After previously hinting about holding another show with a traditional theme, Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza finally announced her upcoming concert, “Gema Bumantara”.

Sharing the good news on 23 June with a poster of the concert, the Malaysian national songstress stated, “The Gema Bumantara Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza Traditional Concert will be held at TM National Stadium Bukit Jalil on 17 October 2026, at 8.30 pm.” Tickets sales start on 29 June 2026.

“Don’t miss the chance for us to celebrate the rhythm of our heritage together. Standing the test of time, forever the pulse in the voice of tradition for ages to come,” she added.

She also shared several of her hit traditional song titles in the post, from “Cindai”, “Sahmura” to “Hati Yang Rindu”.

It was back in January that Siti held her 30th anniversary concert called “Legacy” at the National Stadium Bukit Jalil, which saw the gathering of around 65,000 fans.

Soon after, fans began to suggest that she holds a special concert that focuses on just her traditional songs, seeing that she has recorded numerous songs of the genre.

Coming back to Malaysia on the New Year, Fan Bingbing was finally united with her Golden Horse Best Actress accolade.

The actress, who was unable to attend the ceremony in Taipei back in November, had her accolade accepted on her behalf by “Mother Bhumi” director Chong Keat Aun, who had been keeping it for her ever since. The movie’s theatrical release dates for Malaysia and Singapore are not confirmed for the time being. It is noted that the movie is doing very well in Taiwan and has crossed the one million mark.

On 1 January, Fan shared several photos of her with the coveted Best Actress trophy, captioning it, “With passion, we can overcome anything. My dear friends, let’s keep going together!”

Chong also posted their meeting to hand over the trophy, writing, “Before the end of 2025, the final function of the year as director, finally handed the best actress” trophy into the hands of the rightful owner. Now watching Fan Bingbing cheerfully holding the Golden Horse, it reminded of when she followed us to the countryside to live in Kedah Village. Those pictures of going to the fields, planting rice, leading the water buffalos, picking vegetables, cooking, and performing ritual cleansing ceremonies.”

Following the meeting, Fan also attended the New Year event, where she received the Melaka International Cultural Diplomacy Icon Award.

Siti Nurhaliza and husband Datuk Seri Khalid Mohamad Jiwa have recently released a statement following the controversy surrounding a religious event for newborn son Muhammad Afwa.

In the press statement released on social media on 3 May, Siti stated that no cross-state activity had taken place, after one of the celebrity preachers that was seen at the event was accused of travelling from outside the state to make an appearance.

“The individual agreed to attend because he happened to be in Kuala Lumpur on the date of the ceremony,” it stated.

Siti also stressed that the tahnik ceremony was organised in accordance to the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) set by the government, and was divided into three sessions with a limited number of guests that include immediate family members.

“Regarding the afternoon tahnik event attended by the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs), Datuk Seri Dr Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri, it was not a special ceremony as alleged. Instead, he only stopped to complete the recitation of prayers and tahnik before having to rush home for other matters,” she added.

The singer stated that she and her family have never taken lightly the standards set by the government and that they have tried to comply with it as much as possible. She also hopes that the explanation would help clarify the situation and not cause more misunderstanding.

“We understand and are open-minded with every reprimand given. We are also ready to give full cooperation to the authorities if needed. This is the last statement from us on this issue. I would like to focus on my confinement after giving birth to Muhammad Afwa and hope that this matter can be resolved and understood well,” she added.

Siti previously sparked a backlash after sharing photos from the tahnik ceremony – a Prophetic tradition in which the newborn baby’s lips are touched with honey, sweet juice or pressed dates to help with the circulation of blood in the mouth – that was attended by several famous religious icons including Ustaz Don Daniyal and Ustaz Azhar Idrus.

Many questioned the singer for holding such an event during the pandemic and inviting one of the preachers who is known to be residing in Terengganu.

Seven days after giving birth to her second child and first son, Datuk Seri Siti Nurhaliza finally revealed her newborn’s face and name to the world.

On 26 April, the songstress shared several photos of her baby boy, and wrote, “[Praise be to God], today, my husband and I would like to share the face and name of our second child. We named our son Muhammad Afwa which means forgiveness or pardon.”

“Muhammad Afwa was born in the month of Ramadan, the month of forgiveness and the word afwa itself was mentioned in the night prayer of the Lailatul Qadar. Afwa completes afiyah and it is found in the prayer that my husband and I chose, which is the complete prayer of afiyah,” she added.

The singer announced the birth of her son on 19 April, nearly five months after revealing that she had successfully conceived another child.

Siti is already mother to three year-old Siti Aafiyah, her first born after 12 years of marriage with businessman Datuk Seri Khalid Mohamad Jiwa.

On the other hand, the singer also launched the music video of her new single, “Anakanda” on the same day.

When it comes to COVID-19 standard operating procedures (SOPs), even the most beloved singer like Siti Nurhaliza could raise netizens’ ire.

The singer, who recently gave birth to her second child, was recently criticised by some who cried double standards, after it was revealed that there were other individuals who were given the permission to visit Siti while she was in the hospital.

One netizen wrote, “When my wife gave birth, nobody could come in except for me. But when a celebrity does it, anybody can visit. I am tired of this double standards.”

It is noted that the COVID-19 hospital rules dictates that only the husband can enter the hospital ward when it comes to visiting a mother and baby. However, among those who were spotted visiting the singer recently include her stepchildren, an ustaz, and a photographer.

Netizens were unhappy to see others not related to the singer being given access to see her
