Listen to the latest SBS Hindi news from India. 22/12/2025
In this episode, Jamie Dalzell, Head of GMS Singapore, speaks with Dr. Anand Hiremath, GMS Chief Sustainability Officer and lead of SSORP, the Sustainable Ship and Offshore Recycling Program. In ship recycling, many incidents happen when routine takes over and basic checks are skipped to keep work moving. This conversation focuses on the small actions that prevent harm on the ground: the pause before lighting the torch, a gas check repeated when conditions change, a supervisor choosing not to overlap high risk jobs, and a near miss report that results in a real fix. What SSORP has delivered this year (so far) 781 safety awareness training sessions 12,036 yard workers reached 70 distinct topics delivered across India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan Training provided free for workers Topics discussed in this episode Permit to Work (PTW): planning, authorization, checks, and clear responsibility before high risk work starts Hot work and gas cutting discipline: leak checks, flashback risks, ventilation, fire watch, safe cylinder handling, and stop work authority Confined space awareness: atmospheric hazards, entry controls, communication, and changing conditions Lifting and material handling: rigging basics, exclusion zones, signals, and early warning signs before a load shifts Heat stress and fatigue: hydration routines, shaded rest, symptom recognition, and simple prevention steps Near miss reporting: reporting early, pausing the task, inspecting gear, fixing issues, and sharing learning in toolbox talks Environmental awareness and waste handling: segregation, storage discipline, spill prevention, and daily yard practices Mock drills and emergency readiness: alarms, isolation, muster points, first actions, and clear response roles Key takeaways for different roles For workers: professionalism is in the pause. Ask for checks, report near misses, stop when conditions change For supervisors and mukadams: make work predictable. Plan, brief, coordinate overlaps, and make permits meaningful For owners and management: back the system. Maintain equipment, support reporting without blame, and reinforce discipline consistently This episode is a practical look at training that supports safer work shift by shift across ship recycling yards.

बांग्लादेश. कभी ये नाम सुनकर ऐसा लगता था जैसे कोई ऐसा पड़ोसी है जिसके यहां से आदान प्रदान चलता रहता है. तभी आपके यहां खीर ज़्यादा बनी तो वहां पहुंचा दी, उधर से पराठे ज़्यादा बने तो इधर आ गए. ऐसा नज़दीकी रिश्ता. कारण था बांग्लादेश के बनने में जो सहायता भारत ने की थी. पिछले दो सालों में इसी पड़ोसी ने आंतरिक तौर पर काफ़ी उथल पुथल देखी. बांग्लादेश के राष्ट्रपिता कहे जाने वाले बंगबंधु शेख मुजीबुर्रहमान की मूर्तियां वहीं के लोगों ने गिराई. उनकी बेटी और बांग्लादेश की तत्कालीन प्रधानमंत्री शेख़ हसीना को वहां से तुरंत भागना पड़ा. भारत ने उन्हें अपने यहां शरण भी दी. मगर भारत-बांग्लादेश का ऐसा रिश्ता आखिर बना कैसे? 1971 में हुआ क्या था? ईस्ट पाकिस्तान से बांग्लादेश तक का सफ़र तय करने में ऐसे कौन कौन से पड़ाव थे जिनके बारे में दुनिया को पता ही नहीं है? और जब ये हो रहा था तो दुनिया भर में क्या घट रहा था? इसी सवाल को Address करती है Iqbal Chand Malhotra और Subroto Chattopadhyay की क़िताब Bangladesh: Humiliation, Carnage, Liberation, Chaos. और किताब के दोनों लेखक हैं हमारे मेहमान. मिलेंगे सारे सवालों के जवाब. सुनिएगा पूरा एपिसोड प्रड्यूसर: मानव देव रावत साउंड मिक्स: रोहन भारती

Today, they're one of the largest Christian populations in Indonesia, with over 6 million believers. The transformation happened because someone, a German missionary named Ludwig Nommensen, decided their spiritual poverty was unacceptable. That was 190 years ago. Today, 4,473 people groups are still waiting for their Ludwig Nommensen moment. The People Group Adoption Program launches today, and here's how it works: It meets you where you are. You're not being asked to become a missionary in the field (though if God calls you to that, we'll cheer you on). You're being invited to use your current gifts, prayer, advocacy, networking, research to support those who are already called to go.

The World Nuclear News team looks back over the most read articles in 2025 - with topics including Canada's ground-breaking SMR project, the 50th World Nuclear Symposium, the eventual signing of a contract for the Czech new nuclear project, China's SMR completing cold testing, and the drone damage to Chernobyl's New Safe Confinement.Then World Nuclear Association Director General Sama Bilbao y León picks out the key themes of the year, noting the fast-growing interest from the financial sector in investment opportunities in nuclear, plus the declaration from energy users such as Google, Meta and Dow Chemicals to support the goal of at least tripling nuclear energy capacity by 2050.With a number of projects making progress in countries without recent experience of nuclear construction there has also been a lot of focus on developing supply chains, reflected in the success of the World Nuclear Supply Chain conference held in Poland.Looking ahead to 2026 there are big set-piece events to look forward to - such as World Nuclear Symposium in London, World Nuclear Supply Chain conference in the Philippines and World Nuclear Fuel Cycle conference in Monaco - with big moments also expected for the first units in Bangladesh and Turkey, a restart for Palisades as well as first concrete due to be poured for Hungary's Paks II project.Bilbao y León says the "stars are definitely aligned" for nuclear and the coming year "is the moment where the global nuclear industry really needs to be proactive and active and make the most of this opportunity". She says: "We really need to work together with our governments. We need to work together with the nuclear regulators, with the finance community, with large energy users. And we cannot leave behind civil society. We have seen major improvements in acceptance and interest in nuclear, but we need to continue to be very proactive to engage with civil society, to make sure that no question is left unanswered."Key links to find out more:World Nuclear NewsCanada's first SMR project: How is CAD20.9 billion cost calculated?World Nuclear AssociationEmail newsletter:Sign up to the World Nuclear News daily or weekly news round-upsContact info:alex.hunt@world-nuclear.orgEpisode credit: Presenter Alex Hunt.

The Do One Better! Podcast – Philanthropy, Sustainability and Social Entrepreneurship
Cleft lip and palate is one of the most common congenital conditions worldwide, yet effective care goes far beyond repairing a visible deformity. It requires long-term, multidisciplinary support that addresses speech, hearing, dental development and psychological wellbeing. In this episode, Brian Sommerlad, a surgeon and Chairman of CLEFT, shares four decades of experience in cleft care across the UK and low and middle income countries. Drawing on extensive work in places such as Bangladesh and Nepal, he explains why short-term surgical missions alone are not enough and how well-intentioned philanthropy can sometimes undermine local health systems. The conversation explores what sustainable cleft care really looks like. Brian outlines CLEFT's distinctive approach, which focuses on training local professionals, funding non-surgical roles such as speech therapists and orthodontists, and supporting multidisciplinary teams that can continue delivering care long after external support has stepped back. Key topics include: What cleft lip and palate is, how common it is, and why it affects far more than appearance The lifelong importance of speech therapy, hearing support and dental care The psychological and social impact of cleft conditions on children and families Why teaching and capacity-building create more impact than simply doing operations How poorly designed NGO activity can unintentionally weaken local services The value of treating local clinicians, hospitals and governments as equal partners Practical insights into allocating philanthropic funding for long-term benefit Brian also reflects on his own journey from medical training in Australia to international work spanning Vietnam, Bangladesh, Iraq and beyond, offering candid observations on what has and has not worked in global health over time. This episode is a thoughtful examination of how healthcare philanthropy can move from short-term intervention to lasting change, with lessons that extend well beyond cleft care alone.

In this Week 51 episode, Ingrid and Henning break down the latest ship recycling and demolition market signals across Bangladesh, India (Alang), Pakistan (Gadani), and Turkey (Aliaga). This week delivers a sharp reminder of December volatility: freight markets continue to ease, the U.S. Dollar remains unstable, oil holds at relatively low levels, and local steel plate prices shift across the sub-continent. With the Hong Kong Convention (HKC) now in force, recyclers continue adapting to higher compliance expectations, while owners watch pricing and delivery timing closely heading into year-end. Market overview highlights: Lower supply remains the defining theme, even as fixtures and arrivals begin to surface across sub-continent beaches. Bangladesh sees another price reset as steel plate prices drop quickly and yard capacity remains a key factor. India remains under pressure overall, but the Rupee firms and local plate prices rebound, adding short-term optimism. Pakistan strengthens its position with firmer domestic steel and ongoing HKC momentum, though delivery delays remain a concern. Turkey stays largely sidelined as restrictions and currency weakness keep Aliaga quiet. Indicative recycling levels this week (USD per LDT): Bangladesh: Bulker 410 | Tanker 430 | Container 440 Pakistan: Bulker 400 | Tanker 420 | Container 430 India: Bulker 380 | Tanker 400 | Container 410 Turkey: Bulker 270 | Tanker 280 | Container 290 Also in this episode: GMS is proud to share that our Founder and CEO, Dr. Anil Sharma, has been recognized in the Lloyd's List Top 100 Most Influential People in Shipping for the 16th consecutive year. Under his leadership, GMS has completed more than 5,000 transactions and handles about one-third of global tonnage delivered for recycling each year. If you want the full market context, pricing direction, and port position snapshots, follow GMS for weekly ship recycling intelligence. Season's greetings to you and your families, and thank you for listening.
