Charity Concert Brings Hope to Needy Patients

In celebration of our Nation’s 50th Birthday, NKF collaborated with Budak Pantai, an a cappella group, to organise “Budak Pantai & Friends” at the Esplanade Concert Hall on 4 June 2015. The group – made up of Gordon, Mike, Joe, Kah Keh and Danny – still has a huge following today. Most of their fans enjoy the group’s quirky and laidback style, which comes with a heavy dose of humour. Formed in 1994 when they won TV’s Rollin’ Good Times’ Beach Boys contest (hence the name in Malay), the much loved “local heroes” came out of retirement for just one night to bring back their hit numbers such as “Ah Bu Den” & “Jiu Gang Tang Buay Bo”. To spice up the concert further, they even roped in their friends which included local groups such as The Main Wayang Singers, Dance Thrilogy and many other friends to commemorate SG50 and helped raise over $200,000 for needy kidney patients.
