Executive Producer, Michael McKay, revealed that this latest installment has a greater tilt towards humour, saying, “Manas and Sahil from India generate the laughs right from the start, Ethan and Khairie from Malaysia are just naturally funny guys; and the Richards from the Philippines have a very dry sense of humour, though Hilda might just steal the opening episode.”

Filmed in June 2010, The Amazing Race Asia 4 flagged off in Kuala Lumpur, marking the series’ first return to Malaysia since the first installment, which flagged off at Dataran Merdeka. As before, a diverse mix of characters were selected to make up for the ten teams participating in this season.

Malaysian teams have traditionally done well in past seasons The Amazing Race Asia series, and the continuity of that tradition rests on the shoulders of the buddy team Ethan Lim & Mohd Khairie and husband & wife team Ivan Evetovics & Tengku Hilda.
