World Largest Floating Book Fair At Kuching

MV Logos Hope, a mission ship converted into the world’s largest floating book fair, is calling on four ports in Malaysia. The ship, manned by an international crew of 45 nationalities, has already called on Penang and Port Klang since August. It is currently berthed at Kuching Port, Sarawak and will be there until 13th Nov, whereupon it will sail to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.

The world’s largest floating book fair brings with it more than five thousand book titles. Since this is a Christian mission ship, most of the titles, sourced from around the world, are Christian-themed. The Logos Hope, because it sails around the world, has its own currency. Books are priced in units. In Malaysia, 100 units equal RM8.

Love

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, It does not boast, It is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
