The Big Bad Wolf (BBW) book sale is slated to end on May 2 at midnight.

As the closing date draws near, the organizer has geared up by restocking about 1 million new books.

Organizer PT Jaya Ritel Indonesia president director Uli Silalahi told The Jakarta Post on Friday that the stock featured new collections, ensuring that returning visitors would be able to find new books.

Uli also mentioned that the event would not do further promotion on the books.

“You should come as the books won't available elsewhere and the [discount] is [relatively] high,” said Uli.

In regards to standing in line, Uli said that although the venue at Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) in BSD, South Tangerang, constantly welcomes new visitors, standing in line was still manageable.

“Visitors keep coming in even at 4 a.m.,” she said, revealing the event had welcomed about 300,000 visitors so far. (kes)
