Iraq and India
Jonathan Fryer explores how Baghdad wants to be seen as open for business again; Rahul Tandon explains why English is still seen as the language of success for many in India.
Pascale Harter introduces personal stories and analysis from correspondents around the world. In this edition, Jonathan Fryer recounts a recent visit to Baghdad - and its once-notorious, Saddam-era al-Rasheed Hotel, threadbare and ruined in places, but buffing up its image and still eager for visitors and for foreign trade. Plus, Rahul Tandon wonders why English is still perceived as the language of success across India.
