FOUR (Malaysia)

Not to be confused with an similar project someone made at “Your dream TV network”.

FOUR is an TV channel dedicated to airing general entertainment, dramas, reality shows and movies. Children’s programmes will air on the network months after the channel launched.

The channel will launch on 31 August, coinciding with its coverage of the Independence Day Parade. The network secured its content agreements with the world’s leading reality markets such as Banijay, Fremantle and All3Media, plus American major motion picture studios such as Paramount Pictures and Walt Disney Pictures. The network also airs Mediacorp programmes and even an overnight CNA feed.

The network broadcasts in four languages, hence the channel’s name: Malay, English, Chinese and Tamil.

NOTE: This channel is based in Malaysia and not within Australia and New Zealand.

The launch schedule will feature not only the coverage of the Independence Day Parade, but some “in concert” specials such as Katy Perry: Night of a Lifetime (from Fremantle) and more, plus with Singapore National Day Parade 2025 and Singapore National Day Concert 2025 from Mediacorp (Singapore).
