PETALING JAYA, November 12 — Popular Malaysian singer Datuk Jamal Abdillah, 61, announced the birth of his newborn baby boy El Isaac Yamani yesterday evening.

"I am thankful and grateful to receive this wonderful news and am dumbfounded at the same time.

"I chose yesterday for my wife’s Caesarean delivery date to remember the unique date — November 11 or 11.11. 2020 —  because the date is an easy one to remember,” he told Mstar.
