How Saudi is my Uber?
A journalist's murder has shocked the world but Saudi money is everywhere.
Big tech firms and Saudi royalty are among the world’s richest people. When a young Saudi prince took power in Riyadh he quickly made friends in Silicon Valley. But then the murder of a US-based journalist threatened to derail his masterplan. We discuss the future of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman and our connection to him through Saudi investments with Dharshini David, economist and BBC presenter and Amira Fathalla from BBC Monitoring.
