麻豆约拍

Violence is mounting in South Africa as people protest poverty and unemployment. The unrest was sparked by the jailing of former president Jacob Zuma, but has become more generalised in recent days. Busisiwe Mavuso is chief executive of Business Leadership South Africa, which represents the country's largest employers, and gives us her perspective on recent developments. Also in the programme, property prices in Australia have been rising at their highest levels nationally in 17 years. The 麻豆约拍's Phil Mercer reports on concerns that almost half of Australian households are struggling with their mortgage payments. Plus, as a gin craze in the US and UK shows no sign of abating, the 麻豆约拍's Elizabeth Hotson explores where the next global hotspots will be for the drink.
