Undercover Asia

Channel NewsAsia's investigative series returns for a second season as we go undercover to expose the secret underbelly of Asia. Through one hour, in-depth documentaries, we explore stories of crime, violence and injustice in various parts of Asia.

CNA's award-winning flagship investigative series returns for the seventh year to uncover the hard truths in the underbelly of Asia and shine the light on the plight of the disenfranchised and the displaced. This season, we investigate the unexpected fallout in Indonesia from China’s decision to ban plastic waste; the causes and consequences of South Korea’s massive household debt; the rise of non-consensual porn in Singapore; and the dark side of the quest for white skin in the Philippines.
