And the award goes to...

I think I'm not too late to congratulate the winners of Anugerah Juara Lagu ke-23 (translated as The 23rd Champion of Songs Awards in English). I know most of you are not from Malaysia, so here's a bit info of the event;

• One of the big music event in Malaysia.
• Hosted by TV3 every year since 1986.
  
• The songs are taken from a chart (which is based on popular votes from the audience) of a weekly music show aired on TV3.
• 30 songs with the highest votes will compete in semi-finals and 12 of them (sometimes the number change due to producer discretion) will compete in the finals.
• The songs competing in semi-finals and finals will be scored by selected judges.

Here is the list of the winners;
