Kamala Harris’ South East Asia charm tour

Diplomacy, trade and China are top of the vice president's agenda.

While the eyes of the world are on Afghanistan and the US withdrawal, the American vice president is trying to generate some headlines of her own during a charm offensive in South East Asia. We hear what she has been saying and what she hopes to achieve.

Zambia has a new president and he has made some big promises. Can he afford to keep them? And do you feel like time is just running away from you? Or perhaps it has slowed down to an unrelenting crawl? We hear how our brains interpret time - and what we can do to make it work better for us.
