SIBU: The Stage programme is making its grand return with its fifth series, The Stage 5.0, set to take place over three days, from June 7th to June 9th, at Rejang Esplanade. This exciting event will showcase the talents of two renowned international artists.
Bukit Assek Assemblyman Joseph Chieng Jin Ek revealed that the program’s schedule would run daily from 5 pm to 11 pm. The lineup includes the world champion violinist, Imran Azim Iskandar, and the celebrated Malaysian YouTube singer, Dior Da Ying.
“Azim Azim emerged victorious in the 2023 World Championships of Performing Arts held in the United States, solidifying his position as a global virtuoso. On the other hand, Dior’s hit song ‘Happy Go Lucky,’ released last year, made its way to China’s Hunan TV’s ‘2024 Lantern Festival Gala.'”
“Dior’s sensational duet with Firdhaus, titled ‘Divorce in the Republic of Ghana,’ went viral on TikTok and caught the attention of renowned singers Yang Kun and Zhang Bichen, who performed a breathtaking cover on the Chinese show ‘The Voice of Heaven 5,'” he shared enthusiastically.
These announcements were made during a press conference held today, June 6th, at the Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP) Service Centre, in conjunction with the upcoming programme.
Chieng further revealed that the event organised by the SUPP Bukit Assek Service Centre in collaboration with Hyper Young and Junior Chamber International (JCI) Seduan will also feature talented performers from Sibu, Kuching, and Miri.
