My (formerly My FM, stylised as MY on radio)^[2] is a Malaysian-Chinese language radio station managed by Astro Radio, a subsidiary of Astro Malaysia Holdings Berhad. In 2015, as according to Nielsen RAM Survey Wave #1, My FM maintained its position as Malaysia's leading Chinese-language station with over 2.0 million listeners,^[3] it was challenged by 988 which is currently the leading Chinese radio station there.

History

My FM went on air on 1 August 1998, after previously broadcast as an Astro-only radio channel since the launch of the satellite network on 1 June 1996 under the name Chuan Zhen Xin Qu Tai (Chinese name: 傳真心曲台, literally "Fax heart song"). Prior to this, the frequencies of MY FM was used by TalkRadio, along with Hitz FM, Mix FM, Light & Easy and Classic Rock (still available on Astro and online, frequency taken over by Era FM, which also began broadcasting on 1 August of that year) was among the earliest privately owned English language radio stations to be broadcast in Malaysia, having launched into the airwaves on New Year's Day 1997 at midnight stroke MST. It was the second private Chinese radio station in Malaysia after REDI-FM 98.8 (now 988), which had begun broadcasting two years earlier as a trilingual station, but Chinese content represents 50 percent of its programming before it was relaunched as full-fledged Chinese radio station in December 1997. The country had only one Chinese-language radio station before this, which was the government-owned Radio Malaysia Channel 5.

Originally, the radio station mainly focused on Chinese songs for all ages. However, with the launch of Melody FM in August 2012, which replaced XFM on Astro and FM frequencies (continued as an online station but now defunct), some older songs and announcers were moved from MY FM to that new radio station.

Astro Radio stopped operations in Sabah and Sarawak and will be returned to Bukit Jalil^[4]

On 1 October 2023, Astro Radio has stopped its operations in Sabah and Sarawak. The Chinese language channel, My Sabah and My Sarawak will have their broadcasts returned to Kuala Lumpur.^{[citation needed]}
