Excerpt from the Wikipedia article Languages of Malaysia:
English is widely understood and spoken within the urban areas of the country; the English language is a compulsory subject in primary and secondary education. It is also the main medium of instruction within most private colleges and private universities. English may take precedence over Malay in certain official contexts as provided for by the National Language Act
Given that and the fact that the people of Malaysia speak several different first languages but the overwhelming majority speak English as a second language, it’s not much of a stretch for there to be English sections of their TV guide 🤷
I like how the Malaysian TV guide is in English
