JAKARTA - The death of Dorce Gamalama today seems to bring sadness to the Indonesian entertainment industry because of the loss of a very talented figure. Of course it was also felt by his friends including Dai Pais.
Dai Pais explained that he was always involved by Dorce during Islamic holidays as a lecturer. He now feels the loss of a figure who is considered very religious even though he often appears funny on stage or on the small screen.
"On Islamic holidays he is always at the forefront. Finally, during Eid, he didn't fast because he was sick, he then called me 'Ustad Pais pays my fidyah for not fasting. That was the last fidyah from him to me," said Pais when met by VOI at the Bantar Jati TPU, East Jakarta, Wednesday, February 16.
As a friend, he didn't feel any special inkling about Dorce's departure today. It's just that Pais had felt something odd when praying for Dorce when he was undergoing Umrah.
"Lastly I went on Umrah, I WA and prayed for his recovery. He usually uses a voice note when replying to the chat, so when I went on Umrah I said 'Bun, I hope you get well soon, get better soon, and can cheer you up again,' and he only replied briefly Amen, no normal," he said.
He is now sincere, his friend has passed away and hopes that the community will pray for Dorce Gamalama and talk about good things about him.
"We sincerely let him go, hopefully all the people pray for him. For those who died, talk about what is fine. There is no need to talk about what is not good about him," he concluded.
