1st Golden Wau Awards 金筝奖
Kuala Lumpur, 18th October 2013 – Our Malaysia 1st Golden Wau Awards has happened a few days ago on 15th October 2013 (Tuesday) at Pullman Hotel, Bangsar. It was filled with glitz and glamour as it was attended by a lot of well-known celebrities from both local and international.
Red Carpet Ceremony
It was no doubt a star studded red carpet ceremony. From the beginning of the red carpet session until the end, the fans and media members were greeted by many prominent figures in film industry.

Awards
Ceremony
Despite being organized for the first
time, the event was very well managed and it has a good flow between awards and
performances. Almost every time after two awards were given, the audiences were
entertained by either LIVE Performance or some comedic sponsored videos for Sweet Dreams, the main sponsor for 1st
Golden Wau Awards. All of the funny videos were parodies from the scenes in
local films.
Many awards were given out during that
night as an encouragement for all the people who have worked hard in this
industry. (The lists of awards and the
winners can be found at the end of the post.)
There are quite a few highlights during the
awards show:
The
“daughter” Elanne Kwong awarding the “mom” Kara Hui!
I am sure most of you have watched “The Wedding Diary” before and if you
did, you will know that Elanne Kwong
is the daughter for Kara Hui in the
movie. Ironically, the award for Best
Supporting Actress was granted by the “daughter” to the “mom”. Kara felt
very happy and she said that Malaysia has provided her with many great
opportunities in her career.
Jack
Lim became super Thin within a few months?
When Jack Lim was announced as The
Best Supporting Actor by Mark Lee and
Elanne Kwong, a thin guy went on
stage to receive the awards from them. Mark
Lee jokingly said, “You can’t lie to me! The Jack Lim I remembered was not
this thin. How could it be possible for a guy to thin down so quickly within
months?” Well, the guy was just a representative because Jack Lim was not able to attend the awards show.
Mark
Lee has also added, “This has proven that
1st Golden Wau Awards is
very fair because even the absentees can win the prize!”
This has shown that the awards were
given based on fair judging by panels and were not biased to “only those who
attend can win” basis.
Afdlin
Shauki met Crystal Lee!
It was a moment filled with laughter as
Malaysia famous actor/director Afdlin
Shauki stood on the same stage with Crystal
Lee 李馨巧, one of the youngest Malaysia actress who has achieved
unbelievable results at international level. Afdlin and Crystal were both
praising each other in the beginning. Until Afdlin discovered that Crystal was
actually already a Best Actress in the recent Shanghai awards at such a young
age, he jokingly turned his face away from Crystal. His facial expression was
priceless. Well, it’s all part of the joke either way and the moment has made
everyone on the floor laughed.
Pioneer
Awards! 黎明and 韩瑛!
Pioneer
Awards is an award given to
commemorate those who have made a great difference in Malaysia film industry.
Without these individuals, Malaysia film industry would not have progressed
until the stage now. Thus, 黎明and 韩瑛 who have been acting for the past 50-60 years in
Malaysia totally deserved the award without a doubt. Everyone on the floor
stood up as a respect for them when they were announced as the winners for The Pioneer Awards!
A
Phone Call from Ah Niu! Lee Sinje screamed in excitement!
During the Best Actress Awards, when Lee Sinje was announced
as the best actress, Ah Niu made a phone call for her. She screamed in joy when
she was told that she was the winner. Ah Niu joked and asked her to calm down
as her voice was projected to everyone present at the award show.
Jack
Neo as the Best Actor!
When Jack Neo was announced as The
Best Actor, he has invited his wife on stage to celebrate the moment with
him. This was his second awards during the night. Thus, making him one of the
biggest winner of the night.
Best
Director Chiu Keng Guan “Great Day”!
It was a great moment for director Chiu Keng Guan as his movie “Great Day” has earned him the best
director awards. He mentioned that his upcoming film will be in cinema next
year. Currently, it was planned to be released during CNY period but it was yet to be confirmed again.
Best
Movie Awards, Ah Niu’s “Ice Kacang Puppy Love”!
