Fans to wait a bit longer: Hetty Koes Endang concert in Miri rescheduled to Sept 13

MIRI (June 6): Fans of Indonesian music legend Hetty Koes Endang will have to wait a little longer for her much-anticipated concert here, as organisers Borneo SuperAct Events have officially announced the postponement of the 'Hetty Koes Endang & Friends' concert to Sept 13, 2025. Originally scheduled for July 5 at the Miri Indoor Stadium, the concert has been rescheduled to allow the organisers additional time to fine-tune preparations and deliver what they describe as a 'highest quality' experience befitting the renowned diva and her fans. In a statement yesterday, Borneo SuperAct Events cited unavoidable circumstances during concurrent preparations as the key reason for the deferment. 'Postponing the concert date appears the best solution to give ourselves and our strategic partners more time to reset and consolidate efforts in order to propel this concert to excellent fruition,' said founder and owner Datuk Eddie Abdullah. The company also expressed its deep appreciation to Hetty, affectionately known as 'Bunda', for her understanding and full agreement with the postponement. Widely respected across Indonesia and beyond, Hetty is expected to draw fans not only from Malaysia but also neighbouring countries like Brunei, Indonesia (Kalimantan), and Singapore, thanks to accessible regional travel routes such as Scoot flights. Meanwhile, all tickets purchased through Uber Tickets remain valid for the new date. According to Eddie, Uber Tickets has confirmed that while tickets are transferable, they remain non-refundable in accordance with the original terms and conditions. Ticket holders are encouraged to contact the Uber Tickets hotline for assistance. The concert will also feature local artistes including Bob Yusof, Rickie Andrewson, Rosiana Urai, and emerging talents Aleysha and Ryan Zachary. Significantly, the concert is charity-driven, with a portion of ticket proceeds going to the Persatuan Sokongan Kanser Payudara Miri (Persopam), a local breast cancer support group. 'This is a concert with charity in mind, as we believe that in business, there must also be a sense of caring and sharing towards the less fortunate in our community,' Eddie added. Borneo SuperAct Events is also appealing to corporate organisations to support the concert, either by sponsoring the event or purchasing bulk tickets as a goodwill gesture for employees and families. The concert marks the organiser's debut venture into the creative and performing arts industry in Sarawak and is expected to contribute to local tourism and cultural vibrancy. 'With more time for planning and promotion, we are optimistic that the concert will exceed expectations when it finally takes place in September,' said Eddie. For updates and further information, fans can follow Borneo SuperAct Events and Uber Tickets on their official platforms. concert Hetty Koes Endang indonesia lead miri postponed

Ghosts Powers, Ranked: Whose Special Ability Is Best? And Which One Stinks?
Now that Hetty's power has been revealed on Ghosts, every major spirit on the show has a special gift — but not all gifts are created equal. More from TVLine Elsbeth Season 2 Finale to Feature Nine (!) Returning Guest Stars NCIS' Returning Character Revealed! LL COOL J to Guest-Star in Season 22 FBI: CIA No Longer Getting a Backdoor Pilot, Eyes Straight-to-Series Order Below, TVLine has assessed the powers of all eight ghostly series regulars for usefulness, creativity and entertainment value, and ranked them from worst to best. We've also included a couple of recurring characters with memorable abilities in our tabulations. How does Hetty's newfound power to be seen compare to Pete's traveling adventures beyond the gates of Woodstone? Is Alberta's humming really worthy of her friend's jabs? And how far ahead in our rankings did Trevor's increasingly quick typing get him? The ghosts, themselves, have plenty of feelings about their own unique gifts — we get it, Pete, you can leave the property! — as well as their friends' impressive (or impressively lacking) talents. But are their opinions in alignment with TVLine? Scroll down to review our ranking of ghosts powers, complete with video of the special abilities in action, then hit the comments with your No. 1 pick! After dying of dysentery during the Revolutionary War, the soldier developed the unfortunate ability to emit an awful, fart-like order when passing through livings. Neither all that useful or amusing, this power is a (literal) stinker, and Isaac knows it. The basement ghosts finally revealed their power in Season 4, and it was disgustingly fitting: Mirroring the way they died, the spirits gave cholera to Jay's restaurant staff for a brief period of time. Gross but hilarious, just like the basement crew. While the 1920s singer gets a lot of flack from the other ghosts for her lackluster power, Alberta's ability to have her humming heard by livings has actually come in handy on the rare occasion. When she used it to communicate with her great niece to guide her during an important life decision, Alberta's power went from ho-hum spooky to incredibly touching. Death by lightning means the Viking can make lights flicker and, sometimes, explode with only the power of his brain. Nifty? Yes. Spooky? Maybe. More often, Thor's ability is a better expression of his emotions than it is in its intended execution. And manipulating electrical currents can leave the giant feeling, well, zapped of energy. Hetty's cheating scoundrel of a husband can get livings horny when walking through them, which made for a hilarious moment when Jay and Sam fell prey to Elias' power and tried to seduce their friends. We don't want Elias coming back from Hell and wreaking havoc on Woodstone B&B, but if it means we get more randy action, then we'd kind of be for it. Like with Elias, Flower's ability to make people high when passing through them isn't exactly practical, but it sure is amusing to watch the trippy effects. So we have to give the hippie points for entertainment value over usefulness. Honestly, we're kind of too scared of Patience to rank her lower. After dying by bloodletting, the Puritan ghost is able to make walls weep with blood. Oh, and she can write out threatening messages with that blood, too. It's all very terrifying and sort of gorily amazing in a 'gruesome horror movie we never want to find ourselves in' kind of way. No doubt many of Hetty's ghostly pals would love to be visible to livings, like the robber baroness recently discovered she was on St. Patrick's Day, allowing her to briefly date Jay's cousin. But the limited time frame on Hetty's power — it seems to manifest only during that specific holiday — is a major damper on what would otherwise be a god-tier ability. In the meantime, Hetty's left to just wait around until the following St. Patty's Day. Let's be honest: Trevor has the most useful power on a day-to-day basis. Using his index finger to touch objects, he is able to type out messages and surf the Internet, which comes in handy quite often. Sure, his skills aren't up to Mavis Beacon's level (although he is getting improbably quicker), but they're good enough to set up a dating app profile and land a remote finance job from the afterlife. Bro, that's seriously impressive! Being a traveling ghost is a perfect fit for former travel agent Pete, who is able to leave the Woodstone property. Since discovering his power, Pete has found brief romance with ghost Donna in Saint Lucia, met new ghost friends at a big box store and opened up a whole new world of storytelling opportunities for the series. But there's one not-so-little problem: Pete can't be away from Woodstone for too long or 'little Pete' and other body parts start to, literally, disappear. Eep! With his ability to enter people's dreams, Sas has the coolest and most influential power on the show. Not only does he get to hang out with livings and have fun in another realm (Trekkie time with Jay!), but he can also sway their decisions and behavior when they're awake by planting seeds in their dreams. And unlike with Pete and Hetty, there doesn't appear to be a major constriction on the extent of his special skill. No wonder Sas kept the details of his power to himself for so long!

FBI: CIA No Longer Getting a Backdoor Pilot, Eyes Straight-to-Series Order
We're no longer getting a sneak peek at the new FBI spinoff. FBI: CIA, which was first announced in January, will not air a backdoor pilot this spring on the original FBI, as was originally planned, according to our sister site Deadline. Instead, the spinoff is now nearing a straight-to-series order for the 2025-26 TV season.

Ghosts' Rebecca Wisocky Talks Hetty's 'Resonant' Power and Why She Loved Not Having a Special Ability Casting seems to be the primary hold-up, as casting negotiations for the male lead are still underway. FBI: CIA centers on a dedicated, strait-laced FBI agent and a street-smart CIA agent who join forces as part of a new, clandestine task force charged with solving and preventing domestic terrorism in and around New York City. The original plan was to introduce three series regulars in the backdoor pilot, but actors in the running for the third role have since been released. (The title FBI: CIA is also likely to change after being 'met with mixed reaction,' per Deadline.) Zeeko Zaki, who plays Special Agent 'OA' Zidan on the original FBI, indicated a change in plan when TVLine spoke with him earlier this month, saying, 'I'm not sure if that [backdoor pilot] is going to happen in our season now… I'm not exactly sure the status of the pilot anymore.' Zaki, however, had good things to say about the pilot script, having seen some sides from an actor pal. 'It's really, really strongly written,' he shared, 'and with the banter between the [lead FBI and CIA] agents, it's going to be a different dynamic. It's going to be really cool.' If it does earn a series order, FBI: CIA would join the original FBI on the CBS lineup, with FBI earning a three-season renewal last year. But CBS already dropped the axe on the franchise's other two current spinoffs, FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International, earlier this month, with both set to wrap up at the end of their current seasons.
