The MTV Asia Awards was the Asian equivalent of the Europe MTV EMA. Established in 2002, the show gives recognition and awards to Asian and international artists in achievement, cinema, fashion, humanitarian, and music. Just like the EMA, most of the awards are voted for by the viewers from the Asian region. The latest trophy design is a gold toblerone-like bar. The twin prism shape represents the letter M and double A, the acronyms for MTV Asia Awards. The show was absent in 2007 and was discontinued since 2009.
