WIN Astro 20 Exclusive Travel Experiences This 20th Anniversary!

Time flies and it is already Astro's 20th Anniversary this year. So many things have changed over the years especially since the invention of PVR that lets you watch your favourite show anytime. On this festive day 10th of Oct 2016, Astro announced its grand celebration with 20 Exclusive Ónce-In-A-Lifetime' Experience for all Astro subscribers. Free preview of new Astro Channels until year end and free access to Astro Fest to be held at Sunway Lagoon Theme Park soon.

Let's just see what was in store during the celebration shall we? Since I arrived early at Astro office, there were many booths opened at the lobby where everyone including Astro staff can play the games, take photos to win exclusive merchandises. It was like mini funfair for us and I gotta say I love the MTV's 360 Video, Cartoon Sketching at Disneyland booth and being able to meet all the mascots from my favourite cartoon!! (Especially Mickey)

It was a great day to meet Astro artists in one same place too, special guest like Kim RaeWon 金来沅 from 'Doctors' Korean Drama (on OneHD) made a special appearance too.
