三面玲农・马上好运 - FAMA and Mak Ling Ling in Genting (Arena Of Stars) - 8 March 2026
























This show, which is a cross-over between Feng Shui master, Mak Ling Ling and rappers FAMA, was originally slated to be held at Genting prior to the Lunar New Year.  I suspect due to sluggish ticket sales, it was later shelved to 8th of March.  Unfortunately, the postponement did little improvement as the organiser were offering free tickets prior to the concert.  To rub salt to the wound, those holding the cheapest tickets were later upgraded to VIP seats to fill-up the empty seats.  Such poor management and unjust move.  To be fair , those who have bought PS1 tickets should be given priority to have their seats elevated to VIP tier.  If I had known, I would not have wasted my money buying PS1 seats.

FAMA has ventured out on their own and started a new company called "So Fa So Good".  Hate to say this but their performance leaves much to be desired. Seems to have lost their mojo as their newer compositions lacked soul and felt detached, compared to their older hits.  The hip hop melody loops are not catchy either.  Fortunately, they have Mak Ling Ling around to add some sparks to the show and made it less boring with non-stop audience interactions.  Clearly, most of the spectators were more captivated by Mak's metaphysics sharings than listening to FAMA.  The only highlight is probably having Mak Ling Ling sang 風生水起  live during encore. I am disappointed that 居高只手 is glaringly missing from their set list. They also took the chance to promote their upcoming concert May concert in Hong Kong.  Judging from the less than lukewarm response, I doubt any Malaysians would go to HK for the show (although I did that before for FAMA 16 years ago).

"Night King" 《夜王》一 Meet and Greet with Sammi Cheng 郑秀文、Fish Liew 廖子妤、Miko黄洁琪 & Jack Ng at Pavilion KL- 11 Feb 2026

















































2026 pre CNY period is definitely a windfall period for HK entertainment stalkers.  Almost every single week, we have activities lined up.  From movie promotions to CNY events.  The latest to grace our shores before CNY next week is none other than legendary Cantopop diva, Sammi Cheng.  Just a few weeks ago, many fans were fighting tooth and nail to secure her 2-show concert tickets in Malaysia (this coming April).  As expected, many were left disappointed.  The last concert I had attended was a decade ago – “TouchMi”.  This was succeeded by “FollowMi” in 2019 but if I recalled correctly, it never got a chance to go for world tour due to the pandemic. 

This is indeed a lucky year for Sammi’s fans ! Unexpectedly, Sammi has included Malaysia as part of promotional itinerary for their festive flick, “Night King”.  Although the event is on a weekday (Wednesday), it didn’t deter ardent fans from turning up in droves…talk about Sammi’s star power !  Sammi has already proven to be a force to be reckoned with in the acting industry, having clinched the Best Actress accolade in the 41st (2023) Hong Kong Film Awards for her demanding role in “Lost Love”.  This victory came after 20 years of dabbling in acting and being nominated on multiple occasions. This time around, Sammi teamed up with reigning box office king, “Chiwah San” aka Dayo Wong. They portrayed a pair of bickering exes caught in a turbulent love/hate relationship.  The story also revolves around the sunset industry of Hong Kong night clubs and the lives of the hostesses and mamasan. Sammi takes on the role of the night club’s CEO, who also happens to be an ex-mamasan.   The man behind this feature film is acclaimed director, Jack Ng, who had a HKD100 million box-office hit, “A Guilty Conscience”, under this belt.  Joining Jack and Sammi for the exclusive fans meeting is local talent, Fish Liew and Miko Wong.  Fish (who hails from Muar Johor) has already established herself in HK, having joined the HK industry 2012.  Having starred in two controversial/daring roles during her initial foray into this field, Fish is reaping the rewards of her hard work.  This is the first time I saw Fish in-person.  Director Jack also took the chance to congratulate and announced the good news that Fish had just been nominated for the Best Actress category for the upcoming Hong Kong Film Awards. This is followed by a hug from Sammi. Miko Wong is also trying to penetrate the HK movie circle and flew to Hong Kong to audition for the part.  Sammi urged everyone to watch the cinemas and if that’s ain’t enough, then go support her concerts….which she sheepishly has added already sold out.  To those hopping that Sammi will add another show, sorry ! no such luck.   Sammi and cast also distributed goodies to the fans.  Other cast lineup includes Tse Kwan Ho, Alan Yeung and Error’s Ah Dee. The theme song is a remake version of Sammi’s old hit “星秀傳 (Shine一次ver.) , with Ah Dee and Alan behind the rapping portion.
