"There were t-shirts together, like that, we always support each other and he also has, what is it? A good energy when we meet," said Raisa.

The news of Ricky Siahaan's passing was very shocking for Raisa. Moreover, just recently they were both in Tokyo at almost the same time. "I was very shocked to hear the news, so we were both in Tokyo yesterday, it felt like, wow, we were close," said Raisa.

Ricky Siahaan passed away suddenly after performing at Gekiko Fest 2025 in Tokyo, Japan. Raisa reminisced about her friend's departure as a moment that left a deep impression because it happened while Ricky was doing something he loved.
