Abstract
Indonesia must be proud of being ranked 8th in the world’s largest book printer. But does Indonesian literacy have to be proud of its apathetic interest in reading as well? Indonesia has an area of 1.905 million km2 from Sabang to Merauke and Miangas Island to Rote Island with a population of 269 million people or 3.49% of the total world population which is now the majority occupied by millennials. The millennial generation virus is opening the way for the alpha generation in advancing the quality of education by combining the existence of literacy and having creativity in managing social dama so that it can recognize and understand the urgency of literacy for future educational civilizations. Indonesian youths are now free from illiteracy and therefore there is no reason to argue that young people or Indonesian millennials do not know to read.
