    I saw it but, that worth a million USD? Really burning the money, expending for barely anything.

    Yeah, I doubt if it really costs 1 million dollars. Maybe someone can explain better

    It's not the first time in 48g. The first time was AKB48 that created a Twitter campaign emoji for Miichan's grad concert last year

    Actually 48g can just create a campaign emoji for any of their major event such as when they can have sousenkyo again since 2018

    Governor of Central Java province, Ganjar Pranowo congratulating JKT48 for 10th anniversary

    if the video does not show watch the video here

    Initially I thought it was a joke but it's real

    But be careful guys, we know he wants to become the president of Indonesia so I think this video has many subliminal messages

    This weekend we're gonna celebrate 10 years of JKT48

    Maybe when JKT48 was created, AKB48 was questioned why creating their first overseas sister group in Indonesia where AKB48 was unknown back then, even among Japanese music fans who probably preferred anime songs especially from mainstream animes like Naruto

    But JKT48 had good impact for boosting AKB48 popularity in Indonesia. As of 1 August 2022, Indonesia is the country with 2nd most people that looped AKB48 MVs on Youtube last 30 days, just below Japan

    Also, Jakarta is the city with 2nd most people that looped AKB48 MVs on Youtube last 30 days, just below Osaka & the most among cities outside Japan. 2 other Indonesian cities, Surabaya & Bandung are also in the top 10 of this chart
    IMG_20220801_215251.jpg

    A bit out of context but Sapporo ranks 4th, highest among cities outside Kanto region that don't have 48 groups, even above Nagoya & Fukuoka that have 48 groups, also Niigata & Hiroshima that have 48 groups but aren't in the top 10 of this chart. I think Sapporo is where AKB48 should create a new sister group when AKB48 can create a new sister group someday in the future

    Letter from Aki-P to JKT48: https://twitter.com/officialJKT48/status/1556989514840932353?t=iRKdIoc6mOt-fvn8v4IN9g&s=19

    Translation by me:


    Happy 10th anniversary JKT48.

    I have always followed your activities from Japan. I actually would like to come and greet directly directly but because the conditions did not support,ould not come.

    Because of the spirit and the tirelessness in pursuing dreams, you have been always shining to be the idols who represent Indonesia. Thank you very much.

    I hope your smile will spread from Indonesia to all of the world.

    I will always support you.

    Yasushi Akimoto

    Seems like this one hasn't been posted here.
    Anyway, still not sure what position Dentsu currently is because I heard that Dentsu is just investing in IDN and letting it manage the group and the other said that Dentsu is also co-managing JKT48.

    IDN makes JKT48 related to 88Rising

    So I hope when Sisca graduates, she'll join 88Rising if she wants but before that, I hope she'll stay in JKT48 for at least one more year and becomes a senbatsu of one or two single(s)

    Or maybe, JKT48 collaboration with Niki or Rich Brian or Warren Hue perhaps?

    Is that limited for Jakarta residents only?

    BTW JKT48 has been in same events with Maliq & D'essentials last few months. Seems LaleIlmanNino will be regular songwriter/composer/producer of most of next JKT48's original songs/singles.

    The ticket is free, the only requirement to get the ticket is just by creating a Jaklingko card. Everyone can apply to it not limited to Jakartans only.

    37 no Suteki na Machi e will be real. A collaboration of JKT48 & Ministry of Tourism & Creative Economy

    But there're still proposals of new provinces of Indonesia. So, when some of new provinces come true, this song will be renamed?

    It seems that JKT48's recent collab with Iwan Fals got viral. This is actually the first time (?) JKT48 got viral because of collaboration. This thing is prolly also because of him, being a musician legend in Indonesia, showing on his own soc media that he really enjoyed the collaboration.

    Need to subscribe to read this article ._.

    Actually Japan just need to relax their copyright law. No need to going KPop

    Earlier, a Japanese senior music critic going viral because she blamed AKB48 why Jpop isn't as popular as Kpop.

    In my mind, rather than blaming an idol group which the last time has an actual hit was 9 years ago, she better appreciate artists who have done better at carrying Jpop to international audiences. They're mostly anime & Vocaloid musicians

    Just look at this, most popular Japanese music artists & songs on Spotify among international audiences are mostly related to anime
