Girl with Taiwanese Heritage in JKT48
The AKB48 first overseas sister group JKT48 has captured many with their sweet appearance and smile. A member hopes JKT48 could have the opportunity to enter Taiwanese market in the future.
Under the supervision of JKT48 and AKB48 Total Producer Yasushi Akimoto, AKB48 first overseas sister group JKT48 members were selected from thousands of applicants and after intensive training got their exclusive permanent theater debut in Jakarta, September last year. JKT48 members are invariably sweet, cute girls which composed mainly from Indonesian local girl as well as a number of Japanese girls.
The 16 years old Sonya (Sonya Pandarmawan) told CNA that her father is a Taiwanese married to an Indonesian mother. After the marriage, her parents settled in Indonesia. Sonya is the only JKT48 member capable in speaking Chinese and she hopes that someday, JKT48 could have a performance in Taiwan as well as getting a lot of Taiwanese friends.
Oh, Pan Meijun … seems like Kung Fu master name. But I like if they can perform in Taiwan, Shanghai, Taipei, and around the world (delusion)
Btw Mr. Angga, would you mind to add source about this article?
I already put the source there as usual with any other articles
. Right below the article for you to click 
Wow..wow…….hold on, cowboy! It looks like your intel was off. There’s Cigul a.k.a Cindy Christina Gulla (The most lolly one, if you asked me), who also speaks Chinese fluently. So, Panda is not the only one. (http://refsky-fitriono.blogspot.com/2012/08/fakta-tentang-member-jkt-48.html)
JKT48Stuff “Intel” mainly goes from Google Translate and various dictionaries available in your nearest bookstore
Anyway, does Cindy ever spoken in Mandarin publicly before as a citation ? We all know Sonya’s speaking Chinese perfectly from various YouTube videos.
Hmmm… may be she is a “low profile” type, or sumthin’ like that. It’s always said,”Great eagle hides it’s claw.” Cool!
I think Angga just translate the article so it is more their fault than him. Perhaps he can point out some additional fact those media missed. They often missed some important detail, didn’t they? Another source that mentioned Cindy’s fluency in Chinese Mandarin are Wiki48 (http://stage48.net/wiki/index.php/Cindy_Gulla)
Or we could add another probability where I might mistranslated the article as the disclaimer stated above
here is other news in Taiwanese website about panda in English: http://focustaiwan.tw/ShowNews/WebNews_Detail.aspx?Type=aALL&ID=201301010030
What could be more realistic is that JKT48 and SNH48 are doing combined concert across East / Southeast Asian countries.. that would be interesting..
Shinta Naomi and Sinka Juliani from second generation also have Taiwanese father
