    All VIP Fanclub members so, if you aren't already a VIP fanclub member, you still have a chance to win as long as you sign up before the raffle is drawn.

    I don't think they announced the date of the draw, but unfortunately it was difficult to hear much of the MCs at all as several of the microphones didn't work and the audio levels were very quiet on most of the ones that were working. They didn't get round to working out which microphones were functioning correctly until towards the end of the event. According to the guy I was sat next to, this is a common problem at this venue, so hopefully they will make improvements in this area sooner rather than later.

    I'm a little confused with that certification. They say AGM sold 30k but only PFC has the certification.

    I am seeing my twitter name in that screenshot. Hihi. We probably follow each other?

    I don't have Twitter. I was just scrolling through the hashtag hoping to see Team NIV's new costumes, and saw your tweet
    Sela is the one that said it sold 30k, but she never specified whether that was physical, or digital sales, or both. I'm going to assume she meant both because I remember hearing that AGM sold 10k physical.

    10k physical? That's the first time I heard this. If it's true, selling physical CDs in lawson stores is really a huge help. Maybe they should consider selling in SM or Ayala stores next.

    I love how she struggled there lol I think generally she has better pronunciation than Sheki and Abby in terms of interviews especially in English.

    Yup, it sucks that the record stores like Astrovision died cause it would definitely be more convenient to buy from those. I don't think there's even a Lawson store near my area, the nearest is probably an hour away. I would love to see the CDs in the store.

    And despite the struggle, I actually think she pulled it off very well. Definitely a natural talk show host, if not an outright natural entertainer lol

    I know this is an English language site, but I don't think it would break the rules to say Maligayang Pasko!

    P.S. I assume you have had your parols up for months. I have a fako electric one given to me by my son that I plug in after Thanksgiving (how's that for mixing cultures?).

    Wow, thanks for posting here! International fans now know a venue for subbed mnl videos. Not really a subber and I probably have no time for it at the moment, but I hope you get more translators for your team. You guys should aim to be the de-facto MNL48 subbers. lol

    The ones in my area are all gone. We used to have 3 plus a small space in the SM Department store but those all closed down and the one in the department store is now just for electronics.

    We all wished for a well-made MV for 2019- i heard they recently have new art director and artists.Hopefully they do not neglect most of the fans concerns.

    I feel like if JPOP has a market as big as KPOP here, they can consign CDs in specialty stores like KPOP CDs has CNA, which has multiple locations in Metro Manila. The CDs are cheap so I think they can sell more if people can see the CDs more often. Lawson isn't really that widespread compared to 7-11 and Ministop so I think that's another improvement point on them as well.
