KL FM is a Malay language-regional radio station operated by Radio Televisyen Malaysia. Its main radio station is in the International Broadcasting Centre, Angkasapuri.

History[edit]

As Radio Malaysia Ibukota, in 1985, RMIK aired 15-minute Japanese lessons under the title Moshi Moshi, hosted by deejay Mohamed Nor Mohamed Amin, also known as Noramin, previously worked with Radio Japan. Airing weekdays at 5:30 pm, the lessons would start by playing a Japanese song, followed by asking listeners to start their calls with the "moshi moshi" greeting. The show received positive response by listeners and the press. [2]
