Molek FM, stylized as molek fm is a Malaysian private radio station operated by Media Prima Audio, a radio subsidiary of Media Prima Berhad, serving the East Coast areas of Peninsular Malaysia.[1] The Station operates 24 hours daily from the Company's Balai Berita headquarters in Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur. The Station is targeted to listeners aged 18 to 39, as well as East Coast peninsular listeners aged 24 to 34.[2][3]
Prior to the Station's launch, the East Coast peninsular region only had two Malay radio networks for the specific audience: Manis FM and THR Gegar owned by Astro Radio.
Molek FM began test transmission on 2 January 2022 and began official broadcasts a week later, on 9 January.[4][5] Molek FM plays songs from the 80s and 90s, as well as Malay, Hindi, Indonesian, English and Thai hits that serve the East Coast peninsular audience.
On 31 May 2022, Molek FM was awarded the "Excellence In Media Communication" trophy for the radio category through the Kelantan Entrepreneurship Business Awards 2022 which took place in Kota Bharu, Kelantan.[6]
On 2 October 2022, Molek FM began broadcasting in Kuantan, Pahang through the frequency of 100.4 MHz which transmitted from Bukit Pelindung to replace the Chinese language radio station slot under Media Prima Audio which is 8FM (formerly One FM).
