Jakarta, June 26 (CNA) Siti Badriah, a hugely popular songstress in Indonesia who has performed in Taiwan, has thanked Taiwan for taking good care of Southeast Asian migrant workers, including those from her country.
The 26-year-old Siti, who has become wildly popular after her performance of Lagi Syantik (Pretty Full), has had close ties with Taiwan since performing a concert at the Flora Expo site in Taipei in 2016 to celebrate Eid al-Fitr or the End of Ramadan.
That performance bonded the singer and her fans — both Indonesian migrant workers and Taiwanese — who have been in contact online ever since.
Her rendition of Lagi Syantik has now earned her the title of “Queen of YouTube” after the Dangdut music got more than 167 million hits on TouTube. [FULL STORY]
