The Paranormal Zone official launch!! Congrats to Celebrity Host Ms. Li Kim!!

Last night, The Paranormal Zone had their official launch party! It was an invitation-only event, held at Ecoba. A press conference was held prior to the launch party at 4pm. Members of Malaysia’s major dailies and media turned up, including the Star, Malay Mail, New Straits Times, the Sun, Malaysian Tatler, Mun Sang Pau, NTV7, Men’s Health, Galaxie and Inspire FM!! They were all excited to witness the launch of a different kind of paranormal investigation… and apparently the only Malaysian-produced paranormal show hosted in English!

The Paranormal Zone investigates unseen phenomena that is experienced by the everyday, average Joe… Maybe there were will be scenes which you can identify with?? This show is hosted by Kechara’s Ms. Li Kim!

Before the press conference began, the photographers did a quick photocall with Li Kim who is very photogenic and a natural in front of the camera. After a few shots for the press, Dato’ Ruby (Executive Producer of The Paranormal Zone) opened the press conference with a speech. She spoke about how her parents and grandparents had many supernatural experiences, and how they were very common back in the day during the Communist Emergency and Japanese invasion.

The press and partygoers had the privilege to be the first to preview TPZ’s pilot series… In this episode, our celebrity host Li Kim goes to visit a sifu and a professor, and she learns about ghost children, like kwai chais (Chinese) and toyols (Malay)… it was interesting and captivating to say the least!

Datuk Sheila Majid, a good friend of Li Kim’s who is featured in one of the episodes, was overseas and couldn’t make the event. However, she sent Li Kim a video recording to congratulate her, which was played for everyone to watch… very exciting! After the video, Li Kim answered a few questions from the floor, did several one-on-one interviews with members of the media, took a few photos with fans… and then the party started!

Li Kim is a natural host. If she’s scared, she’s really scared… If she’s not impressed, she’s not impressed… If she’s excited, she’s excited. She is always herself for sure! She has the stage presence of a star, and is a natural joker. Very comfortable with a crowd and on stage…you’ll see for yourself. I heard that many people were laughing as her response to questions were witty and humorous. Sounds like the Li Kim we know! Li Kim is someone I know who has a huge heart of gold, kind, soft and very witty. Her friends adore her as she adores her friends.

The first episode will air on Malaysia’s NTV7 at 9pm, on October 1st. Do watch out for it! Do not miss this hit show!!

Mission to the Unknown

BY S. INDRA SATHIABALAN

Somewhat similar to the television series-and-movie Charlie’s Angels where Charlie sends his ‘angels’ out on missions, The Paranormal Zone will see Master Tsem sending Phng Li Kim and her team on missions.

But in this case, Phng and her team will not be fighting bad dudes but investigating matters of a different kind – paranormal activities.

Although there are many televisions series out there covering the same subject, the approach on this series is slightly different, says Phng, who is the host and producer of this series. Phng is also known as the force behing Kechara publishing house.

At the end of each of the 30-minute episodes, this intrepid host will write a report to Master Tsem based on her findings and views on the featured case.

Phng was asked if she has the sixth sense to see “ghosts”.

“Can I see them? No. Have I developed a sharp awareness towards them since shooting for this series? I would say yes,” said this newly-ninted celebrity host.

Phng added that she has always believed in ghosts. She has faith that whatever researched by the production’s researcher, Wendy Loh who is also the series’ scriptwriter, is practiced in this country.

Considering that there are other shows that follow a similar vein out there, Phng said that they hope to avoid covering similar things.

“Wendy has been researching the paranormal for 10 years now. We ensure everything is credible before shooting.”

However, Phng admitted to being sceptical on certain areas of the paranormal domain.

“I was sceptical during the filming of the episode on tarot cards. I have always been uncertain about it. However, I didn’t let that stop me from exploring and learning more. I still went in objectively.”

There were also moments during the shoots, in which she was really scared.

“Sitting in a haunted house up north was spooky. It had an energy – it is always about energy. You know something is there.

“What I do in order to calm myself(I have been told by researchers) is that I always tell them (the unseen occupants) why I am there.”

[This is a norm that many practice, including this writer, when staying at hotels]

Phng then pointed out the series’ tagline that reads: ‘What we see may not be real, what is real we may not see’.

“They are out there. They exist. We should not deny them and think they are bad. They are there.”

As for what the series will and will not cover, she said: “Our scope covers all paranormal activity; everyday things outside our logical base and surroundings – things that a logical mind and empirical science may not be able to explain.”

With all 13 episodes shot (production work started at the end of last year), the team is hoping that the response from the public is good enough for the series to be commissioned for a second season.

The Paranormal Zone will premiere on NTV7 on Oct 1st at 9 pm.

The paranormal is a very interesting subject matter that many Malaysians would love to watch and talk about. I myself love anything to do with the Paranormal.The team really put efforts to produce the show .
Like many other topics, the paranormal topic serves to counter our ideology that humans are the only beings ruling the world.All the best and congratulation.

Li Kheng on Dec 18, 2015 at 2:47 pm

It is quite amazing to look at these images and read the content. Today is Dec 2015, 3 short years later, and Li Kim has grown to become an international TV Host who host events next to celebrities like Utt. The Paranormal Zone is broadcasted in more than 14 different countries. Li Kim and her crew is flying to destinations like Indonesia, Thailand etc to capture stories to share with fans.

Hard work and support from an unconditional mother (Datuk May Phng) are certainly an ingredient for success especially in an industry as competitive as the entertainment business. However, the guidance of her beloved Guru – Tsem Rinpoche and the protection of the compassionate Dorje Shugden is certainly essential to this career development.

Thank you Rinpoche for being a crucial part of making Li Kim’s dreams come true.

I like to watch this programme on TV 7. For me it is real. I was siamese black magic for 16 years till now by my malay office friend because I got promotion. They are 4 of them united to destroy me. Very sad that one of them is called “ustaz” islamic teaching, one malay lady twice to mecca, the ustaz wife number two wearing “jilbab’, and a ‘runner’ taking people to do black magic. They group together to fight me alone. I got to leave my job and spent lot of money to cure. Now I am attach to a siamese practice; but unfortunately I got no enough money to defend myself.Now I just receiving hot black magic send by them to make me die.

The TPZ is going to be a very interesting and challenging blog in Kechara. Congratulation to Li Kim and her team in setting up this special project to seek and go beyond the human expectation and find a plausible answer to all the mysteries of the spiritual and material world. To those whose minds are filled with curiosity and without fear, they will be the one who will find the answers to the many unsolved mysteries in good time. Keep this TPZ alive always.

Andrew Boon on Sep 25, 2012 at 7:05 pm

Wonderful!!! Li Kim looks very much in her element as the host of Tsem Paranormal. She is very natural and charismatic on camera… picture perfect! I can’t wait to watch the pilot episode. So far we have had snippets of it in the teasers and I am hooked!!! Congratulations to the entire Tsem Paranormal Team and of course to Rinpoche for Rinpoche’s vision and encouragement to all involved!

Martin on Sep 25, 2012 at 3:07 am

Congratulations to Li Kim and the TPZ team. When you see some of the footages and you hear the stories, it is clear that Li Kim, Ms Han and the team went well out of their comfort zones to do this. This will again put Kechara on the map.

And to think that something this grand came out of Rinpoche’s initiative to start a paranormal section one day not so long ago and Li Kim made the decision to follow though with Rinpoche’s advice.

I wish LI Kim and the team every success.

Wah Ying on Sep 22, 2012 at 11:34 pm

Congratulations to Li Kim and TPZ team! We have waiting for so long and finally we can watch the show on air by this October. I am so curious whenever TPZ team reveals only piece and pieces of the series.

All must watch the show from series 1 to 13 starting from 1 October!

David Lai on Sep 22, 2012 at 6:04 am

Congratulations to Li Kim for a very successful launch of The Paranormal Zone. I think the show will be a hit and I am sure the Paranormal is a very interesting subject matter that many Malaysians would love to watch and talk about. I myself love anything to do with the Paranormal. It’s just so much more fun being scared if you know what I mean. Anyway, she has come a long way since her early days in KMP leading a ragtag team. I kinda miss those days a little and wish her all the best in her new found career as the celebrity hostess with the ‘mostest’.

Sean Pang on Sep 22, 2012 at 4:54 am

Li Kim: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

Rock Star, Super Star, Star Star!!

Will there be recordings of the show available? We can’t receive NTV7 from Shanghai leh…

Sean in Shanghai

- Li Kim on Oct 14, 2012 at 2:25 am
  
  Hi Sean…. Thank you for your wishes. I am negotiating to have this available via mobile TV app. Once it is up, you will know… Take care in Shanghai and give my love to Christine.
  
Carmen on Sep 21, 2012 at 1:07 pm

Dear Li Kim, Dato’ Ruby, Ms Han, TPZ Crew

Congratulations on the very successful launch and I am sure each guest left with a deeper impression and respect for the team and Kechara. I have seen Li Kim gradually build herself to today – it takes alot of hard work. What’s amazing is that her personality on and off the stage is the same; so natural with her intelligence, wit, humour and eloquence.

Many people have asked why the paranormal..my answer is why not?! Like many other topics, the paranormal topic serves to counter our ideology that humans are the only beings ruling the world. But, it doesn’t mean what we cannot see is not there. There are many realms of other beings around and compassion and respect has to be shown to ALL SENTIENT BEINGS; just as Buddha taught.

I am very much looking forward to the launch of this tv series.

Love,
Carmen

- DR on Sep 22, 2012 at 11:36 am
  
  Yes Carmen, Li Kim’s personality on and off the stage is the same. She is a natural; when she is scared, she is scared. When she is happy, she is very happy. When she is unimpressed, nothing changes her. Natural and unpretentious. That is why people find her endearing; friends and media alike.
  
Louise Lee on Sep 21, 2012 at 8:04 am

Gong xi gong xi. I can’t wait to see the series on tv! Every time I meet peOple, I’ll tell them STAY TUNE NTV7 1/10/12 9pm’

I am so proud of you!

Please give me more! 🙂

Li Kim on Sep 21, 2012 at 2:34 am

Thank you everyone for all the best wishes. I cannot express enough my gratitude to Rinpoche for believing in me. And of course the team behind “the Host” is key to the success of the Host. I am serious… “I alone cannot but together we can” – Thank you EVERYONE!!!! Let’s take this series to new heights.

Thank you Rinpoche for your blessings. I will always maintain humility and focus on the bigger picture beyond the “fame and glory”… Much love and respect, Li Kim

william on Sep 21, 2012 at 2:06 am

It was such a great party last night. There were a lot of people who attended and were impressed with our host Li Kim. Li Kim was very charismatic on stage, as usual, as she charmed the guests and media with her humour and wit.

A lot of people could not believe that this TV program is produced by Kechara’s own in house talent and also Kechara’s own production company. Kechara is definitely going out of the norm to promote Dharma. And everyone was surprised.

judy lam on Sep 21, 2012 at 12:48 am

Can’t say enough of ‘Congratulations’ to Li Kim and TPZ team for a successful launch party last night! We must thank the press for being supportive of this launch and for everyone present-they did enjoy themselves. Can’t wait to see the debut on Oct 1, ntv7, 9 pm. In total, there will be 13 series every Monday night! How exciting!

  Thank you Judy for all your help with the Press Conference and Launch!! You are much appreciated!
  
Datuk May on Sep 21, 2012 at 12:25 am

I was at the launch party and really enjoyed my daughter, LiKim on stage. She is witty and funny and looks good too. I am very proud of her and what KIM and the TPZ team have done.

Lovely dress by Kechara Designer, Eric Choong.

Viva Kechara and congratulations to our new Kechara Executive Producer Dato Ruby Khong and Producer, Miss Han.

abby F on Sep 20, 2012 at 2:40 pm

I’m very proud of my boss! And the fact is, I never know my boss could be a super star too! LOL. Congratulations to Li Kim and the TPZ team. The team really put efforts to produce the show and the launch yesterday. From Li Kim’s speech, I learnt that she has full confidence to do the show as she has Rinpoche’s blessing and guidance.

KMP always loves Li Kim. We will go all the way to support her in KMP. 🙂

sweekeong on Sep 20, 2012 at 1:57 pm

First time seeing Li Kim on stage. She is very funny and natural as a host. A short previews of some of the episode are shown. The previews gave off the feeling of supernatural and paranormal to the viewer, creepy and funny sometimes. This is great locally produced show, don’t miss it! 🙂

Carmen Lin on Sep 20, 2012 at 10:49 am

Congratulations to the very talented Li Kim and The Paranormal Team!!! The launch was a great success, everyone was having a great moment and enjoying themselves!! It was such a great opportunity for me to learn the Dharma in a non Dharmic way ヽ(^。^)ノ, being able to work in KMP under the wings of Li Kim, and the KMP team is truly a blessing. Moreover, the speech by Li Kim yesterday was really brilliant, she truly is a natural joker! Rejoice for all └(^o^)┘ & All the best to Li Kim and The Paranormal Team ∠(≧◇≦)

Marleene Mohd Seth on Sep 20, 2012 at 8:23 am

I was at the launch with my cousin and a good friend. They were amazed at what they saw: EVeryone was having such a good time. The atmosphere was not what they expected from a religious function. Every Kecharian they met talked about the change in their life and how Rinpoche was a major contributor to this. They showed great respect and total devotion to their Guru. They could be who they are and can still practice Dharma and contribute to the good of the society. Amazing!!!

Grace Leong on Sep 20, 2012 at 8:01 am

Congratulations to Li Kim and ALL in the Paranormal team !!! It must have been an amazing journey from the start of this project till today ! This great success is a clear example of how nothing is impossible to achieve , especially With the guidance and blessings of Rinpoche !
