She also expressed her desire to start a vocal and music academy to guide singers in the local music industry.

Ning said she was also planning a largescale concert to mark her 25th anniversar­y in the industry, adding that she was looking forward to holding a stadium concert like that by Datuk Siti Nurhaliza in Stadium Negara recently.
