those promoting learning English and reading English-language books among children and young people and this led

to “Readers’ Theatre” project in 2009 which is an English reading competition for children aged 9-16 years old. Main objectives of this project are to create a reading culture, promote the use of English language, encourage creativity in children and support them to express themselves in a positive way. Once this project was launched in 2009, invitations were sent out to all schools in Thailand requesting for participation of their students in this project and the fact that more than 100 teams of students entered this competition proved this project a success and it could be considered a promising first step in creating and promoting a reading culture in Thai society. Thus, Asia Books is proud to officially launch the Readers’ Theatre Project Season 2 in 2010 and invites children and young people aged 9-16 years old in Thailand to upload a video file of their English reading performance at www.asiabooks.

com by 30th August 2010 or contact Readers’ Theatre Hotline at tel. 0-2715-9000 ext. 3809 for more information. To further develop a wider reading culture in Thai society, Asia Books does not stop at the Readers’ Theatre Project Season 2 but moves forward to promote learning and English reading among general and disadvantaged populations such as students in rural and remote areas, foundations for the blind in Thailand by distributing CDs of fantastic English reading performances from the Readers’ Theatre 2009 prize-winning groups which consisted of energetic and talented students.

Lastly, Asia Books would like to give an update on our “U Give and U Get” project which has been continuously implemented to fulfill the dream of children in rural areas. Customers can donate their English language books at Asia Books, Bookazine and Book Outlet and recently we delivered donated books worth Bt.324,013 in total to three schools in Yasothorn Province; namely Phon Ngam School (410 books), Sai Moon School (312 books) and Sing Samakkei School (370 books). We, Asia Books, Bookazine and Book Outlet, are truly glad to serve as

“The Destination for your Book Donation.”

The Asia Books Library for Kids project was first initiated by Asia Books Co., Ltd. and the main purpose of this project is to donate English language books to needy libraries in schools, universities and organizations in Bangkok and other provinces to help Thai children and young children cultivate an interest in reading and realize the importance of reading, especially English language books.
