History

Orange Sky Golden Harvest, a cinema operator based in Hong Kong was instrumental in the formation of Tanjong Golden Village, a joint venture with Tanjong of Malaysia and Village Roadshow of Australia. Tanjong bought out the remaining stakes for full ownership. The first TGV cinema in Malaysia opened in November 1994 at Bukit Raja Shopping Centre. More than 30 cinemas were opened around Malaysia only during 2005. The first English movie shown was King Kong, and the second Tamil movie was Anniyan. In 2013, TGV started distributing movies theatrically.[5]
