"When there is too much trash, our environment will become dirty and it"s not healthy. That"s why I look for trash to borrow a book," he says.
他说:“如果垃圾太多,我们的环境就会变脏,这样不健康。这也是我捡垃圾换书的原因。”

The literacy rate for above-15-year-olds in Indonesia is around 96 percent, but a September report by the World Bank warned that the pandemic will leave more than 80% of 15-year-olds below the minimum reading proficiency level identified by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.
