Talpa’s “The Voice” sent to Singapore and Malaysia

Talpa Media has secured a deal to send its flagship talent format The Voice to Singapore and Malaysia.

The adapted version of the format will be produced by mm2 Entertainment, a wholly owned subsidiary of mm2 Asia. It is slated to air in Mandarin in 2017.

The deal marks the first time that a single version of the format will be produced for two territories.

Mm2 Entertainment, producer of hit movies such as the highly successful Ah Boys To Men franchise and online singing competition Hear Me Sing, will produce the Singapore/Malaysia version.

The Voice first aired in the Netherlands in 2010. The long-running format has since been developed into nearly 70 local productions and airs in more than 180 territories worldwide.

UK broadcaster ITV last year outbid the BBC to acquire the British format on a three-year term beginning in 2017. ITV also signed a three-season commitment for an ITV2 spin-off show, and a two-series contract for The Voice Kids.

Last May, ITV completed its ￡355 million (US$531.7 million) acquisition of Talpa Media.

“The Voice continues to prove its universal appeal, with the focus on positivity being the differentiating factor that speaks to audiences around the globe,” said Maarten Meijs, MD of Talpa Global, in a statement. “We’re incredibly proud that The Voice has reached yet another new territory and believe the format will be a fantastic hit in Singapore and Malaysia.”

“Given the strong historical and cultural bond between the two countries, the Singapore and Malaysia version is a great way to extend this iconic format to this part of the world,” added mm2 Asia CEO Melvin Ang. “Through the show, we’re also looking to unearth fresh acting and singing talents for our diverse range of movies and entertainment platforms.”

Since this show gonna be in Mandarin, the coaches sgt la who are youss . Gary tu ajelah yg aku macam familiar.

Anyway, patut buat in English format la at least. Mesti akan attract lagi ramai viewers.

Since ...

please do not do the English-speaking... just do the unifying Malay-speaking version because it's Malaysia, and the only "official" language is Malay...

according to me, here are the better ideas:

-the title is "The Voice of Malaysia"
-the main language (spoken by the host(s) and the coaches) should be Malay, although they can also do code-switching with English (just like The Voice of the Philippines)
-the contestants should be able to speak Malay fluently (either as first or second speaking language)
-the coaches and host(s) should be Malay-speaking, although they are also able to speak other languages, such as Chinese or English
-any songs from any languages are allowed
-the coaches should have much experience in performing, songwriting, and/or producing artists or songs (proven by some #1 hit songs or accolades). So far, my idea that comes to my mind is Faizal Tahir only. I don't know yet for the other well-known Malaysian singers because I'm Indonesian...
-contestants are solos, duos, and groups (not more than five members, and all of them should sing together at least in a song's chorus)
-lower age limit is 15 y.o. (no upper age limit)

so far, here's the infobox summary of the show:

I'm glad you think so. This has been in use for a while and seems to be working out well.

Your writings stick out to me since the content is interesting and simple to understand driving directions. Even though I've read a lot of websites, I still like yours more. Your essay was interesting to read. I can understand the essay better now that I've read it carefully. In the future, I'd like to read more of your writing.
