Malaysian Premier Literary Prize ceremony will be held at The Palace of the Golden Horses hotel, Seri Kembangan, tonight. The prizes will be given by Malaysian Prime Minister.
The results - as we already knew when the announcement was made last week - show us the 2014 Malaysian literary best works for various genres as far as the judges are concerned. But how its go after this recognition, depends to Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP) and their publishers to capitalize it.
The books are not to meant only to stay on bookshelves in the bookstores. Certainly not for the books which won such a pretsigous prize. For that we hope DBP and their counterpart will organize more event not just to promote the books, but also to critique and discuss it.
