      The ABU Popular Song Contest (also known as the Asia Broadcasting Union Song Contest) was a competitive song contest created by the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) based on the Eurovision Song Contest. It ran for three editions from 1985 to 1987.


      Background and development


      Prior to the ABU Popular Song Contest, there was the short-lived, Pacific Song Festival. In 1979, there were seven entries, one each from Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, New Zealand and Philippines with New Zealand winning with the song "Nothing but Dreams", written by Carl Doy and performed by Tina Cross.
      In 1980, Cross entered again for New Zealand, coming second with the song "Once Again With You". Australia came first.
