‘Chim Quy Trong Long’ (Precious Birds In Cage) by singer Van Mai Huong has won the Best Music Video award at the 26th Asian Television Awards.
At the weekend it beat the challenge from nominees from the Philippines, Taiwan, Singapore, and India to win top honors.
It speaks about how modern life has become a big cage that restricts young people’s freedom and implicitly imposes judgments and language violence, and each person is a precious being but is held back by prejudices like a precious bird locked in a cage.

The video has raked in over 6.7 million views on YouTube since premiering in July.
Vietnam’s Jack had won the award last year for his ‘Hoa Hai Duong’ (Camelia).
Due to Covid-19, the event was held online this year on Dec. 10 and 11, and 51 awards were given away.
Launched in 1996 the Asian Television Awards recognize excellence in programming, production, and performance.
I've been a weekend filmmaker/photographer in Seattle, Washington, since 1999. I enjoy routine weekend outings to live concerts, as well as my passion for photography and videography in the form of live music videos.
