HAVE YOU WRITTEN AN ORIGINAL STORY INSPIRED BY ASIA?

The AFCC Scholastic Asian Book Award (SABA) is the joint initiative of Scholastic Asia and Singapore Book Council (SBC). SABA will recognize children’s writers of Asian origin who are taking the experiences of life, spirit, and thinking in different parts of Asia to the world at large. The award also aims to promote the understanding of the Asian experience and its expression in innovative and creative forms.

THE OBJECTIVES OF THE SABA ARE AS FOLLOWS:

  • To recognise excellence in fiction in Asian stories for children.
  • To showcase the diversity of literary talent within Asia.
  • To encourage and inspire more books and stories with Asian content.

Submit your unpublished manuscript! Application is now open for SABA 2022. The closing date for SABA 2022 is 31 Aug 2021, 5.00pm (Singapore Standard Time). Results will be declared at the Asian Festival of Children Content in 2022.
