For a contemporary city dweller like Yise Loo, issues about something as distant as the rainforest couldn’t be further from her mind.

As a prolific singer-actress who hosts TV shows (The Special Cuisine, 2010), and acts and sings the theme songs in local Mandarin dramas (The Beat, 2012) and movies (Fantasia, 2014), Loo started on the showbiz path by entering a singing competition at the age of 13 and as such had spent most of her time in recording studios, drama sets, and concert stages.
