麻豆约拍

The US state of Georgia is going to the polls for a second-round vote and at stake is whether President-elect Joe Biden's Democrats control the Senate. In an extended report, the 麻豆约拍's Fergus Nicoll looks at the forces in play behind the electioneering. Also in the programme, the World Bank has said that any recovery in the global economy is dependent on the roll out of successful vaccines and has predicted 4% growth in the coming year - we hear from the 麻豆约拍's Andrew Walker. Plus, Singapore has confirmed its law enforcers will be able to access the country's coronavirus contact tracing data to help criminal investigations. And in Russia women are driving the metro trains - after a 40 year ban - although there's still a list of jobs women are not advised to do; we hear from Olga Ivshina from the 麻豆约拍's Russian Service. Plus, this summer, festival goers around the world stayed at home due to coronavirus restrictions so what will happen this year? We hear from Chief Executive of UK Music, Jamie Njoku-Goodwin, who's been giving evidence to members of the British Parliament on the state of the music industry. And we're joined throughout the programme by two guests on opposite sides of the world; Erin Delmore, political correspondent in New York and Robin Harding, the Financial Times' correspondent in Tokyo.
