Petaling Jaya– dimsum, Malaysian-based subscription video-on-demand service, celebrates its first anniversary this month and will mark the occasion with a raft of events, including the meet-and-greets with Thailand and Singapore stars.
To kick off its celebration, dimsum launched a star-studded “Celebrate Asia with Us” event at Sunway Pyramid from 1 to 3 December 2017, where there will be a meet-the-fans session with the cast from the big budget Singaporean series “When Duty Calls” on 1 December 2017, followed by a Thai fans meet with Esther Supreeleela and Pathompong Reonchaidee (Toy) on 3 December 2017.
