In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Robert Midgley, journalist and spokesperson for the Friends of British Overseas Territories, to expose what could be Keir Starmer's greatest political scandal yet — the quiet handover of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius.We unpack how this shocking deal — costing British taxpayers up to £47 billion — effectively gives away sovereign UK territory in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Robert reveals how the Labour government, under pressure from international legal activists like Philippe Sands, has undermined British sovereignty and endangered one of America's most strategic military bases, Diego Garcia.From allegations of corruption and hacked negotiations in Mauritius to the Chinese Communist Party's interest in the region, we examine how Britain's political and legal elite have allowed foreign powers to dictate national policy under the banner of “decolonisation.”We also explore the untold story of the Chagossian people — forcibly removed by the British government in the 1960s, yet still overwhelmingly pro-British today, despite decades of betrayal.All this — the Chagos scandal, the billions in taxpayer money, China's growing influence, and how Starmer's Labour is sleepwalking Britain into surrendering its sovereignty.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall Hosted on Acast.

Wir springen in dieser Folge ins 18. Jahrhundert. Frankreich, das sich nach den Verlusten im Zuge des Siebenjährigen Kriegs wieder global behaupten will, beschließt eine Expedition zur Weltumseglung zu organisieren. Geleitet von Louis-Antoine de Bougainville, soll die Expedition vor allem Pflanzen aus aller Welt sammeln und für Frankreich zu Geld machen. Der Botaniker Philibert de Commerson ist jener Mann, in den die Hoffnungen gesteckt werden, dieses Ziel zu erreichen. Wir sprechen in dieser Folge über diese Expedition, die aber noch eine Überraschung auf Lager hat. Denn eine der mitreisenden Personen hat ein Geheimnis, das erst im Laufe der Weltumseglung gelüftet wird. // Erwähnte Folgen - GAG126: Für immer im Eis – die Franklin Expedition – https://gadg.fm/126 - GAG324: Mit dem Ballon zum Nordpol – Andrées Polarexpedition von 1897 – https://gadg.fm/324 - GAG152: Ernest Shackleton und die Endurance-Expedition – https://gadg.fm/152 - GAG49: Der „Dig Tree“ und die erste Durchquerung Australiens – https://gadg.fm/49 - GAG520: Die Jagd nach dem Großen Panda – https://gadg.fm/520 - GAG322: Portugal und der Seeweg nach Indien – https://gadg.fm/322 - GAG468: Arabia Felix oder Die Dänisch-Arabische Expedition – https://gadg.fm/468 - GAG496: Sophie Germain – https://gadg.fm/496 - GAG139: Als Voltaire die Lotterie knackte und steinreich wurde – https://gadg.fm/139 - GAG279: Muskat und Manhattan – https://gadg.fm/279 // Literatur - Glynis Ridley.

Kate Adie introduces stories from Sudan, France, India, the USA and Mauritius.Sudan's civil conflict has left millions of people displaced and at risk of hunger and famine. In the capital Khartoum, Nawal Al-maghafi witnesses the toll the violence has taken on families, and meets children whose young lives have been forever shaped by the war.France has been reeling this week from the fallout of last weekend's theft of priceless crown jewels from the Louvre in Paris. Andrew Harding has been watching the disbelief and shame that has dented French national pride - but has seen humour too.India has been making textiles and clothing for the world for centuries – but its goods are now less competitive for American buyers, due to Donald Trump's heavy tariffs. In the run-up to the recent Diwali festivities, Archana Shukla saw how shoppers are feeling the pinch.Drugs like fentanyl have killed hundreds of thousands of Americans in recent years, and in the city of Las Vegas, a particularly vulnerable substance-using population are the homeless people who live in the city's underground tunnels. Linda Pressly joined a local charity as they ventured underground, with the offer of help.And finally, we head to Mauritius to tell the story of a daring rescue mission to save some rare resident geckos from the effects of a giant oil spill.

Die Diagnose Demenz lässt das Leben stillstehen, nichts ist mehr, wie es war. «Junge» Betroffene unter 65 trifft es besonders hart: Sie stehen noch mitten im Leben, sind berufstätig, haben Kinder. «Puls» zeigt Menschen, die sich ihrem Schicksal nicht einfach ergeben wollen. Warnzeichen von Demenz Im Keller stehen und nicht mehr wissen, weshalb. Den Schlüsselbund schon wieder verlegt. Und überhaupt: unkonzentriert, erschöpft, verstimmt, deprimiert. Situationen und Stimmungslagen, die vorkommen können und meist einfach vorübergehen. Oder steckt doch mehr dahinter? «Puls» zeigt, wann es ernst wird, wo die Grenze zur Demenz liegt und welche Warnzeichen ernst zu nehmen sind. Leben mit und trotz der Diagnose Susanne, 55, war wegen Burnout in psychiatrischer Behandlung und wurde mit der niederschmetternden Diagnose «Demenz» entlassen. Die Diagnose trifft die selbstständige Coachin mitten im Leben. Sie will sich davon aber nicht unterkriegen lassen und mit ihrem Partner ein gutes Leben führen, solange es geht. Reisen nach Mauritius und Südafrika sind noch auf der Bucket List, Delfinschwimmen in den USA bereits abgehakt. Hoffnungsträger Lecanemab Susanne ist aussergewöhnlich aktiv: täglich Fitness, Boxen, Dancing, Yoga. Sie lernt Golf und Logopädie, schreibt ein Buch. Lauter Aktivitäten, die Körper und Hirn trainieren und so den Verlauf ihrer Demenz verlangsamen sollen. Wissenschaftlich belegt ist der Effekt jedoch nicht. Anders beim Medikament Lecanemab, das seit kurzem in der EU zugelassen ist. Susanne zählt zum kleinen Teil der Demenzbetroffenen, die für eine Behandlung grundsätzlich in Frage kommt. Nun soll eine genetische Abklärung Gewissheit schaffen. Fehlende Strukturen in der Schweiz In einem Altersheim mit anderen Demenzbetroffenen leben, die teils 30 Jahre älter sind: Realität für den 58-jährigen Ali, der wie viele Demente einen enormen Bewegungsdrang hat. Das bringt Unruhe ins Heim und das Pflegepersonal an seine Grenzen. Für Entlastung sorgen Angehörige und Freunde, die Ali mehrmals pro Woche aus dem Altersheim holen und mit ihm spazieren und joggen gehen. Kein Einzelfall, denn in der Schweiz fehlt es an Einrichtungen, die auf junge Demente ausgerichtet sind. «Puls»-Chat – Fragen und Antworten zum Thema Demenz Möchten Sie mehr wissen zum Umgang mit dementen Menschen? Sind Sie verunsichert, ob ihre zunehmende Vergesslichkeit erste Anzeichen einer Demenz sein könnte? Die Fachrunde weiss am Montag von 21.00 bis 23.00 Uhr Rat – live im Chat. Fragen können vorab eingereicht werden.

Pozval jsem si do ní Matese Jora, kterého si možná pamatujete z epizody č. 45, kde byl spolu se Zdendou Hruškou a povídali jsme si (nejen) o vítězství na etapáku PSR. Tentokrát jsme se ale vydali víc do cestovatelských vod.Mates se v roce 2024 společně se svou dnes už manželkou Vendy vydal na ostrov Mauricius, kde se zúčastnil trailového závodu ze série UTMB. Jenže z jejich výpravy se nakonec stalo mnohem víc než jen závodní dobrodružství.Mates v našem rozhovoru popisuje nejen samotný závod v tropických podmínkách, ale i zážitky z cestování po ostrově.Díky setkáním s místními běžci objevili skryté traily a místa, kam se běžný turista nepodívá. Dojde i na pár praktických cestovatelských tipů, kdybyste se na Mauricius někdy chtěli vydat za během nebo dobrodružstvím.Tohle cestovatelské povídání vychází z fotek, ale nebojte – i když posloucháte jen audio, snažili jsme se všechno popsat tak, abyste si to dokázali představit. A vznikla z toho dobrodružná, vtipná a inspirativní epizoda z UTMB v tropech.Pokud vás zajímají i samotné fotky z UTMB Mauritius a z cest po ostrově, najdete je ve verzi na YouTube.Podcast MAKEJ VOLE! také podporují:Runsport.cz - Experti na kopceZa podporu děkuju hodným lidičkám z běžecké speciálky Runsport.cz, kteří mě zásobují nejen hadříkama a botkama na běhání a lyže, ale taky mi půjčují prostor pro natočení podcastu.

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we catch up with Kiran Verma, a passionate pro wing foiler and content creator from Australia's Sunshine Coast. Joining Luc from across the globe, Kiran shares his inspiring journey into the sport at age 37, his recent switch to North gear, and the highs of pushing limits in a rapidly evolving industry. From mastering foil slides to dissecting his favorite setups, Kiran offers an honest look at what it takes to progress, the joy of community connections, and the transformative power of foiling at any age.Journey into Foiling: Kiran reflects on starting wing foiling later in life, now at 41, and how it changed everything—from traveling to places like Cape Verde, Fiji, Mauritius, Brazil, and Chile, to embracing rejection and training harder. He emphasizes the mental freedom of pursuing passion without caring about judgments, and how foiling has brought happiness despite life's demands.Switching to North Gear: Kiran details his transition to North after positive experiences with their foils, highlighting the SF-530 for tight turns and the SF-680 for versatile light-wind performance. He praises the brand's receptiveness, community support (like backing Max Robinson and We Can Foil), and gear like the 55L Swell board, while sharing how video analysis helped refine his riding.Gear Breakdown and Tips: Diving into his go-to setup—a 680 front wing, 145 stabilizer, 60cm fuse, and 85cm mast—Kiran explains why he sticks to minimal changes for consistency. He discusses foil slides inspired by riders like Cash Berzolla, the appeal of short boards for prone foiling, and why foiling appeals to the 40-70 age group with its technical, accessible nature.Community and Growth: The duo explores the sport's potential to go mainstream, comparing it to golf for its niche appeal and inclusivity. Kiran stresses the need for more entry-level programs to grow foiling beyond the elite, the role of small brands in innovation, and how sessions clear the mind like nothing else.Future Plans: Kiran teases upcoming trips, possibly to Morocco for right-handers or Cape Town for King of the Air, plus content on learning new tricks like one-hand grabs. He hints at deeper involvement with North's R&D and a desire to see foiling explode in popularity.Follow Kiran - https://www.instagram.com/kv_foil/
Every year, Alfonso, the artistic director of Mostra, hides a few cards up his sleeve, and this time one of them was DjSport. Closing the Friday program at Fabra i Coats is never random, it's a statement, and by the time her halftime pulse began rolling through the space, we all knew why she was there. The groove was elastic, full of tension that never broke until she decided it should. Then came the shift: precision turning into pressure, tempo climbing until Fabra felt like a steam room. Just when it seemed ready to tip into chaos, she had her “hold my beer” moment, controlled detonation, a sudden swerve into broken, bass-heavy terrain that felt like opening a window mid-storm. From there on, it was cruise control, the kind that hums with energy yet never loses composure. Mauritius-born and now based in Barcelona, DjSport carries that balance of warmth and unpredictability wherever she plays. Her debut at Mostra was the kind that makes you trust Alfonso's instincts even more, those mysterious names on the poster that end up defining the memory. https://soundcloud.com/djsportt https://www.instagram.com/djsport__/ www.mostra.barcelona www.instagram.com/mostrabcn/ @mostrabcn Write up by @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media: @itsdelayed linktr.ee/delayed www.delayed.nyc www.facebook.com/itsdelayed www.instagram.com/_____delayed www.youtube.com/@_____delayed Contact us :info@delayed.nyc
Ever wonder what happens when your mother-in-law decides to book the same honeymoon destination as you? Darren "Wackhead" Simpson delivers another masterful prank call that explores this nightmare scenario. A soon-to-be-married couple discovers their future mother-in-law has booked a trip to Mauritius during their honeymoon, claiming she'll stay "on the bottom end of the island" while they're "on the top." The tension escalates quickly as the prankster, posing as an Air Mauritius employee, attempts to change flight dates, revealing family dynamics that are both cringe-worthy and hilariously relatable.

Get ready for a vibrant dose of morning energy as Darren, Sherlin, and Sibs bring the Western Cape to life with their infectious banter. This episode captures the essence of a perfect Tuesday in Cape Town, where the hosts debate everything from Christmas decorations in October to nostalgic currency memories while keeping listeners entertained with games, prizes, and plenty of laughs. The trio takes us through their morning with seamless chemistry, discussing the premature excitement for Christmas (with Darren promising to hold off until November), Sherlin's impressive multi-tree holiday decorating plans, and a fascinating dive into South Africa's currency history. Remember those one rand notes that have now become collectors' items? The conversation brings a wave of nostalgia that resonates with long-time Cape Town residents. Between the friendly banter, the show delivers substantial entertainment value with their 20K Pop Quiz (congratulations to Sister Bettina who walked away with the full prize!), hygiene debates that had listeners messaging in droves, and a hilarious prank call involving a mother-in-law planning to crash her son-in-law's honeymoon in Mauritius. The episode wraps with a musical showdown between the hosts that ends in a perfect tie. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
pWotD Episode 3093: Diwali Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 407,031 views on Monday, 20 October 2025 our article of the day is Diwali.Dipavali (IAST: Dīpāvalī), commonly known as Diwali (English: ), is the Hindu festival of lights, with variations celebrated in other Indian religions such as Jainism and Sikhism. It symbolises the spiritual victory of Dharma over Adharma, light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. Diwali is celebrated during the Hindu lunisolar months of Ashvin (according to the amanta tradition) and Kārtika – between around mid-September and mid-November. The celebrations generally last five or six days.Diwali is connected to various religious events, deities and personalities, such as being the day Rama returned to his kingdom in Ayodhya with his wife Sita and his brother Lakshmana after defeating the demon king Ravana. It is also widely associated with Lakshmi, the goddess of prosperity, and Ganesha, the god of wisdom and the remover of obstacles. Other regional traditions connect the holiday to Vishnu, Krishna, Durga, Shiva, Kali, Hanuman, Kubera, Yama, Yami, Dhanvantari, or Vishvakarman.Primarily a Hindu festival, variations of Diwali are also celebrated by adherents of other faiths. The Jains observe their own Diwali which marks the final liberation of Mahavira. The Sikhs celebrate Bandi Chhor Divas to mark the release of Guru Hargobind from a Mughal prison. Newar Buddhists, unlike other Buddhists, celebrate Diwali by worshipping Lakshmi, while the Hindus of Eastern India and Bangladesh generally, celebrate Diwali by worshipping the goddess Kali.During the festival, the celebrants illuminate their homes, temples and workspaces with diyas (oil lamps), candles and lanterns. Hindus, in particular, have a ritual oil bath at dawn on each day of the festival. Diwali is also marked with fireworks as well as the decoration of floors with rangoli designs and other parts of the house with jhalars. Food is a major focus with families partaking in feasts and sharing mithai. The festival is an annual homecoming and bonding period not only for families, but also for communities and associations, particularly those in urban areas, which will organise activities, events, and gatherings. Many towns organise community parades and fairs with parades or music and dance performances in parks. Some Hindus, Jains, and Sikhs will send Diwali greeting cards to family near and far during the festive season, occasionally with boxes of Indian confectionery. Another aspect of the festival is remembering the ancestors.Diwali is also a major cultural event for the Hindu, Sikh, and Jain diaspora. The main day of the festival of Diwali (the day of Lakshmi Puja) is an official holiday in Fiji, Guyana, India, Malaysia, Mauritius, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago, and is symbolically recognized by some US state governments.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 03:24 UTC on Tuesday, 21 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Diwali on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Brian.
As the Chagos Islands deal returns to the Commons, the Standard's Chief Political Correspondent, Rachael Burford, joins us to explain how the influx of islanders from the remote archipelago has left Hillingdon council in crisis. The Chagos Islands have been the subject of a long-running legal dispute between the UK and Mauritius. This week's special report explains how in 2022, those born on Chagos and their children were offered full British citizenship, as a small gesture towards acknowledging historical wrongs. But with more families expected to arrive in the capital, the financial strain is forcing difficult choices. And in part two, The Standard's Chief Restaurant Critic and Going Out Editor David Ellis is here to reveal this week's Hidden London destination - the cigar merchant JJ Fox, which for more than 240 years has drawn the great and the good, from Winston Churchill to Oscar Wilde.

4. The Dodo: Icon of Extinction and Conservation Inspiration AUTHOR: Stephen Moss BOOK TITLE: 10 Birds That Changed the World This section focuses on the Dodo, which became the icon of extinction. It went extinct on Mauritius within about 80 years after European sailors arrived (c. 1597), introducing ground predators (dogs, rats, cats, monkeys) that ate the flightless bird's eggs and chicks. Since the idea of extinction was incomprehensible to 17th-century society, few specimens were preserved. The dodo's fate has since inspired conservation successes, such as Carl Jones saving the Mauritius Kestreland Pink Pigeon using methods like double clutching.
Africa's financial services sector is undergoing a rapid transformation, driven by FinTech innovations that are reshaping how individuals and businesses access and use financial services. Accelerated smartphone penetration, wider internet access, and the need to overcome limited traditional banking infrastructure are fuelling growth and attracting significant investment across payments, digital assets, tokenisation and RegTech, amongst others.Positioned at the strategic crossroads of Africa and Asia, Mauritius offers a well-regulated, transparent, and investor-friendly International Financial Centre (IFC) with a progressive regulatory framework, including the Regulatory Sandbox Licence, the Payment Intermediary Services Licence, and the Virtual Asset and Initial Token Offering Services (VAITOS) Licence.

"I go to the Girmitiya countries, like the Caribbean, South Africa, Mauritius, Fiji, at the same time, countries which are liberal democracies and western democracies and so on. I also visit Africa, but wherever I go, the educated professionals have all read and have been impacted by Rajiv ji's writings.

Privilèges de voyage supprimés : Air Mauritius convoquée ce vendredi 10 octobre devant la National Human Rights Commission by TOPFM MAURITIUS
Academic Perspectives on Environmental Information Access in Africa In recognition of the 2025 International Day for Universal Access to Information, the Centre for Human Rights, Faculty of Law, University of Pretoria, presents a thought-provoking podcast episode exploring the theme ‘Ensuring Access to Environmental Information in the Digital Age.' The episode is hosted by Belinda Matore and features insights from Lassané Ouedraogo and Marie Valerie Uppiah, distinguished academics engaged in the intersection of environmental governance, human rights, and sustainable development in Africa. The discussion examines barriers to and opportunities for enhancing access to environmental information across Africa. Lassané Ouedraogo, a PhD researcher and environmental law specialist, highlights that access to environmental information is not confined to ecological concerns alone. Rather, it is integrally connected to the protection and realisation of fundamental human rights, including the right to life. He highlights the significance of transparency and accuracy in the dissemination of environmental information to ensure that communities are adequately informed and empowered. Echoing this view, Marie Valerie Uppiah, an expert in international trade law, law of the sea, and ocean governance, emphasises the multifaceted nature of environmental information. She illustrates how its accessibility is intrinsically linked to a broad spectrum of rights, including the rights to health, water and sanitation, and socio-economic development. She references the landmark case SERAC v Nigeria, and illustrates how legal precedents have established the essential role that environmental information plays in holding states accountable and advancing environmental justice. Uppiah also discusses the role of Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) as essential tools for informing communities about the ecological implications of infrastructure projects. She cites the innovative example of MoNatir (“My Nature”), a digital platform developed in Mauritius that provides real-time information on key environmental indicators such as air quality, beach conditions, and waste management. She describes the platform as a “revolutionary” tool in facilitating public engagement and environmental awareness. In concluding the discussion, Ouedraogo reiterates the role of communities as active agents in environmental governance. He calls for a culture of civic curiosity and public vigilance, urging communities to take initiative in seeking out information related to their environments and government-led development projects. Speaker Biographies Lassané Ouedraogo is the Acting Coordinator of the LLM in International Trade and Investment Law in Africa at the Centre for Human Rights, University of Pretoria. Marie Valerie Uppiah is a Senior lecturer in International Trade Law and Law of the Sea & Ocean Governance at the University of Mauritius.
NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX:NEXT, OTCQB:NSRCF) President and CEO Hanré Rossouw talked with Proactive about the company's technical and economic study for its active anode material project in Abu Dhabi. Rossouw said the development marks a “pivotal moment” for NextSource as it positions itself as one of the largest non-Chinese producers of battery anode material for electric vehicles and grid-scale storage. He explained that the project is underpinned by an offtake agreement with Mitsubishi, with a total capital cost of US $291 million, including US $150 million for the first phase. The study showed an IRR of 24% and a payback period of 4.6 years, resulting in a net present value above US $400 million. Rossouw highlighted that Abu Dhabi's industrial zone offered cost advantages, rapid time-to-market, and an existing ecosystem of reagent suppliers and low-cost power. He added that NextSource aims to complete financing with support from Société Générale and potential local partners, combining debt and equity at both asset and group levels. The CEO said the company is progressing toward a final investment decision, with half of the required equipment already ordered and stored in Mauritius and China. The project forms part of NextSource's broader strategy to build vertically integrated anode capacity outside Asia, supported by graphite from its Molo mine in Madagascar.

Episode SummaryIn this sparkling episode of Hospitality Meets, I sit down with the unstoppable Michelle Moreno, founder of QAB Leadership (Is that really it's name Michelle?)From accidentally elbowing Leonardo DiCaprio to fangirling over Sarah Jessica Parker in the dark, Michelle's journey through hospitality is as wild, funny, and inspiring as it gets.With a career that's taken her from London's hottest openings to Mykonos, India, and Mauritius, Michelle's story is one of resilience, humour, and never taking herself too seriously. Along the way, she's learned that imperfection is a superpower, leadership should be fun, and sometimes the best brand names are the ones people trip over.Expect celebrity encounters, cultural adventures, brutal honesty, and some cracking wisdom on careers, confidence, and carving your own path.Key TakeawaysImperfection = Strength – You don't have to be polished to be powerful.Hospitality is Chaos & Magic – From elbowing Leo to opening 50+ restaurants, it's never dull.Leadership with Laughter – Fun belongs in business; we're a long time dead, so lighten up.Follow the Adventure – Careers aren't linear; they zigzag through countries, cultures, and crises.Community is Everything – LinkedIn, kindness, and connection can change your career trajectory.Memorable Quotes"When you say QAB quickly, it sounds like Crap Leadership. But hey, people remember it”"I elbowed Leonardo DiCaprio in the stomach. Not on purpose… just because I was shit”“Life isn't about change, it's about evolution”“We're a long time dead, so let's make leadership fun”“I met Sarah Jessica Parker… and made a tit of myself in front of Matthew Broderick two nights in a row”Final ThoughtsMichelle's story is a glorious reminder that success isn't about straight lines or spotless CVs, it's about saying yes, laughing at the chaos, and evolving along the way. From Nobu in Mykonos to “crap leadership” in London, her career proves that hospitality is a serious industry where fun, imperfection, and humanity always win.Show PartnersA big shout out to Today's show partner, RotaCloud, the people management platform for shift-based teams.RotaCloud lets managers create and share rotas, record attendance, and manage annual leave in minutes — all from a single, web-based app.It makes work simple for your team, too, allowing them to check their rotas, request holiday, and even pick up extra shifts straight from their phones.Try RotaCloud's time-saving tools today by heading to https://rotacloud.com/philThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

Africa was especially hard hit by Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs, which ended years of duty-free access to the U.S. and triggered a rush to find new markets. China's announcement that it will remove all tariffs on African imports undoubtedly provides some relief, but it shouldn't be the only answer, say experts. India, Southeast Asia, and Japan all offer tremendous opportunities for African exporters, if they know how to break into these markets. Géraud traveled from Mauritius to Singapore to join a conversation at the Centre for African Studies at Nanyang Technological University, where he was joined by the center's director Amit Jain and Veda Vaidyanathan, a fellow at the Centre for Social and Economic Progress in New Delhi, for a lively conversation on the future of Africa-Asia relations beyond China.

In the Public Interest is excited to continue In That Case, its third annual miniseries examining notable decisions recently issued by the US Supreme Court. In this episode, guest host Daniel Volchok, the Vice Chair of WilmerHale's Appellate and Supreme Court Litigation Practice, speaks with Dave Bowker, the Partner-in-Charge of the Washington DC office and chair of the International Litigation practice, about CC/Devas (Mauritius) Ltd. v. Antrix Corp. Ltd., a unique case involving questions surrounding the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA) and the ability of U.S. courts to exercise personal jurisdiction over foreign states. Bowker outlines each step of the case, describing its beginnings as a contract dispute in India and its journey to the Supreme Court. Volchok and Bowker further discuss the Court's unanimous 9-0 reversal of the Ninth Circuit's decision, certifying that the FSIA does not require proof of minimum contacts and jurisdiction can be effectively established through exception to immunity and service of process.

//The Wire//2300Z August 18, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: CARGO VESSEL EXPLODES NEAR BALTIMORE HARBOR. ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CHARGED FOR FLORIDA TRAFFIC ACCIDENT THAT KILLED THREE. DIPLOMATIC EFFORTS CONTINUE REGARDING UKRAINE WAR PEACE DEAL.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Global: This afternoon Starlink experienced another global outage, with services being down for all users around the world for about 15 minutes. This marks the second time this month that a major outage of the Starlink system has been reported. No cause for the outage has been provided.-HomeFront-Maryland: This afternoon a large explosion was reported onboard a cargo vessel that was transiting outbound from Baltimore, bound for Mauritius. The M/V *W SAPPHIRE* experienced an explosion in one of her forward cargo holds shortly after leaving port. Her current position remains east of Bodkin Creek, and multiple tugboats and firefighting vessels remain on scene to keep her under control.Analyst Comment: As this is a developing situation, there's no further information on what caused the blast, or the fate of the crew.Washington D.C. - This afternoon President Zelenskyy returned to the White House, continuing diplomatic efforts to achieve peace in Ukraine.Analyst Comment: Regarding the potential for peace, the situation remains tenuous. Following the negotiations with Putin on Friday, Russia's position appears to be largely the same as when the war started; Russia wants the Donetsk and also the "freezing" of front lines where they are right now on all fronts. Ukraine's position is equally hardline, with Zelenskyy also reiterating Ukraine's position of ceding zero terrain in any prospective peace deal.Utah: A shooting was reported at a residence in Tremonton yesterday evening, which resulted in two police officers being killed, and one other wounded. Officers initially responded to this address due to multiple 911 hangups, and upon arrival, a barricaded shooter engaged them from within the house.Analyst Comment: What led to this shooting is unclear, but 911 hangups are frequently utilized by individuals seeking to take their own life by the actions of the police, or by those seeking to ambush authorities. In this case, the latter seems to have been the result, which turned into a protracted small arms engagement. Multiple pre-made incendiary devices were recovered from the residence after the shooting, indicating that this was a planned ambush of some kind.Florida: Vehicular homicide charges have been filed against Harjinder Singh for his role in the death of three people on the Florida Turnpike last week. Singh was attempting to conduct an illegal u-turn on the interstate, which resulted in him positioning his semi truck completely perpendicular to the road, completely blocking all lanes of traffic. Three people traveling in a minivan were unable to stop in time, colliding with the semi's trailer, resulting in their deaths.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comment: The case involving the crash in Florida has gained nationwide notoriety for two main reasons. Firstly, the in-cabin video showing the crash was published immediately, which not only shows the exceptionally graphic nature of the crash, but also the lack of any sort of remorse from the driver after the crash. The social reaction to this video has resulted in more focus on this case, which leads to the second reason for the attention...this case gets worse the more one digs for details.After the accident, Singh was revealed to have been an illegal immigrant from India, who crossed over the southern US border in 2018. Singh was allowed to get a driver's license in California (as this state allows illegals to get a license through the AB 60 program). From there, he was able to get his CDL license in the same state, despite federal law banning illegals f

Today's guest is one of Britain's best-loved and most fearless voices in wildlife and environmental broadcasting - it's the brilliant Chris Packham.Chris first made his name back in the 1980s as a presenter on The Really Wild Show, a programme that inspired a whole generation of children - myself included - to get out into nature. But before that, he was actually behind the camera, working as a wildlife cameraman after studying zoology. And it's that deep understanding of animals, ecosystems and science that still underpins everything he does.Since those early days, Chris has become a fixture on British television. You'll know him from Springwatch, Autumnwatch, and Winterwatch, from his BBC documentaries like The Walk That Made Me and Inside Our Autistic Minds, and from his powerful activism, whether he's leading anti-hunting campaigns, protesting HS2, or calling out the destruction of biodiversity in the UK and beyond.He's won multiple awards for his environmental work and was awarded a CBE for services to nature conservation. But he's also never been afraid to challenge the establishment, and I think that's one of the reasons so many people connect with him. In today's episode, we explore the places that have shaped him, from Kathmandhu to Kashmir, Mauritius to Marrakech. He talks about the awe and purpose he finds in travel, the power of experiencing landscapes that tell stories - whether it's battle sites like Little Bighorn in Montana or the brutalist war memorials of the Balkans - and the importance of discomfort, of being challenged by a place.We talk about being neurodivergent and how that shapes the way he sees the world when he travels - and also the places he'll never return to. Spoiler: it's not a great day for Dubai or Vegas.Destination Recap:White Sands National Park, New Mexico, USABig Bend National Park, Texas, USAEverglades National Park, Florida, USAZion National Park, Utah, USANew Forest National Park, Hampshire, England HondurasBorneoScotlandArles, France MauritiusSeville, SpainKathmandu, Nepal Kashmir, IndiaAntarcticaGalapagos, EcuadorMarrakech, Morocco Bar of sand nr Sanibel Island, Florida, USALittle Big Horn, Montana, USADubaiLas Vegas, USAPhilippines RainforestThe ‘Stans - Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan Finding the Spomeniks With thanks to Airbnb for their support of today's episode.Thanks so much for listening today.

What if the reason you're not raising more money... isn't your fundraising strategy?Kevin L. Brown believes most nonprofits are stuck in the wrong cycle—constantly doing more fundraising, instead of fixing their fundability and visibility. In this episode, the Mighty Ally CEO and author of Fundable & Findable shares a brand-first, strategy-driven approach to nonprofit growth that challenges everything you've been told about development. He writes daily on LinkedIn and Substack and just released his first book: Fundable & Findable: The Brand-New Way to Fix Your Nonprofit Fundraising. Three daughters from Uganda and China fuel his work to end poverty and injustice.We explore why only 1 in 1,000 nonprofits ever scale, what makes a nonprofit actually attractive to funders, and how branding, positioning, and clarity of purpose aren't luxuries—they're prerequisites for serious funding.Topics We Cover:Why more fundraising isn't the solutionThe Fundable/Findable Framework: what it is and how it worksThe nonprofit brand gap—and how to fix itWhat funders are really looking forLessons from building nonprofits across four continentsPractical steps to get fundable and findable, even on a small budgetAbout Kevin Brown:Kevin L.

Mighty Ally delivers its Fundable/Findable Framework through consulting, training, and field building. Including theory of change, strategic plan, positioning strategy, and marketing communications.Kevin's roots are in the advertising agency world. Then a passion for the orphan crisis led to living in Uganda, followed by South Africa, Mauritius, and Malaysia.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to the island nation of Mauritius to discuss the case of Zaliya Shamigulova, a beautiful young Russian woman who was slowly traveling around the world with her companion and roommate, Elena. However, once Zaliya landed on the island, she began to mingle with some of the locals. This included an IT engineer named Puryavirsingh Sundur.

Today's episode delivers rapid-fire coverage of the top global and domestic developments shaping America and the world. FBI Monitors Iranian Sleeper Cells as War with Israel Escalates The FBI increases surveillance of suspected Hezbollah operatives inside the U.S., fearing possible terror plots as Israel continues strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The false report of a hit on Iran's Bushehr plant sparked regional panic, though other key nuclear sites have been damaged. Israel Eyes Fordow Strike as U.S. Prepares Stealth Bomber Option Israeli commandos may attempt a daring assault on the heavily fortified Fordow nuclear facility. Meanwhile, the U.S. considers launching B-2 stealth bombers from Diego Garcia. The base's new lease with China-friendly Mauritius complicates disclosure requirements, raising diplomatic concerns. Peace Talks Stall as Trump Warns Iran and Public Opinion Backs Action Trump's updated peace offer was rejected by Iran. Polling shows 75% of Americans support preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, even if force is necessary. However, some polls show less support for direct U.S. involvement. Trump Withdraws More U.S. Troops from Syria American forces are being consolidated to a single base, with local allies stepping in to fill the gap. The reduction reflects Trump's goal of letting regional players secure their own territory. Panama Sides with China on Canal Ports A Chinese state-owned consortium will take over port operations on both ends of the Panama Canal, rejecting a U.S.-backed bid. The White House is expected to respond next week to this strategic setback. Trump Extends TikTok Sale Deadline in Violation of Law Despite a congressional mandate, Trump grants another 90-day extension for ByteDance to sell TikTok. Legal challenges are expected, though both parties are hesitant to anger young voters. Democrat Governors Cut Off Healthcare for Illegal Immigrants Budget overruns in California, Illinois, and Minnesota are forcing Democrat leaders to scale back health coverage for undocumented migrants. The cuts reveal higher-than-expected migrant numbers and usage, raising questions about official immigration estimates. Portland Decline Mirrors Leftist Unrest Antifa violence continues in Portland, with attacks on ICE facilities and widespread downtown decay. Court documents cite homeless encampments and drug use inside landmark buildings like the U.S. Bancorp Tower, now for sale at an 80% loss. Poll: Democrats Losing Christian Voters Nationwide A new poll shows Christians across denominations overwhelmingly reject the Democratic Party. While Black Christians remain a core base, overall trust is eroding fast, especially in light of cultural and moral concerns. Trade War Hits Canada, Spares Mexico U.S.-Canada trade fell by 10.5% in May, while Mexico saw only a 2.8% drop. Analysts point to Mexico's more diplomatic tone with Trump compared to Canada's confrontational approach. New U.S. Battery Could End Dependence on China A Boston firm, Pure Lithium, is developing a battery that avoids Chinese-dominated minerals and uses lithium from Arkansas. The company could receive $300 million in federal backing to scale production.
