Junior AleziRadio Festival of Songs 1998 is the first edition of the annual Junior AleziRadio Festival of Songs, which was held in Independence Hall of Metropolitan Zafizamarrah of the region of Zafizamarrah. The competition was born from a petition from schools throughout North Alezia asking for a "child" version of the annual AleziRadio Festival of Songs, in order to "raise competitive friendship inbetween regions, and to promote each other's regional culture in the midst of the economic boom".
The competition was won by the host region itself, Zafizamarrah. With Hani Yusamuraddin's "أعمل لي معروفا". This is Zafizamarrah's first win at the Junior AleziRadio Festival of Songs.
It was then decided that children from age 8-16 can compete in the Junior AleziRadio Festival of Songs with it being held in 19th of November of every year. The decision to hold the contest on that date was due to the fact that it happened on the start of Astalji (Winter Festival), which is a national holiday in North Alezia (and eventually the Alezian Union) that happened from November to January the next year.
For the first edition, AleziRadio opened bidding for regions and territories who wanted to host the competition. This time, Zafizamarrah (City of Hashama, City of Oldport-Newport, and Metropolitan City of Zafizamarrah) and Daya Island (Aaren) submitted their bids to the ARFOS committee. Eventually, Metropolitan Zafizamarrah was selected to host the competition.
This competition is also the first time that Internet Voting was introduced, earlier than it's sister show, AleziRadio Festival of Songs which only introduced internet voting in 1999. This competition is also different from ARFOS where it's now optional to use the orchestra. JrARFOS rules only allows children from ages 13-16 conducting the song. Also, in JrARFOS, each region only sends one song compared to the adult version's two song per region.
