Voting Procedures
There are several differences in voting and tabulation between
Asian Idol and other Idol shows. Unlike the latter wherein the
viewers get to vote for one contestant, the voting procedure for
Asian Idol requires viewers to vote for two favorite Idols, thus
allowing contestants to receive votes from their respective
countries.
As consideration on population size among the participating
countries, tabulation of votes are done through an "Equal and Even
Cumulative Method", wherein the total votes of each country are
converted into percentages.
