PESTA BUKU ASEAN 2026!

 On 4th of July 2026, yes i visited a book fest again, but in Penang! HAhah! That makes me visit 2 BOOK EVENTS THIS YEAR! YEAH! 

Alright, this time's event was in a WHOLE NEW CONVENTION CENTRE! PENANG WATERFRONT CONVENTION CENTRE YALL! 

the parking was spacious, really. not as cluttered like any other con parkings.!

the escalator was 90 degrees tall! 

the carpet was luxuriosu! its giving the hotel vibes! but its a con!!

the view was ok!

okayokay lets get into the event!

this was the main entrance!

And at the entrance, you'll get a FREE photoshoot!
You can get both physical and digital copy!

this is the digital copy! :D me!

Alright, when i stepped in the event hall, IT WAS REAAAAAAAALLY HUGE! HUGE-R THAN PBKL! It was so preeeeeeeeeeeeeeetty and hype yall! but i didnt take any photos of the entrance huhu!

Best part was there's a concert, and a local famous cartoonist Ujang! :D

Yep i met him! 

He was lowk nice! I didnt expect him to be there lol! seriously! 

Now i know i cant really trust tiktok.. they're all mean! kata takda buku TAPI BELAMBAK JA ADA! DIORANG JE BOSAN! CIS!

an awesome HANG TUAH book that costs rm300! I REALLY WANT TO BUY IT BUT I DONT HAVE MONEY WEYHHHH

AWESOME HISTORIC BOOKS I TOOK!! sadly, money wasnt enough and i was a bit ghairah so bye bye~

i finally bought these RISE PRODUCTIONS comics! 

there's also food selling at the convention centre too. sadly (again) the promotions were all 90% AI... so sad....

a viral mochi i ate. so squeezy and chewey.

360 panaroma view!

such a nice view... subhanallah.

Overall, 10/10 experience. i recommended to everyone to visit every year ( if ada ) 

I also learnt that i need to bring my own money everytime i visit a con or an event so that i dont need to depend on my sister and parents. hahah, freedom BABEY!
