Mechamato breaks into China
MALAYSIAN animation company Monsta's popular animated series Mechamoto is officially making its debut in China, with streaming set to begin on Youku soon.

'We are thrilled Mechamato will soon be airing in China through a new partnership with Youku. 'This partnership extends far beyond broadcasting, paving the way for thrilling ventures into licensing and merchandising that will elevate our brand to new heights. We look forward to working more closely with partners in China and building strong, long-term relationships in the region,' said Monsta CEO Nizam Abd Razak Behind Mechamato's success lies the significant role of Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation, Malaysia's leading digital agency under the purview of the Digital Ministry that has been actively driving the growth of Malaysia's animation industry onto the global stage. This marks a bold new milestone for the series following its remarkable success penetrating more than 75 countries and airing across 10 different broadcasters in Japan alone.
