Protectionism Alleged in US Laptop Flight Ban

We ask if the ban is designed to protect US business interests as much as travellers. Brian Kelly runs a New York based travel website called The Points Guy, and offers us his perspective. Also in the programme, Ghana's new government has promised to build a factory in every district to revive the economy. Israel Laryea, news editor at Multimedia Broadcasting in Accra, tells us if the plan is likely to work. Plus, on World Water Day, we hear from David Smith of consultancy firm MWH about the part business can play in bringing fresh water supplies to a thirsty planet.
