| ‘Seribu Tahun’ Taufik and Imran |
Excerpts from Berita Minggu…
When Taufik announced that he was going to sing his self-composed song Seribu Tahun at Simfoni Filem Nusantara Concert last Sunday at the Esplanade Concert Hall, there was some audience whispering… “ishhh, isn’t that Imran Ajmain’s song?”
Even then, the audience was seen amazed with Taufik’s performance which was clearly heartfelt with strong vocals and accompanied by the Singapore Malay Orchestra (OMS) which rocked the souls. Taufik’s performance was indeed mesmerized.
Not only the audience but also a group of Malaysian artistes who incidentally came to watch the show were shocked and asked same question while chatting up with the Medias outside the Hall. Even the journalist received email questioning the truth.
“After completing Hady Mirza’s album, I would work on my English album.” Said Taufik who is expected to be involved in a musical produced by Dick Lee early next year.

| Malay Music Award moves to Jakarta |
Singapore artistes will no longer have their own “Best Of” category in the regional Malay music award ceremony Anugerah Planet Muzik (APM).
Three Singapore-centric awards – Best Song (Singapore), Best Singapore Act and Best Album – which are decided by a panel of industry experts, have been dropped from the annual celebration of Malay music from Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia.
Ms Zakiah Halim, Vice-president of Malay, Indian and community programming with MediaCorp Radio which organises the nine-year-old event, says the omission will make the awards a truly regional industry event.

S'pore Day to draw 12,000
THIS year's Singapore Day will be celebrated on a bigger scale despite the economic downturn.
In fact, the one-day event to be held on April 25 at Hampton Court Palace, southwest of Central London, will cost more than double that of last year's in Melbourne.
'We asked ourselves whether we should continue with organising this event given the economic downturn. We went through the analyses, assessment, videos and feedback of overseas Singaporeans and we felt the firm response is yes we need to go ahead,' said Ms Quah Ley Hoon, Director, Overseas Singaporean Unit (OSU), at a media briefing on Wednesday.
