Pop star Dua Lipa announced Friday evening the cancellation of the Indonesia leg of her Asian tour scheduled for Saturday, citing security concerns surrounding the staging of her concert. “ It breaks my heart to say that I won't be able to perform in Jakarta on Saturday », Wrote the British-Albanian on her Instagram account.

The concert was to take place at the Indonesia Arena, which seats some 16,500 people. “ I was looking forward to this evening so much and it really saddens me (…), especially after such a long wait since my last performance in Jakarta “, lamented the star.
