In this scene from Vanguard's "Forest of Ecstasy," correspondent and executive producer Adam Yamaguchi accompanies Cambodian forest rangers on a mission to uncover illegal safrole oil factories in the Cardamom Mountains. Criminals take advantage of this remote rainforest to produce safrole oil, the raw ingredient used to make ecstasy, which is then sold worldwide. Adam comes along on the hunt to find and destroy these hidden camps.

"Vanguard," airing weekly on Current TV Wednesdays at 10/9c, is a no-limits documentary series whose award-winning correspondents put themselves in extraordinary situations to immerse viewers in global issues that have a large social significance. Unlike sound-bite driven reporting, the show's correspondents, Adam Yamaguchi, Kaj Larsen, Christof Putzel and Mariana van Zeller, serve as trusted guides who take viewers on in-depth real life adventures in pursuit of some of the world's most important stories.
