countries on TV2 and Suria channels.
Kuala Lumpur was the host for the 12th edition of the concert in 2018. The theme
was “Kebersamaan” #kitageng, to celebrate the diversity of the Malaysian and
Singaporean entertainment industries which has long cemented the friendship of
both nations. Twenty seven songs were performed including a medley that
combined singers from both countries.
YB Tuan Gobind Singh Deo, Minister of Communications and Multimedia
Malaysia expressed his hope for the relationship of both Malaysia and Singapore
to further strengthen, while working together to mutually benefit from the
developments in the media sector. Discussions and communications will also be
more frequently held between both parties to leverage on the growing media
industry over the years.
He stressed that in the long run, Malaysia and Singapore will benefit greatly by
learning and working with one another.
The event was also a good example of the close relationship between the two
broadcasting agencies and between Malaysia and Singapore in general. From
Singaporean perspective, the programme provided an opportunity for artists from
both countries to collaborate and create new, innovative content while providing
an opportunity for viewers to enjoy the cultural aspects that both countries share
in common.
