Does Taiwan Love to Read?

"The popularity of the Taipei International Book Exhibition seems to indicate that we live in a nation that loves to read, but a closer examination may point to a different conclusion, for most of the crowds visiting the fair have actually been attracted by the comics and animation pavilion, while the literary section received much less attention."
Copy from CTS news program.

As we can realize that the sentence can be described the Taipei International book Exhibition is "people mountain people sea". But most of people seem attracted by comics and animation pavilion that mentioned from the report only. In my words, it's not a good way to learn or to have knowledges from the comics. We have to get those information from some specific books, for example, we can learn the literature or culture from the novel of the worldwide, or know about the technology form the science books.

It's really import to cultivate reading habit in the childhood and develop competitiveness through extensive reading. It's not easy to request the child to sit on the chair to read if we miss this time. Those children can't concentrate on something. And then they may lose more opportunities to learn the sense they have to learn. They will only tell you what the actor in comic do something.

The language books and non-fictions could be found in exhibition besides literature books. The people who need this kind of books could have some discount in this exhibition. But we still can't find any book from China. It's not a good policy to forbid the people to learn the knowledge from the China. We hope the related departments can fact up this problem. They have no reasons to divest of Taiwan reader's rights.
