JKT48 mega concert would be special for me if they promote and perform new song like beginner river or uza rather than political commercial and perform old songs. Sekian....

that breaking news was something unnecessary except if it was a news about a huge cataclysm somewhere. What a shame Really annoying for JKT48 fans who were watching from TV

Do they?
If you're only assuming, because you saw that the country address lists many options when you're checking out, I still do think they don't actually do it. I don't know why they do that tho, but yeah
I sent them an email asking about it too, btw.. still got no reply until now however

maybe the staff and securities were hungry -_-" or the members didn't want it? (sounds weird)
but as far as I know..any gifts that I entrusted to the security staffs always received by the members

make a concert without a surprise it's not reflect 48 style!

I thought an asteroid hit the Earth when the breaking news began. But... it is nothing more than a political campaign [boom]

My own dream stage for JKT, BTW:

JKT48's Dream Stage: For long, AKB48 had performed in various venues in Japan, with the most recent one is at Tokyo Dome, and soon at Nissan Stadium. While JKT48 had only performed in smaller stages along with other musicians, and only had their big performance during last year's Mega Konser. However, even the latter lacks a vibe for it's only held in a TV studio (which I thought not that grand of a stage). Today's concert doesn't count as a big performance, too, since too many ads for a small-duration concert.

So, I've been doing some "realistic daydreaming" about where they should perform in the years to come in Indonesia. I've listed several concert venues around Jakarta (for now) which frequently used as a stage by many international stars during their performance. I really, really, really hope that this will come true (albeit not definitely sooner). Hell, even AKB takes more than 6 years to perform in Tokyo Dome so I guess even though waiting for a long time 'till JKT perform in these venues, it's worth the wait.
Here's my own dream stage for JKT:

1. Istora Gelora Bung Karno

Capacity: Around 15,000 or more

While not the largest in Jakarta, Istora Senayan had hosted many important events for years. The most notable ones is badminton matches and boxing matches. Served primarily as a badminton court, Istora also have multifunctional capabilities, as it was also a place for gatherings, exhibitions, and also concerts.

There are various international singers and bands who had had performed here, such as Maroon 5, Bruno Mars, N.E.R.D., and Maher Zain. If there's any possibilities for JKT48 to make their leap in greater scale concerts, then this is certainly the first step.

2. Tennis Indoor Senayan

Capacity: More than 8,000

Still from inside the Gelora Bung Karno sports complex, the other prominent venue is of course Tennis Indoor Senayan. As the name suggests, it is mainly a tennis court with other functions for various occasions. One of these occasions are concerts.

Again, while not the biggest one in Jakarta, Tennis Indoor Senayan is definitely a reputable concert venue. Names such as Owl City and Westlife are the ones who've performed at Tennis Indoor, while SCANDAL and Carly Rae Jepsen are scheduled to perform in March and May respectively.

I really hope JKT48 will perform here one day [clap]

3. Mata Elang International Stadium (MEIS)

Capacity: 20,000

Jumping from the smaller stages, we're now on to MEIS, one of the largest concert venues in Southeast Asia. It is located at the Ancol Dreamland, and is easily recognized with its seaside characteristics, which make it somehow unique comparing to the other venues in Jakarta.

MEIS had already used by prominent K-Pop star Big Bang during their Alive Galaxy Tour 2012, Super Junior's Super Show 4 Tour, and western stars such as David Foster, Jennifer Lopez, and Guns N' Roses. Indonesia's superband NOAH also made their gig here, with the concert "Born to Make History". With so many stars of those caliber already performed here, MEIS are one of Jakarta's greatest venues.

JKT48 should aim to this place as their concert venue in the future, as it is one of the prestigious (if not spacious) stage in Indonesia. I was imagining: IF 20,000 fans from around the world came here to watch JKT's performance, then it's going to be really awesome. I will look forward to that time

4. Sentul International Convention Center (SICC)

Capacity: 11,000

SICC is a large meeting place located at Sentul, Bogor, West Java. It's size and close proximity from the Jagorawi Highway make it easy to spot when you're doing a trip from Jakarta to Bogor.

One of the most remembered concert ever held here is Justin Bieber's concert. I forgot the year though, and I don't attend it. But from what I heard, it is said to be one-hell-of-a-concert. The recent performance here is done by Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan if I'm not mistaken.

For some reason, I picked this place for my imaginary JKT48 performance. To me, it somehow resembles Tokyo Dome from the outside, and I just think it is great for JKT to perform in a Tokyo Dome replica. I also delusioned that when JKT48 held the concert here, Melody announced her graduation from the group after X years with JKT (much like Acchan during SSA). It will be a memorable (and tear-dropping) concert for them.

IDK if it will really happen, though. I'm just sharing my delusion here

5. Gelora Bung Karno Stadium

Capacity: 80,000-110,000 for football matches, 100,000++ for concerts.

Now for the last, but definitely not the least: Gelora Bung Karno. It is the largest concert venue you can find in Indonesia, since GBK is considered as one of the world's largest stadiums. It already housed so many competitions and events from the day of its completion to this day, including football games, national festivals, and of course concerts. Being able to perform in this sizable venue is definitely an unforgettable experience.

The most recent concert held here was SMTown's concert (as shown in the pictures above). The vibe and excitement from it shouldn't anymore be debated. It is one of the greatest shows in Indonesia.

This venue should be the dream stage for JKT48 members, officials, and fans. Being able to bring JKT48 in a performance here means that JKT are ready to step outwards to another country, or simply put, qualified to go International. And like AKB, if JKT managed to reach GBK in later years, it shouldn't be a finish line for them, but another starting point to achieve a greater goal in the future.

How far FX from the stadium anyway?
