Gen FM’s host Kemal sang the line one early morning, greeting his listeners as he started his show Semangat Pagi (The Morning Spirit) with his partner TJ.

Yes: Realize it or not, just like your hot cup of coffee, the radio could be your mood-raiser in the morning, as it greets your day with jokes — something your MP3 player couldn’t do.
“For me, listening to music from a CD or MP3 player is so boring,” says 16-year-old Garit Kirana of SMU 2 Bekasi state senior high school. “I’d rather tune in to the radio because it’s so much more entertaining. They have people who talk; I can also listen to some funny shows,” adds the fan of Gen FM.
