I know for a while they had "Who Wants to be a Millionaire ?" in English, hosted by someone known as "The Flying Dutchman" (AKA: Max Von Cluyberg). A well-known Radio DJ in Singapore. (And even had a low-tier question about it and the contestant had to use a lifeline as she never listened to his show, "breaking" FD's heart)
This version is infamous for having players stop with just $300 and $500 (Same prize tree as our classic/current syndie version)
Here is a (no-longer updatd in years) fanpage to the show:
