India and Pakistan tensions rise over Kashmir

Available for over a year

The two nuclear powers are at odds after India revoked Jammu and Kashmir's special status. Shashank Joshi, defence editor at The Economist, explains why the region has been contested for decades and from Pakistan, after the foreign Minister called it a "dangerous game," we hear from the Lahore based journalist Mehmal Sarfraz. The trade dispute between Japan and South Korea is hitting sales of cars made by Honda and Toyota. We get an understanding of why Koreans are boycotting Japanese products, from Aidan Foster-Carter, an expert in Korean affairs. Throughout the programme we also get analysis from our two guests, Professor Peter Morici, economist at the University of Maryland and Sushma Ramachandran, former chief business correspondent for The Hindu in New Delhi.
