With an aim to encourage a reading culture, nurturing an appreciation of language and improving literacy skills in Malaysia, the Cooler Lumpur festival presents #Word; a jam-packed weekend full of engaging topics featuring both local and international world-class writers and panelists from all over the world, gathered right here in our backyard for the lecture series, workshops, and panel discussions among other things.
