SINGAPORE : The 14th Asian Television Awards - which recognises excellence in programming, production and performance - took place in Singapore on Thursday night.
And regional broadcaster, MediaCorp bagged wins for Best Editing, Best Drama Series as well as Best Drama Performance by an Actor.
It was a night of glitz and glamour, with the region's TV stars and top studio executives in town to celebrate the best in the industry.
Channel 8's "The Little Nyonya" won the Best Drama Series award, together with Taiwan's Hakka Television Station's production of "1895 in Formosa."
Singapore's Adrian Pang won the Best Drama Performance by an Actor for his role in MediaCorp Channel 5's "Red Thread." Qi Yu Wu from "The Little Nyonya" won a highly commended award in the same category.
Pang had also won the Best Comedy Actor title in 2002 and it seems he can't resist being a funny guy.
"I was playing this blind guy and looking glazed most of the time which didn't require me to have a rape scene or a mental breakdown or have a dramatic death. So, that says something," quipped Pang.
A co-production between MediaCorp, Korea's KBS and Japan's NHK - "Supermen of Malegaon" - won the Best Editing award.
CNBC's Martin Soong won the Best News Presenter/Anchor award while CNN's Kristie Lu Stout grabbed a highly commended award in that category.
