The Malaysian United Indigenous Party (Bersatu) wants the Malaysia government to explain why American pop star Taylor Swift is not performing in Malaysia as part of her global "The Eras Tour".

Malaysia in talks with Swift's team from as early as 2022
Bersatu's legal and constitution bureau deputy chairman Sasha Lyna Abdul Latiff said in a statement on Mar. 6, 2024 that talks between the Malaysia government, under former Prime Minister (PM) Ismail Sabri Yaakob, and Swift's concert promoters began as early as 2022, Sinar Daily and the New Straits Times (NST) reported.

This was earlier than the time when Singapore sealed the deal with Swift to perform in Singapore, which likely took place not too long after a Singaporean team from SportsSG, Kallang Alive Sports Management, and the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY), including its minister Edwin Tong, met with Swift's agents and promoters in Los Angeles in February 2023.


Tong told Mothership on Feb. 28, 2024: We saw an opportunity, we negotiated quickly with them, and we closed the deal quite quickly."

Despite their head-start, Malaysia was unable to seal the deal, while neighbouring Singapore successfully secured the tour, Sasha said.

Sasha asked: "Did the Madani government make any efforts to secure the tour?"

She was referring to the incumbent PM Anwar Ibrahim, who introduced the Malaysia Madani, or Civil Malaysia, slogan on Jan. 19, 2023, shortly after Anwar took office on Nov. 24, 2022.

Bersatu, along with Parti Islam se-Malaysia (Malaysia Islamist Party, or PAS), are the main opposition parties in Malaysia.

Swift has "universal appeal", means a "gold rush"

NST quoted Sasha saying: "Even Indonesia, a Muslim-majority nation, has sought to host [Swift], emphasising her universal appeal."

Sasha added that Swift is not only wanted because of her musical abilities but also her positive influence, namely "Swiftonomics".

Swiftonomics describes the phenomenon where a country's economy is boosted by Swift's presence.

Indonesia's Tourism Minister Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno used the term on Feb. 19, 2024, saying that his country needs "Swiftonomics" to boost tourism, and is considering rolling out incentives to bring in more music, sports and cultural events to lure travellers, Bloomberg and South China Morning Post reported.

Sasha, however, did not use the term in her statement on Mar. 6 when she said the economic impact of Swift's tour cannot be overstated and instead described it as a "gold rush".

Malaysia government must explain
She added: "The lost opportunity to host Taylor Swift's Eras Tour represents a significant setback for Malaysia's economy, particularly amid ongoing challenges."

Sasha said Anwar and Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh must provide an explanation for the missed economic opportunity.

"The public deserves an explanation, particularly considering Singapore's proactive approach," she stressed.

She added that the Madani government is "under pressure to take proactive steps to secure similar economic opportunities involving renowned performers".

Swiftonomics in Singapore
Swift's global The Eras Tour started in Glendale, Arizona, United States on Mar. 17, 2023 and is set to conclude in Vancouver, Canada on Dec. 8, 2024.

The tour consists of 152 shows across five continents, and is expected to rake in more than S$1.34 billion (US$1 billion) in revenue, making it the first tour to do so, and the highest-grossing of all time.

Tong said the economic benefits that Swift brings to Singapore "are assessed to be significant and outweigh the size of the grant".

He was referring to MCCY's grant to support Swift's six shows in Singapore.

However, beyond saying that the grant is "not anywhere as high as speculated", Tong and the relevant authorities have remained tight-lipped on the actual size of the grant.

A change in tune?
Bersatu and PAS is part of the Malaysian Perikatan Nasional (PN) coalition, which has long been known for criticising concert events, NST reported.

PN and PAS were amongst the biggest detractors pushing for Coldplay’s concert in Kuala Lumpur on Nov. 22, 2023 to be called off.

A PAS leader claimed in May 2023 that the concert would encourage "hedonism and deviant cultures" in Malaysia and bring no benefits to "religion, race and country".

Subsequently in November 2023, PN and PAS claimed that the concert would distract the public from the suffering of the Palestinians due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

A "kill switch" that could cut the stage’s electrical power supply and stop a concert immediately was subsequently prepared for Malaysia's Coldplay concert, following The 1975 singer Matt Healy's actions when performing in Malaysia in July 2023.

PAS has also voiced their objections to other international acts such as Blackpink and Billie Ellish.

The former youth chief and information chief of the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), Khairy Jamaluddin and Shahril Sufian Hamdan, have said that Malaysia should emulate Singapore in securing concerts by A-list artists, as well as its efforts in promoting the country, The New Straits Times reported.

Both of them described efforts by Singapore to attract pop star Taylor Swift as a "sharp elbow" during a podcast.

Shahril added:

"Nothing new about it. That's a grudging respect I guess, a recognition of how they (Singapore) do this… and they have been consistent about it."

However, Khairy opined that Malaysia's tumultuous political scene would not encourage Swift to perform in the country.

Khairy: Swift will not come to Malaysia even without Singapore's efforts

Khairy was a former health minister under the government of Ismail Sabri Yaakob, before losing his seat in the 2022 general election. He was then expelled from the party after opposing Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

During a podcast, Khairy added that even without such moves by Singapore, Swift would not come to Malaysia as the country will become "overly political" on such matters.

Previously, Malaysia's opposition party, Parti Islam se-Malaysia (Malaysia Islamist Party, or PAS), was one of the biggest detractors of Coldplay's concert in Kuala Lumpur on Nov. 22, 2023.

A PAS leader claimed in May 2023 that the concert would encourage "hedonism and deviant cultures" in Malaysia and bring no benefits to "religion, race and country".

Subsequently in November 2023, PAS said that the concert would distract the public from the suffering of the Palestinians in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

A "kill switch" that could cut the stage’s electrical power supply and stop a concert immediately was subsequently prepared for Malaysia's Coldplay concert, following The 1975 singer Matt Healy's actions when performing in Malaysia in July 2023.

PAS has also voiced their objections to other international acts such as Blackpink and Billie Ellish.

Shahril: Change will only come when PAS makes comments about lost opportunities from concerts
During the same podcast, Shahril also noted that several Malaysian United Indigenous Party (Bersatu) members had also made comments about opportunities that were lost in securing the Eras Tour.

Both Bersatu and PAS are part of the opposition Perikatan Nasional (PN) coalition.

Khairy responded that such comments from Bersatu members were not enough.

"Unless it came from PAS members of parliament...only then we will see big changes," he added.

Previously on Mar. 6, Bersatu's legal and constitution bureau deputy chairman, Sasha Lyna Abdul Latiff, called for an explanation from Malaysia's Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh as to why Swift did not perform in Malaysia.

She said that talks between the Malaysia government, under former Prime Minister (PM) Ismail Sabri Yaakob, and Swift's concert promoters began as early as 2022.

This was earlier than the time when Singapore sealed the deal with Swift to perform in Singapore, which likely took place not too long after a Singaporean team from SportsSG, Kallang Alive Sports Management, and the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY), including its minister Edwin Tong, met with Swift's agents and promoters in Los Angeles in February 2023.

She asked if Anwar's government had made any efforts to secure the tour.

On Mar. 7, the Deputy Sports Minister, Adam Adli Abd Halim, told Malaysia's Dewan Rakyat (Malaysia's Parliament) that his ministry should not be blamed for failing to secure Swift's concert as it does not fall under his ministry's purview.

He added that the request to organise a concert falls under different ministries, with the Sports Ministry's responsibility pertaining only to the venue, accommodation and logistics, among other matters.
