Ai FM (Chinese name: 爱 FM, literally "Love FM"), formerly known as Radio 5 and Radio Malaysia Saluran 5 (Radio Malaysia Channel 5) is a national Chinese radio station operated by Radio Televisyen Malaysia established in 1934. It is broadcast 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

For 62 years, it is Malaysia's only Chinese-language radio station. The monopoly was broken in 1996-97 when Redi FM began broadcasting as a trilingual radio station, which was later changed into a full-fledged Chinese-language radio station.
