History
The radio station's history began as early as 1934, which was before the Second World War and the establishment of the-then Radio Malaya. It was called ZHj Penang. Radio Malaya itself was established 12 years later. After its establishment, the radio station become Perkhidmatan Bahasa Cina (Chinese Language Service), which goes by the name Rangkaian Hijau (Green Network). National radio broadcast from Angkasapuri starts on 9 May 1972. The name changed in 1993 to Radio 5 and Radio Malaysia Channel 5 in 1998. The Malay name, Saluran 5 (Channel 5) is used for short time. It is the oldest Malaysian Chinese-language radio station, and also Malaysia's only Chinese radio station until 1996, 988 FM began broadcasting as a trilingual radio station. The latter changed into a full-fledged Chinese-language radio station. The current name is used since April 2005, due to rebranding of RTM's radio stations.
