Discovery Channel will be kicking off 2017 with the premier of Frontier Borneo, a local series production that follows the unsung heroes as they uncover and protect Borneo’s stunning tropical landscape and rich biodiversity.
Frontier Borneo is a breath taking, action-packed journey featuring the lives of remarkable men and women and unforgettable creatures on the third largest island on the planet. Dealing with home-made bombs in the oceans; exploring uncharted jungles; rescuing endangered animals and coming face to face with deadly creatures, it’s all in a day’s work for the colourful characters featured.
This unique cast of local and international wildlife rangers, explorers, scientists and conservationists uncover some of the most spectacular landscapes to be found in Borneo, and gives us an unprecedented glimpse into the realities of this unique world.
From rescue missions, to wrangling deadly creatures across unchartered territories, the action-packed series reveals not only the beauty of the island but also the reality of frontier living.
The series is produced by Beach House Pictures and Kyanite TV with the support of the Info-communications Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Perbadan Kemajuan Filem Nasional Malaysia (FINAS).
Frontier Borneo premieres 28 February, Tuesday @ 9.55pm exclusively on Discovery Channel (Astro Channel 551)
