In the age of technology, fewer people are picking up books to read. However, Jacqueline Ng successfully built an alternative book empire with the main mission to make books affordable and accessible for everyone. We chat with her about her passion for books, the challenges she had to overcome, and how she came up with an idea to start this business with her husband, Andrew Yap.
