#KitaKawan with Gerakbudaya

From August 8 to the end of September, Gerakbudaya will run its #KitaKawan campaign to help promote its fellow indie bookstores.

Spend a minimum of RM50 on any books published by Gerakbudaya and its imprints (SIRD and Cherita Books) at any of the participating bookstores, and you will get campaign coupons and a bookmark.

Those coupons can be redeemed in the Gerakbudaya store for a beautiful #KitaKawan stamp book with art from Perempuan Melawan and a one-year Gerakbudaya membership.

The participating bookstores are Lit Books in PJ and Bangsar, Tintabudi in TTDI, Riwayat in KL, The Bibliophile Bookshop in PJ, Hikayat Fandom in GMBB, and Monsoon Books in Damansara Uptown.

Find out more on Gerakbudaya’s Instagram page.
