From ancient voyages 🚢 to modern diplomacy, China and Malaysia are marking 50 years of friendship with a media blitz! CGTN and Bernama, their flagship broadcasters, are dropping joint documentaries and roundtables to spotlight five centuries of cultural exchange and economic partnership.
Think ‘House of the Dragon’ meets history class 🎥: The shows will trace back to 15th-century explorer Admiral Zheng He’s Malaysian links, then zoom into today’s trade and tech ties. Nor Hamzeela Md Hambali of Bernama TV teased behind-the-scenes collab vibes: ‘We swapped crews—Bernama filmed two weeks in China, CGTN spent five days here. It’s like a cultural mixtape!’
Why care? With Malaysia being China’s top ASEAN trade pal 🤝 (think EVs and durians 🚗💨), this isn’t just nostalgia—it’s a roadmap for Gen Z’s global future. Stay tuned for air dates!
