US Ditches Russia as Preferred Trade Partner
Why Russia is off the US's favoured trading nation list. In Assam muslims are killed for switching their votes in India's elections. And, Guatemala's new anti-drugs initiative.
In Washington, Elizabeth Nolan Brown talks of her work as staff editor of Reason, the magazine of the libertarian think tank of the same name; in Singapore, David Kuo of the financial website, The Motley Fool, talks drugs and pornography. The Interior Minister of Guatemala takes us through his new anti-drugs initiative and Claudette Juska of Greenpeace explains 'greenwash' and why planting a tree does not absolve corporations of their environmental sins. Plus, a buzzing Alice Budisatrijo joins us from a coffee conference in Jakarta, where the locals are developing a taste for their own produce.
