Saturday, June 1, 2024, Melly Goeslaw held a concert in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. She created a special song for Palestine. This special song was spontaneously made by Melly Goeslaw together with two audience members who were present. According to Melly Goeslaw, the song will be officially released by collaborating with Indonesian and Malaysian singers. Until now, it is not yet determined who will perform the song, but Melly Goeslaw said that whoever the singer is, they are willing to sing without being paid.
This song was sung together for the first time accompanied by an orchestral music, with the Palestinian flag being waved by the audience filling the Axiata Arena Bukit Jalil Stadium.
"At the concert yesterday in KL, I spontaneously created a song with 2 Malaysian audience members, and the Palestinian flag was waving there. This song will soon be produced by me and @imantang75, and will be sung by Indonesian and Malaysian singers (who are willing without a fee and royalties) as a dedication from the two countries to beloved Palestine, bismillaah," wrote Melly Goeslaw through her personal Instagram account on Monday, June 3, 2024.

1. Melly Goeslaw's Efforts to Support Palestine through Art

On May 4, 2021, Melly Goeslaw released a song titled Jangan Menangis (Don't Cry) to support Palestine. The song involves many famous Indonesian singers such as Opick, Rossa, Raffi Ahmad, Zaskia Sungkar, Krisdayanti, Baim Wong, Irwansyah, Syahrini, Dude Herlino, Arie Untung, Cakra Khan, and many others.
Not only that, she has also donated to Palestine by selling her personal collection items. In October 2023, she invited her Instagram followers, totaling more than 16 million people, to donate 10,000 rupiah per person to help raise 1 billion rupiah in aid for Palestine.
Melly Goeslaw believes that there is always God's intervention, which allowed the creation of the song for Palestine in a relatively short time. Through this song, Melly Goeslaw will donate all her profits to help the people of Palestine.

2. The atmosphere of the concert turned emotional

Dewi Gita, a singer who watched Melly Goeslaw's concert in Malaysia, shared her experience with her husband, Armand Maulana. Dewi Gita admitted that she was deeply moved when she saw Melly Goeslaw and two audience members creating a song for Palestine.
"The words that made approximately 9000 people applaud loudly were when Melly Goeslaw said 'You don't have to be a Muslim for Palestine, you don't have to be a Christian for Palestine, you don't have to be a Buddhist for Palestine, you don't have to be a Hindu for Palestine, just be a human being for Palestine.' It hit me hard," Dewi Gita wrote on her personal Instagram account.
Not only that, Dewi Gita also voiced her support for Palestine. "Allah SWT created humans as perfect beings, so let's restore Palestine as perfectly as we want. Fair and civilized humanity," she continued.
