How do you feel when announced as winner?
I really felt very thankful and blessed to have so many people supporting me because without them, I will not be where I am right now. And I am really happy that I’ve played my part for the country and making Singapore proud.
What are your future plan after Asian Idol?
I am still in the midst of discussing with my manager, but a new album is definitely on the list and I hope to be able to release the new album not only in Singapore but in other parts of the region as well.
How do you feel to be back home?
Both happy and sad at the same time. Happy because there’s no place like home! Now I am back with my beloved family, friends and fans who have supported me all these while. Sad because I had such a great time at Jakarta and I didn’t want to leave! Haha..Really hope to see you guys soon!!
How are the fans welcoming you back to Singapore? Is it true what we heard, that fans are waiting for you at Changi?
It was really an overwhelming reception – there were just so many people out there waiting for me at the airport! I just didn’t know how to react but one thing for sure? They moved me to tears! I really thanked them for their love and faith in me and I will promise to do my best for them.
