All the bookstores will close down sooner or later….when is last time you bought a book at a bookstore? Most people go there read magazines FOC.

Never check Jurong demographics before opening shop? Open hawker stalls and brothels there more business.

Sad news. I just bought a book and 2 magazines from this bookstore back in Jan. I'm a book collector, not reader
