Q: Published iBook not available in my home country

Hi all, I just published my first iBook from Singapore. The book is listed on 51 countries' iBook Stores except my home country's - Singapore. Any idea how I can list it here? The local community I work with cannot access the book with a local iTunes account. Any advice appreciated.

    As far as I can see there are only free (old) books currently available in the Singapore store. Until if/when that changes (we are fellow users, we won't know when that might be) you are unlikely to be able to publish books into the Singapore iBookstore. Depending upon how you created the book could you, for example, give them epub versions ?

    If your home country is not among the 51, then you will need to publish your book in another store which does sell there.  Amazon/Kindle perhaps?
