There were five research subjects, namely one manager, three activity participants, and one TBM facilitator in Pipitan village. Based on research findings, there are internal and external variables that contribute to local people's interest in reading TBM (external aspects have a greater influence because people generally need invitations, persuasion and encouragement from other people).
