JKT48 going to Malaysia again Please come to learn what to do in a 48g event, before KLP48 debuts next summer
Would they announce the debut track or audition date that day? Overseas sister group debut song JKT48 Heavy rotation MNL48 Aitakatta BNK48 Aitakatta AKB48 Team SH LOVE TRIP AKB48 Team TP Mae Shika Mukanee CGM48 Yume wa Nigenai KLP48 Green Flash????
CGM48's Debut Song is Chiang Mai 106, which is based on NGT48's Max Toki 315go. Yume wa Nigenai is for CGM48's 2nd Generation debut.
Celine's dream came true though she had graduated from JKT48 in 2022 to came home to Malaysia, I believe she currently studies tourism in Limkokwing. KLP48 should hire her as a staff
I wonder when will they announce the 1st gen auditions also, do we not have a member from Malaysia here in S48?
Celine actually wants to join KLP48 as a member because she's still eligible. Should she? Maybe she can be a mentor to younger members Celine's biggest achievement when she was a member of JKT48 is when she reached senbatsu on 2019 sousenkyo, making her one of the members who sang Rapsodi, JKT48's first original song. As of February 2024, Rapsodi has been streamed over 80 million times on Spotify, it's the most popular song of ALL48 on the platform

Interesting. All three are girls who gave me a feeling of "You deserve so much more than what you get", so, while I reckon this will be a huge change for them and their fans, I am hopeful about this move. Definitely a good plus for KLP also.

Well, they said on a post that they will also get members from existing 48Groups I wonder if they'll also take some from the international ones
I wonder what the Japanese members motivations moving to KLP48 are? It's been a while since Japanese members have transferred to an oversea group.
Message video (with English and Malay hardsubs) from the three transferring AKB members: if the video does not show watch the video here EDIT: One from Kokoa (speaking in Malay!): if the video does not show watch the video here
Malaysia seems kinda more toned down than we give it credit for. JKT48 girlies were not wearing long skirt nor Hijab at the Malaysia concert. I wonder how will their dressing actually work TBH, I don't want KLP48 to get unnecessary hate.
Kokoa has been talking to Asahi Shimbun in an article published today: https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASS3Q5FCTS3QOXIE01H.html Unfortunately it's mostly behind a paywall but in the free part she says she volunteered to go to KLP48: [translated] "I learned the news of KLP48's formation just before this year's New Year's Day performance. I immediately sent a message to my manager on LINE saying I want to go.''
Gyoten uploaded this to her X, candidates to KLP48 https://twitter.com/tenten_yurina/status/1781122175094894607/
