Juwita Profiled in Style: Malaysia - July 1, 2007

"While her career soars, singer Juwita Suwito's feet are firmly planted on the ground."

Read the full-page article in the July 2007 issue of Style: Malaysia.
Here's our favourite part:
"... that's how Juwita is: possessing a youthful fascination and genuine appreciation for things. Perhaps that's what is fuelling her songwriting. And this singer 'lives' her songs. The positivism in her tracks is a reflection of her worldview, which she attributes to her parents and faith."
