List of Malay Film Productions films explained

The Malay Film Productions (MFP), also known as the Shaw Studio, is a former film studio located on Jalan Ampas in Balestier, Singapore. The studio operated from 1947 to 1969 with more than 150 movies produced, and was a major contributor to the Golden Age of Malay Cinema.^{[1] [2]} Many of the films are critically acclaimed, a significant number of which involved P. Ramlee as actor, director, writer or composer.^[3]
