Suara Kami 2011 a success! PM Najib attended it, RaNia and Nelly rock the show!


He came as a surprise to all the spectators when our Prime Minister, Dato' Sri Najib Razak accompanied by his wife arrived at 'Suara Kami' spidey dome. Najib said he attended the concert to be with Malaysia’s younger generation and he certainly did. We appreciate his effort in joining the concert with us despite his busy schedule as our PM.  Think of this, he came, he saw and he conquered? Let us be honest here, Najib came and saw it but he didn’t conquered it. Rania and Nelly did.



In short, ‘Suara Kami’ was a success. No doubt, the spotlight was Nelly performing. It is no longer a dream to see him performing.  Publicity for ‘Suara Kami’ was superb. We can hear them making noise in Facebook, twitter and among the public but from my personal opinion, the organizer should emphasize on the purpose of this concert more next time. I bet not many know on the purpose. Providing free entertainment? That isn’t a purpose. Entertainment tagged along when we achieved our purpose.


‘Suara Kami’ was a free concert for all. The tickets can be booked from the website and you just need to collect it from the booth in stadium. By giving out tickets through reservation, lots of tickets are wasted when no one claim it. Tickets can be seen on the floor while walking into the stadium. What a waste. Being typical Malaysian and given the “freedom” to book up to 4 tickets per person, the greedy one will book to the maximum even though they don’t have that numbers going.  I am one good example of that!


‘Suara Kami’ was held in conjunction with 15th Anniversary of Astro and in celebration of our Malaysia Day as well. Be thankful to Astro and whoever related for making this happened. ‘Suara Kami’: The most happening event of the year!


Among the local artists and bands that performed are Faizal Tahir, Pop Shuvit, Hujan, Yuna and Stacy. Our Superman, FT was the most energetic in his performance. He even climbed up to the post and sing. Noh Salleh of Hujan was wearing Malaysia football team jersey and that fit the purpose of the concert: celebrate Malaysia Day.




We have Soul Krazy on the stage as well. They showed us why they deserve to be chosen as the winner for Astro Battleground 2010.



Everyone cheered and roared when Pop Shuvit performed. I was so into their performance that I forgot to take any of photos or videos of them.  Shiettt!

Then, Kedahan-born Yuna entertained us with her indie music. I want to say this again, Yuna was born in Kedah: the place where I grow up.


Guitarist fans were amused by legendary Rock Guitarist Collaboration between Man Kidal, Joe Wings, Kit Search and Hillary Ang. Seeing the Fantastic Four to perform is like watching Eric Cantona, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville and Edwin van dar Saar coming out of retirement and play a football match. It was awesome!




Naresh Iyer was the first international artist to perform. Chinmayi Sripada was next and duet with Naresh.



Teenagers can be seen screaming, shouting and jumping with joy when Hins Cheung was introduced to the stage.  He sung two songs before RaNia dance their sweat out in their performance. 






RaNia dance so close to the crowds that I almost feel like I wanted to grab them down to be with us. I never listen to any of their song but I just want to grab them! :0










Next, Nelly and co. rapped to the Malaysians crowds. 'Party People' was the first followed by 'Hot in here'. Fergie and Kelly Rowland are not there to duet the two songs. 'Dilemma' and 'Just a Dream' were the last two songs by Nelly.
