Bandar
Seri Begawan -The Agnes Monica Live in Brunei concert
scheduled to take place on March 10, 2007 at the Indoor Stadium of
the Hassanal Bolkiah Sports Complex in Berakas, has been put on
hold.
For the past two weeks escalating
rumours regarding the cancellation of the much anticipated concert
and purchasers of the tickets priced at $30, 40, $60, $100 and $150
are becoming restless. Eighty per cent out of 7,000 tickets have '
already been sold.
"Due to some urgent matters we are
putting everything on hold. I cannot say anything much about it now,
but I'm not going to say it's cancelled," said Dk Sid Amal Zuria Pg
Jaidi, a spokesperson from Aman Abadi Entertainment, the management
responsible for organising the concert.
"Agnes is really hoping to perform
in Brunei. Previously she has performed in only two other Asian
countries - Singapore and Taiwan."
Agnes Monica has been in the
entertainment industry since she was three years old and her acting
and singing has earned her numerous national and also international
awards.
The recent accomplishments of the
21-year-old include the MTV Indonesia Music Award for Most Favourite
Female and Anugerah Music Indonesia for Best Pop Female Artiste as
well as Panasonic Award for Best Actress in 2006 for her acting.
"Recently the Konsert Dangdut
Indonesia 2007(KDI) was also cancelled giving a bad image on Brunei
Darussalam. We have followed the procedure and are trying to settle
everything by the end of the month," said Dk Sid Amal who declined
to give further details.
However, "If there is any
confirmation, we will update the public immediately and if it is
negative, refunds will be made," she added. -- Courtesy of
