Egypt's economic future

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Today Business Daily reports from Egypt. President Mubarak may have gone but we'll be hearing how waves of strikes and protests are still hampering economic life from returning to normal. The issue now is not fundamental freedoms but pay and conditions. Nevertheless these protests can get violent - as our own correspondent Rob Young discovered. And, how to make money selling vodka to the Russians. Justin Rowlatt speaks to young Russian businessman Roustam Tariko.
