Asia Bagus! was a star-search program created by Fuji Television spanning from 1991 until 2000 to promote young up-and-coming performing artists in Asia. The show broadcast once a week throughout Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Korea, Japan, Taiwan and Thailand. The prevailing champion over three shows went on to compete in a monthly run-off, while grand championships were held once a year. It was hosted by Tomoko Kadowaki and Najip Ali.[1][2]
The name Asia Bagus! was coined by a Malaysian marketing guru, Prof. Abdul Hamid Mohamed.[citation needed]
Fuji Television, asked me what would be a good name for an Asian got talent show. I said Asia Bagus!. They bought the idea, and I became one of the judges.
— Prof. Abdul Hamid Mohamed
