Tokosue - Buku & Seni

Sue Ahmad, Owner, Tokosue

11-Aug-22 21:00

Tokosue - Buku & Seni

Tokosue, an indie bookstore, started its life during the pandemic, as a way for its owner, Sue Ahmad to sell her self-published book. It soon grew into a reliable sanctuary for indie book lovers out there to get their books. Not satisfied with that, and feeling the need to fulfil her lifelong dream of owning a real bookstore, its owner, Sue Ahmad opened the brick-and-mortar version of the bookstore in Wisma Central earlier this year. She joins us on the show to share her journey, from self-publishing DIY zines to opening Tokosue for the community.
