Mediacorp Singapore Channel 8 has started airing the Hong Kong movie G-Force with dual audio support, allowing viewers to switch between Mandarin and Cantonese. Viewers will need to use their TV remote control to select the alternative audio language, as this option is currently only available on the TV broadcast.
Notably, the dual-language feature is missing from the meWATCH live stream. This development is significant, as Chinese dialects were not allowed in TV dramas and movies on local television for decades under past broadcast language policies. The inclusion of Cantonese audio signals a clear shift in approach towards multilingual content on free-to-air TV.
