New HBO Asia Original Doc on Drug Trafficking

HBO Asia has lined up the original doc series Traffickers: Inside the Golden Triangle, which exposes the secretive epicenter of Asia’s illicit drug production.

The three-part miniseries premieres exclusively on WarnerMedia’s regional streaming service HBO GO on July 23. It follows the rise and demise of three infamous drug kingpins in Thailand, Myanmar and Laos.

Magdalene Ew, head of content for entertainment at WarnerMedia in India, Southeast Asia and Korea, said: “Three countries. Three drugs. Three traffickers. This ambitious cross-border project is a true crime story that will both excite and inform. This is the first documentary that lifts the lid on drug production inside the Golden Triangle, revealing a secret world of drug traffickers.”
