		<description>Not to be anti-patriotic, but I sincerely think that a lot of the first round rejects from American Idol could sing better than both our finalists conbined. This is largely due to the unattractive prize of a recording deal that is never going to rake in big bucks in the current state of the Malaysian music industry. No thanks to piracy and lack of pulic support for local artistes, of course - but who can blame them?  Coupled with the already limited pool of real talents in this country, we are never going to get a contender capable of genuinely challenging the rest in the World Idol competition.

Daniel is mediocre at best. Nita is better, but only just.</description>

		<description>oh yea, P.S !! 

well, if we guys and like what HC said " most adults (who are better judges) never contribute a single vote although they love nita", ever have the chance to vote, before their Daniel-obsessive-fan daughter/sister dominate their handphone, well, that would be fair enough ...</description>

		<description>with his looks, it doesnt matter how he sang  ... i remember my sister took my phone, my brothers phone, and both of my parents phone just to vote for this guy ... 

he is just normal, not that special nor that lousy ... but its best to be in one of them if not whats the point of listening to his songs ?? 
for example, american idol reject, William hung makes us laugh, while Malaysian Idol 1 winner, Jac inspiresus ... being an average ?? who cannot do that ... 

whatever izzit, i am unlucky enough to have an obsessive sister who plays this Daniel CD all day long ... and switch my car radio channel, and even replaced my cars CD ...</description>

		<description>I never really bother bout who win or lose.. In fact, i only watched Malaysian Idol at the final.. I heard nita sang once and she indeed has a powerful voice(can take over Jaclyn's place) Unlike daniel, he sang........ I didnt mean to criticise him. But his voice is only *NoRmAL* I wonder why he could get into final. As a chinese girl myself, i also like daniel because he is cute. However, this doesn't mean he should win. This is not MR-Handsome-Cute-Contest but Malaysian idol. The one who is going to represent Malaysia for the Wold idol(or something like dat) Malaysian should have vote someone who can make us proud.(if u know what i mean)</description>

		<description>i think daniel deserves to win because he is mostly consistent. May not be that good but he is consistently good.

Nita at some times deserves to be voted off already, although I must admit that she is much better than daniel at the end.</description>

		<description>Let me state my two cent-worth for all that matters.

I believe the concept of "Idol" as what the competition takes its name as is a running guideline of who should be the winner for Malaysian Idol. An idol should be of a person who'd everyone go crazy for (and of course, this include the girls being the majority) but more than that. An idol ought to be more than a catching personality on-stage. He should embody a form of which people may want to copy and immulate. If this is the case for determining a winner, I guess Daniel has more to offer than Nita - he is immaculately clean and trustworthy in appearance sake. But can he partake the real challenge in the music industry?

People may say he is young thus allowing him plenty of time to adapt and copy and learn (if not) and later improve himself if he has shown a pitchy performance. This may ring some truth but would the programme title itself says "Malaysian Idol" - a person who is already an singing idol by nature. For otherwise, even my grandmother can be the idol.

There is a persona an idol has to live to and singing excellence is definitely one of them. It is sad that money has blurred the true glow of a real idol that night. It is not a simplistic matter where everyone can punch a message just because he or she likes him for his cute face. Malaysian audience ought to have been more mature in picking the real idol. The night, however, was a showcase of disappointment when the unworthy stepped up as the champion.</description>
