Development
The TV series is a collaboration between Astro and the Malaysian Ministry of Education as part of an initiative to improve the pronunciation of English among Malaysians, in line with the ministry's "Upholding Bahasa Malaysia, Strengthening English" or (MBMMBI) policy. Astro worked with the ministry since 2009 to publish world-class learning programs to schools throughout Malaysia through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Kampus Astro. This project has also equipped 10,000 schools in Malaysia with flat-screen television equipment, Astro decoders and 17 education and information channels including History channel, Discovery, National Geographic, Astro Tutor TV, Astro TVIQ and others.[1]
