A madrasah ibtidaiyah (Islamic elementary boarding school) student and an adult read in the Children of the Nation Library in Sukopuro village, Jabung district, Malang, East Java, in early April. The library in the village was established 19 years ago and currently has over 58,000 books.
A literacy movement designed to improve reading and writing skills as well as to implement knowledge in real life has developed across the nation. The activists are young people, housewives and police personnel.
