Six years after the last episode of The Amazing Race Asia Season 4 hit a pulsating stop, the reality TV show is making a comeback, and this time with a twist.
Hosted by Allan Wu, the show’s format will be largely the same, except that The Amazing Race Asia Season 5 will mark the first time a co-host has been cast in the series. Indonesian movie star, Tara Basro joins the reality show to host alongside Allan Wu.
