Sarawak and Sabah gears up for its annual festivals with mega parties and the grand success of 'Kosert Meletop TVS'
KUCHING: With the theme ' Nang Champiyen, Nang Legend ', the city of Miri lit up in a night of glitz and glamour as the Konsert MeleTOP TVS rocked the Miri Indoor Stadium with thousands of fans and top Malaysian stars including Dayang Nurfaizah, Stacy, Mimifly, Dolla, and many more. Making it even more special, this marked the first time the MeleTOP mega concert ventured beyond the Klang Valley, with Miri being the debut location in Borneo. Brought to you by two of the nation's entertainment giants, Astro and TVS, the two-hour concert was a lively celebration broadcast live on TVS (Channel 122 on Astro, MYTV, Unifi TV), Astro Ria, Astro GO and Sooka. The event was also graced by the presence of the Mayor of Miri, Adam Yii Siew Sang. The evening kicked off with a beautiful cultural and musical fusion performance by Sada Borneo and Dion Das, followed by an electrifying set from powerhouses Mimifly and Stacy, who lit up the stage with tracks like 'Abracadabra', 'Menyala' and 'Angkat.' Rising young star Wani Kayrie captivated the crowd alongside Noki, setting the stage ablaze with 'Original Sabahan' and 'Not Like Us', igniting Borneo pride on home soil. A major highlight of the night was the presentation of the 'Anugerah Khas Borneo MeleTOP' to Sarawak's beloved songstress Dayang Nurfaizah, awarded by TVS Chairperson, Dato' Norhyati Ismail and Acting CEO of TVS, En. Mohamad Sardon Zainal. The award stands as TVS' highest recognition of a Sarawak-born talent who has proudly carried the name of the state and Borneo into the national music spotlight. Dayang continued her special night with a heartfelt solo performance of 'Seandainya Masih Ada Cinta', and brought the house down with a soul-stirring duet of 'Haram' with Hael Husaini — it was a truly unforgettable collaboration. Also making special appearances were Hairee Francis, Marsha Milan and Nadeera Zaini — the golden-voiced singer currently making waves after her stellar success at AJL39. The evening reached one of its musical highlights with a high-energy finale from Dolla, who had the audience on their feet with a glamorous and dynamic performance. Keeping the crowd engaged from start to finish were popular MeleTOP hosts Nabil Ahmad, Hawa Rizwana and Sherry Alhadad, joined by TVS hosts Cheryl Toh, Fattah Bolh and Ghaz Zawawi, ensuring every moment was filled with excitement and joy.
