Asia Insight

Asia Insight looks at the realities of Asia today. The documentary series, produced by Japan's national public broadcaster NHK, presents the region both as an ever-evolving and globally relevant center of growth and as the home of traditional cultures often at odds with encroaching globalization. Asia Insight investigates these themes, and many others, with in-depth, behind-the-scenes analysis.

    In October 2020, the National Bank of Cambodia became the first central bank in Asia to launch a digital currency.

  • Making Food Waste Useful: The Philippines
    Thursday, December 26
    7:30 pm on UEN-TV 9.1
    The Philippines' growing economy and population have led to a rise in trash, and it has become a serious social issue. Over half of this trash is food waste, and one woman hopes to use it to improve the lives of poor families. Lorilyn Daquioag uses microbes from the forest to break down food waste and produce a liquid solution that makes top-quality organic fertilizer. By distributing this for free to poor neighborhoods, she can track its efficacy on vegetables and flowers. The plan is to grow delicious, healthy vegetables for locals, and eventually produce a surplus to be sold at the market. Follow Lorilyn as she takes on the two-fold challenge of waste and poverty with a single solution.
