Malaysian singer, Jeryl Lee Pei Ling is officially this year’s winner of the singing competition, The Next 2023. The 23-year-old who is from Penang, was announced as the winner after performing her rendition of Believer by Imagine Dragons in the final round.

“Hello everyone, I am Lee Pei Ling from Malaysia. Also, the overall champion of Stage 2023. To this day, I still feel like I am dreaming. I am really grateful to everyone around me,” wrote the Penang native on her Instagram.
“I have been singing for 15 years. It’s really not easy to keep singing until now. Every time when I want to give up, I tell myself to hang in there for a little while more. This time, I can confidently say I did it.”

“Thank you for your recognition, encouragement, and care for me. It helped me find my confidence and my original love for singing. Thank you very much for your trust and recognition of me,” she added.
