MTV World Stage Live In Malaysia was a concert series in Malaysia from 2007 to 2015.[1]

On August 15, 2009, MTV Asia staged an outdoor concert at Sunway Lagoon resort in Kuala Lumpur. The event was attended by over 15,000 people[2] and featured a real-time microblogging application where comments and 'tweets' via SMS were displayed on giant screens at the concert venue.[3] The six-hour-long concert was edited into a two-hour special that aired on MTV Asia on August 28, 2009.[4]
