KUALA LUMPUR: Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil has congratulated Animonsta Studios (Monsta) on the success of its animation series, Mechamato, for winning the Anime Fan Award at the Tokyo Anime Award Festival (TAAF) 2023.

In a posting on Facebook, Fahmi said Mechamato has brought glory to Malaysia by making history as the first non-Japanese animation to win the award.

"It should be an inspiration for local players in the animation industry. The government will always support the industry's efforts, especially in producing quality work without neglecting local values," he said.
