麻豆约拍

Taliban co-founder Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar has returned to Afghanistan from Qatar, where he has spent months leading negotiations about the US troop withdrawal.

Not much more than 24 hours after the Taliban gained control of Afghanistan's capital Kabul, they held their first press conference. In front of the world's media they claimed they did not want revenge, that the country would not be used as a base for terrorism and that women would enjoy rights according to sharia [Islamic law]. 麻豆约拍's Sana Safi from the Afghan Service gives us her reaction.

We also hear from the head of Afghanistan's central bank Ajmal Ahmady, who fled the capital on Sunday evening as the Taliban took control.

Also in the programme, nearly 6,500 workers at the General Motors plant in Mexico are taking part in a vote that could change the way they bargain over pay, and also affect trade relations with the US. The vote is whether to reject the existing collective bargaining agreement implemented by the Miguel Trujillo Lopez union

Plus, the 麻豆约拍's Jamie Robertson reports on how the music teaching business has not only survived the pandemic, but in some cases has thrived.
