Run for Dream - Taiwan
"Yen-Po Chen (Tommy Chen) is a famous Taiwanese ultra-marathon athlete, who became the first ever Asian athlete to complete the 4 Deserts Race Series and achieved the title of World Champion, in 2016. The documentary "Run for Dream" records Yen-Po Chen’s exciting yet treacherous ten-year journey to become the champion. The film crew documented a fraction of joined Chen’s journey across the globe. Within a short 6 months, they entered into deserts, went up mountains and plowed through snowfields; they trekked as far as the Arctic Ocean and Antarctica. The film allows audiences to witness Chen’s blood, sweat and tears and his relentless perseverance to continue. It’s a journey filled with love and support from friends and family, and even rival contenders, who displayed frenemy-like brotherhood that made this road to success bittersweet."

Show Me The City: On The Wild Side
"Nature and science unite in surprising symbiosis. Daniel Sid picks up heron spotting skills, puts them to good use by joining the Heron Watch, and contributes to the database of Singapore’s heron population as a citizen scientist. Then, by working with a mangrove expert, Daniel understands how mangroves serve a critical purpose in protecting us and our homes for the future, and how, in turn, we can use technology to conserve mangroves. He also learns about biomimicry, where scientists and engineers look to nature as a mentor – mimicking the solutions found in nature to tackle the myriad of problems human societies face."

Show Me The City: On The Wild Side
"How are technological innovations changing our relationship with nature? For one, it has influenced the way space is designed. Daniel Sid is surprised to see how one of Singapore’s healthiest coral reef systems can be found in a place where boats are docked – at Marina Keppel Bay! He also has a glimpse of how public parks may be run in the future at Jurong Lake Gardens, a “living laboratory” to testbed the latest tech toys and innovations. Lastly, Daniel goes on a biomimicry walk to learn about the wonders of nature’s systems, forms and processes. He then tries to apply what he has learnt to build a flying structure – will it take off or flop?"

Save this Rhino
"Kevin Pietersen (KP) invites Matt Wright to South Africa, to visit the Kruger National Park area, and show him the state of play and understand the world of poaching. Aside from his success in cricket, KP has also been a fierce and passionate member of the global choir singing to save the rhino. It’s Matt’s first time in South Africa, but it’s not the first time he’s had to face the problem of endangered species. They will meet baby Arthur, who lost his mum to poaching alongside many other baby rhinos who suffered the same fate. Angered and emotional at this dire situation, KP and Matt seek answers to why people would do this. It’s an emotional experience, and it cements the need to find solutions fast, and there may be one already. What becomes blatantly obvious is that the problem is challenging and solutions convoluted."

Save this Rhino
"Although the situation is bleak, there is hope. Back at an undisclosed reserve, Matt, KP and Graeme Smith meet another kind of team saving rhinos. From perimeter and ground-based technologies to revolutionary communication and data analysing systems, they are diving into what could be the future of wildlife conservation. Technology seems an obvious solution, but it can’t be the sole strategy, so the team visit a local community who have started a wildlife tourism reserve, which blends employment with the survival of species. It really is a war that is intensifying, and the guys witness the high level of security to protect rhinos against impending incursions at a private game reserve where another baby rhino is roaming freely with his mum. Unfortunately, it’s the exception rather than the rule. Most rhinos struggle to survive. If they survive at all. The clock is ticking, and if these solutions don’t work, they might all be gone by 2025."
