Channel NewsAsia’s five-part travelogue series celebrates the diversity of ASEAN’s 10-member states. With a combined population of more than 640 million, ASEAN is the world’s fastest growing region.

 

Join correspondents, Jack Board and Pichayada Promchertchoo, as they go on an amazing journey off the beaten tracks to explore hidden locations outside the large capitals of Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam.

 

Discover a side of the regional bloc not often seen by outsiders as they delve into the topics close to the hearts of the ASEAN people, such as: innovation and entrepreneurship; nature and conservation; communities and culture; textiles; as well as agriculture and food security.

 

This series will take you through the handicraft villages of Yangon; aquaculture farms in Bandung; and eco-resorts in Brunei. There’s no better way to experience the world’s most vibrant and dynamic regions than through The Heart of ASEAN.
