[Press Conference Coverage] Premiere of Jacqueline Tiang 程玲First Trendy Dance Song “Look At Me Now”


Kuala Lumpur, December 2019 – Jacqueline Tiang 程玲who is debuted at the Miss Astro Chinese International (MACIP) 2016 has brought us her first dance song “Look At Me Now”. She’s the first MACIP contestant who is involved in composing music and producing a music video.

Back in 2018, Jacqueline’s has attempted to sing the cover for a popular Mandarin song “一场游戏一场梦” by Dave Wang as a web-series theme song. The song went viral and many were surprised to find out about Jacqueline’s great vocal. From there onwards, others have started to notice her singing talent.

“Look At Me Now” is a representation of Jacqueline’s growth!
Jacqueline has gone through a lot of hardship in her journey as an artiste. It begins since her participation in MACIP whereby she received a lot of critic from the netizens during the period of the competition. She was always upset at that time and she always hopes to please everyone.






But as she grows through her career, she learned that it is important to be her true self. Thus, she has gained the courage to overcome the negative remarks against her. This is as per what she has written in her new song, “I will show you who I am, look at me now” as she wanted the people who used to reject her, to see how much she has grown now.

Being involved in the song composing for the first time, Jacqueline has shared with the media members regarding the amazing experience she has had with her music team. The music team consists of members from different races including Malay, Indian and Chinese. It was a fun process in the song formation and audio mixing as the team members from different backgrounds shared their different perspectives in the production.





Jacqueline also shared her opinion on music video production. She felt that the most difficult part of the process was in the look for the venues for shooting. The venues include “Vogue Lounge” and “Wicked KL Club”. Both venues provide a spectacular background for the shooting.

Otherwise, she was also involved in finding the props, styling, as well as the designs for the music video. Her efforts were praised by Harison Kam, the director of the music video. The music video depicts the transformation of an elegant lady into her true self. It is a visual treat for the audiences as the fashion in the video is really trendy and stylish.







During the media press conference, the music video “Look At Me Now” was shown and we really liked the concept.

Jacqueline also mentioned that she will be performing LIVE for the first time during the upcoming MACIP finale. It is something meaningful for her as MACIP was the competition that she debuted from. It’s definitely something to look forward to!











Apart from that, currently she’s involved in the filming of a web-series and she was collaborating with artistes from Hong Kong and China.

Check out the music video “Look At Me Now”:

(Check out our previous article on the Meet and Greet with the casts of Madagascar The Musical: https://www.wljack.com/2019/12/press-conference-coverage-meet-and.html)

I Like To Move It, Move It!
Madagascar The Musical is a wonderful adaptation of the film into a stage performance. It’s a pleasant spectacle for the audiences as they get to watch their favourite characters such as Alex The Lion, Marty The Zebra, Gloria The Hippo, Melman The Giraffe, Skipper, Rico, Private and Kowalski The Penguins and etc come to LIVE.






The musical has featured a number of songs such as “King Of New York!”, “Relax, Be Cool, Chill Out”, “Best Friends” as well as the animation most popular OST, “I Like To Move It Move It”. All of these songs are catchy and the audiences love it!

Besides the singing and dancing, the show also featured amazing puppetry performance for some of the characters such as The Penguins, Melman, Maurice and etc. It’s amazing to see the puppeteers in action while voicing over the characters as well.






The scenery change and lighting in the movie are amazing as well. From New York Central Park Zoo until the scenery of the wild in Madagascar, every backdrops are just stunning and transition of scenes are seamless.



We really love the performance by the casts members such as Joseph Connor, Posi Morakinyo, Connor Dyer, Hannah Victoria and etc. We are also impressed by Kieran Mortell’s performance as King Julien. We believed Kieran is kneeling down throughout his part and it’s definitely challenging to sing and dance in that position. Otherwise, the whole crews have done a great job in putting up such a wonderful show!

The media members were also given a chance to take a tour to the backstage. We were amazed by the setting at the backstage. We also get to learn how the puppeteer works!






Overall, Madagascar The Musical is a fun and entertaining show for families with kids. Do check it out this weekend!

Kuala Lumpur, June 2020 -  Macpie Berhad, through its subsidiary Macpie Distribution Sdn Bhd, has announced its appointment as the new authorised distribution partner in Malaysia for HMD Global, the Home of Nokia phones.

 

Macpie Distribution Sdn Bhd will be distributing Nokia mobile branded smartphones & feature phones in Malaysia through its channel partners & corporate partners.

Macpie Distribution Sdn Bhd is led by its Executive Director, Mr. Sean Ng. With more than 18 years of experience in the mobile technology business industry, Mr. Ng has profound knowledge and keen insight into the industry with an extensive network of business partners and industry players.

 

Back in the year 2012, he developed a smart device renowned in Malaysia branded together with his other co-founders and it had quickly gained prominence, market share, and a firm footing in the ASEAN region. In just two years, the brand had expanded to Indonesia and is making headway into other ASEAN markets. Mr. Ng believes in taking a hands-on approach to leading business and marketing strategies, branding management, logistics & multi-national supply chain management, operation strategies, and big-data business analysis.

We are truly humbled with the opportunity given to us and we would like to thank the team at HMD Global who have helped us make this a reality. Given our strength in the mobile business and the capability of the team at Macpie Distribution, we believe we will be able to work hand-in-hand with HMD Global to continue the expansion of Nokia mobile phones in Malaysia.

 

“Given their unique proposition, “It just keeps getting better”, Nokia mobile phones, are known for giving users a sense of security and stability. Macpie Berhad commits to supporting the growth of this new chapter of Nokia mobile phones in the Malaysian market, and will strive to ensure the brand’s devices are accessible to benefit users from all walks of life.

 

As we move towards 5G technology, we are confident that HMD Global’s focus on innovation and quality, will result in more accessible 5G mobile phones from Nokia mobile in the future. With the majority of Nokia Smartphones certified as Android Enterprise recommended devices, they provide an excellent fit for large corporations and small to medium enterprises (SMEs) who are looking for pure, secure and always up-to-date devices for their employees,” said Mr. Sean Ng, Executive Director of Macpie Distribution Sdn Bhd.

 

Vijay Thangavelu, Country Manager (Malaysia and Myanmar), HMD Global, said : “At HMD Global Malaysia, we are proud to serve loyal Nokia mobile fans as well as new users who believe in our award-winning devices. This structural change is a part of our transformational agenda, to ensure we introduce new ways of working with our channel & corporate partners for our business to ‘just keep getting better’. We are excited to work with our newly appointed partner, Macpie Distribution Sdn Bhd, and hope together we will grow our smartphone share of business while continuing to support our feature phone demand”.

Vijay adds, “At HMD Global we have a simple idea at the core of our operations: that mobile technology should enhance the everyday lives of everyone around the world. Our wide selection of phones is a step towards realizing that vision, and we go even further by ensuring our devices improve with usage for years to come through timeless design and regular security and performance updates.”

These principles are integral to each and every one of the phones across our device portfolio, and that sets us apart in the mobile phone market – we engineer phones you can trust to be your everyday digital companions. As far as 5G is concerned, we view this as an exciting opportunity to make cutting-edge technology more accessible to the masses. We hope to contribute by bringing 5G technology to a more affordable segment as we enter the market,” he concluded.
