Angkasapuri, Broadcasting headquarters in Lembah Pantai, Malaysia.

Angkasapuri is a 10-storey broadcasting complex on about 33 acres at the junction of the Federal Highway and the New Pantai Expressway, its main entrance facing the NPE. The main administration block has seven office floors of roughly 11,000 square feet each, joined by a porch and reception hall to a two-storey production and broadcast wing holding recording studios. The roof carries large letters reading "WAWASAN 2020", and red letters above the recessed ground-floor podium spell "KERANAWY MALAYSIA".

Construction of Angkasapuri began in 1966 and was completed by February 1968; Tunku Abdul Rahman officially opened it on 17 February 1968. Broadcasting from the complex started on 6 October 1969, the same day the Jalan Ampang studios closed with the national anthem. Wisma TV opened on 6 November 1969 and Wisma Radio on 9 May 1972.

Angkasapuri's name combines Malay "angkasa" (sky) and "puri" (palace), a reference to broadcasting. Its Auditorium P. Ramlee is named after the actor-director P. Ramlee (1929–1973), and the complex also houses IPPTAR, the Tun Abdul Razak Institute for Broadcasting and Information, along with the Selangor state station Selangor FM.

The complex can be reached via major roads and a dedicated railway station connected by a pedestrian bridge to the site. Visitors should plan ahead as this is an active workplace with restricted public access to certain areas.

On 1 January 1988, 500 staff of the Ministry of Information raised a flag 85.3 metres long and 24.3 metres wide, sewn from 60 rolls of fabric over two weeks, for ten minutes from 09:00 before 5,000 colleagues. The Malay Wikipedia entry dates the same giant-flag event to 29 August 1988.
