Great news! On January 2nd in a conference call, the Global BBT unanimously voted to *continue* the special augmented book points for Arabic and Farsi books! So it did not stop at the end of the year, and is still active right now and for the whole of 2018 (at least)!
This is also nicely timed for the long awaited launch of the new Arabic Gita which will be awarding the book distributors with 6 (six) points for each sale instead of the normal 2 points for a Gita. So please feel free to get this good news out to all the sankirtan devotees of your area.
The Arabic Bhagavad-gita is being printed as we write and should be available from Bhaktivedanta Library Services (BLS) around the end of February. It is softbound, 848 pages and instead of just 8 pp color insert
(like the English Gita), the Arabic Gita has 16 pp. The size is 10.5cm x 18cm x 3 cm. There are 28 copies in a box. We do not have the final sankirtan price as yet, but it will be around 3 euro per book. BLS will initially be getting 4,000 BG in stock.
With this good news, we look forward to helping you distribute more Arabic and Farsi books throughout Europe.
Your servants in the mission of Srila Prabhupada’s Vani, Visnu Murti and Laksmipriya.
