In the Wave 2 of GfK Radio Hearing Measurement survey 2023, Malaysia’s Suria FM maintained highest weekly time spent listening (TSL) among four commercial Malay-language radio stations.
The station achieved a weekly TSL of 6 hours and 37 minutes and 3.2 million weekly listeners.
It had previously emerged on top among four commercial Malay-language stations in the first survey, Wave 1 2023, in April.
The Suria Cinta segment (Sunday to Friday, 8pm to 1am), hosted by DJ Lin, retains the highest weekly TSL across all Malay-language commercial stations, with 3 hours and 5 minutes.
Weekday segments like Cik Piah’s Gaya Suria (10am to 1pm) and Muzik Top Suria (1pm to 3pm), as well as Sharifah Shahirah and Tyzo’s Suria Petang (3pm to 7pm) also recorded the highest TSL among four Malay-language radio stations.
Meanwhile, the Morning Morning Suria segment (weekdays, 6am to 10am), hosted by Ajak, Shuib and Suraya, recorded the second-highest TSL among four Malay-language radio stations, with 2 hours and 22 minutes.
“Suria FM just celebrated its 16th anniversary on Nov 24, and the results for Wave 2 2023 serve as a meaningful gift for the whole Suria FM community. Thank you to all the listeners who continue to support and choose Suria as their preferred radio station and for making us relevant in the radio industry until now,” said DJ Lin, who’s also the station’s general manager.
