Let your voice shine at Carlsberg Diamond Idol 2014 Carlsberg Diamond Idol (CDI) is more than a singing competition. Dubbed as the most popular singing competition in East Malaysia, CDI is also an avenue for individuals to enhance their self-confidence and propel them to pursue their dreams of a singing career.
Meanwhile, Jacqueline Lau’s persistency to succeed led her to take third place in CDI 2013 after competing for the second time in the competition.
One of the competition’s uniqueness is the three-day Carlsberg Diamond Idol Camp, where participants of the Grand Finale would be given vocal training, dance lessons, group performance practices as well as be involved in teambuilding activities. The aim of the camp is to equip the participants with the necessary skills for them to perform their best in the Grand Finale. “I learned different styles of singing while preparing for the group performance. I also improved my dancing skills and techniques thanks to the training camp,” said Sylvester Lee, the champion of last year’s CDI. He added that he would encourage people to participate in the competition to gain the exposure of performing on stage. Following his win in the competition, he embarked on a full-time singing career by forming a band called Hikaru, which means ‘shine’ in Japanese. The 5-person band currently performs in weddings in Kota Kinabalu. Sylvester also took part in Carlsberg’s East Malaysia Charity Concert 2014, which went on a tour to Tawau, Lahad Datu and Sandakan to raise funds for schools in Sabah.
