JAKARTA - The 1975 band's lawyers are working hard to settle a lawsuit faced byten Helay et al regarding their controversial appearance in Malaysia last month.

Future Sound Asia (FSA), organizer of the Kuala Lumpur Good Vibes Festival (GVF), demanded That The 1975 pay 12.3 million ringgit or equivalent to Rp40.8 billion in compensation after the "harassment of indecent behavior" that led to the cancellation of the festival.

FSA lawyers previously confirmed that they issued a Claim Letter seven days before the legal proceedings in the UK court began.

In a statement issued to the PA news agency on Wednesday, August 16, David Matthew, FSA's legal adviser, said the resolution process was "ongoing".

"We can confirm that our lawyers have received communications from the band's lawyers and we are continuing to pursue the matter, according to our previous statement," Matthew said.

He continued: "The dispute resolution process is currently underway and on the advice of legal advisers, we have no further comment at this time."

During the appearance of The 1975 on July 21, the first day of the three-day festival was drunk on stage, destroying the drone operated by the organizer and kissing MacDonald' lips in front of the crowd.

The set was cut short and the next day the festival was canceled by the authorities. Not only that, bothiri and The 1975 are also prohibited from appearing in the country.
