In This Episode Globetrotter and Host Brett King shares banking news and investment conversations from around the world We start today's podcast on banking with Brett's one on one discussion on tech in Thailand with Dr. Supachai Kid Parchariyanon. Dr. Kid is CEO and Co-Founder of consulting company Rise, and managing partner for SeaX Ventures, a Thai venture capital firm with presence in Silicon Valley. Rise's company goal is to drive 1% of the GDP in Thailand as well as reduce 1% of carbon emissions in all of Southeast Asia. Earlier in his career, Dr. Kid was a key figure responsible for bringing the social media app Twitter (now known as X) to Thailand, it was a technical challenge, and one that had legal barriers as well. Later, he and his team were also able to code software for the Nokia phone, creating in his words a “Robin Hood-like app” for Thailand. He speaks to us today about the Thai tech scene, what's happening in fintech and the VC world, and specifically what's helping drive the Thai economy -- from fintech to health tourism to the Thai lifestyle movement and digital nomad visas, the conversation is wide-ranging as this small country slowly recovers from covid and faces demographic headwinds. With an aging society they are looking to attract new talent and people to the country, collaborate not compete and expand investment in deep tech, AI, agritech, medical, and tourism tech. Then, from the 24 Fintech Conference in Saudi Arabia, Brett introduces us to Saudi Arabia's Barq, making headlines around the region and other parts of the world, as he sits down with its Chief Business Officer, Saad Almuhana. Barq is the newest and fastest growing private wallet and challenger bank in Saudi Arabia, the Middle East and potentially the world, having garnered 1.5M customers in 35 days -- having hit the amazing milestone of 1M customers in 21 days.

Each year millions of Indians go abroad to study and work. A lot of them end up sending money back home, a transfer known as remittances. The money is a crucial source of household income in low and middle-income countries, according to the World Bank. India is the only country to have received more than 100 billion dollars through this route - but it comes at a loss of its human capital. We speak to Indian expats and economists to explore the effect of remittances on the Indian economy.Presenter/ producer: Devina Gupta(Photo: Closeup view of a man counting Indian currency.

Send us a Text Message.If you've been listening to this show since we re-launched in March to focus only on migration, I think, like me, you would have started to see that there is no one type of migration story. Yes, there are two large groups of migrants — people going abroad to work and others going to study. But within those are a vast number of sub-groups, for example, people going to work because they cannot imagine any other way to earn money (and then within that group are the people who walk across the border to India because they can't afford the cost of flying to work in another foreign country). Among those who can afford an air ticket, are Nepalis who can access enough cash only to make it to a Persian Gulf country, not Europe, and so on. I think you get my point. Today's guest, Prakash Gurung, has tried to migrate both to study and to work. And he's certainly not alone in doing that. But from what I understand after our chat, and re-listening as I was editing it this week, he might belong to another sub-group: people who could earn enough money to get by in the capital Kathmandu if they found a job, but who think they could do better working overseas, even if it means doing the same work. When we talked a few months ago at the Himal Media studio in Patan Dhoka, Prakash told me that since he finished ‘plus-2' – what might be called grades 11 and 12 in other countries – he has tried to get a study visa for the US and when that failed, working visas for Croatia and the Netherlands. None of those came through either, and he was working as a driver for the ride-sharing app Pathao when we met. Doing his plus-2, Prakash focused on hospitality so I mentioned the large number of 5-star hotels that are sprouting in Kathmandu. Prakash said he would definitely be willing to work in one of them, but even if he did manage to get a job, he would probably keep seeking an overseas opportunity, because the pay would be better. But then later in our chat he stated that before going abroad, Nepalis should try first to find an opportunity at home. I remember thinking that sounded contradictory, but on second thought it might simply be a reflection of how complicated a migration journey can be. Send us feedback and ideas.

I gotta admit, what I like about this story is the romance element, which is something we haven't heard from other guests so far. What they told us, when we recorded in the ACORAB studio in Chakupat, Patan, was that they were both working in Persian Gulf countries when a colleague suggested that they become Facebook friends. Sunita and Raj then chatted online for three years before finally meeting. You'll have to keep listening to get the full story, but it does include chocolate, flowers and a very large spoon. I'm having fun with this story, but I want to be clear about something—it's not a fairy tale. Yes, Sunita and Raj found one another in what would seem like unusual circumstances to many of us. But there are millions of labour migrants worldwide, so I'm sure that many, many couples come together, like Raj and Sunita, while working abroad. Meanwhile, they experience life as migrant workers — the shock of living in a foreign country, without their language, food  customs, and — especially — family, a family they might not get to see for years. They might face discrimination or mental, physical, and even sexual abuse, and there's a chance that somewhere along the way, someone will try to cheat them out of their hard-earned money. What I'm trying to say is that a migrant worker's life is difficult, one that few people would choose if they had options. But except in the most extreme, harsh circumstances, their lives are multifaceted, like all of ours, and include pain, joy and yes, romance. And I hope this episode reveals a more fully rounded portrait of two migrants' lives.  Send us feedback and ideas.

Once he graduated, Elius took an experimental approach to developing the business model that would eventually become the well known Bangladeshi SuperApp, Pathao. After 6 years building Pathao, Elius changed gears and launched a web3 fintech that enables instant and low-cost global payments. Wind has developed self-custodial crypto wallets that completely eliminate gas fees and are accessible anywhere in the world.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) In this episode of "The Wright Report," Bryan Dean Wright offers a sweeping analysis of significant global and domestic events impacting America and the world. The episode kicks off with a critical look at former President Donald Trump's ongoing criminal trial in New York, emphasizing the controversial and potentially partisan nature of the prosecution. Wright poses a thought experiment to underline the potential biases in the judicial process based on political affiliations. The discussion then shifts to the U.S. southern border, where recent statistics show a decrease in illegal crossings, which the Biden administration attributes to its policies. Wright questions the celebration of these numbers, pointing out the ongoing challenges and implications of border management. Internationally, the episode covers Germany's shift in migration policy due to rising crime rates among migrant populations, linking it to broader European dissatisfaction with open border policies. In Africa's Sahel region, Wright updates on the geopolitical shifts with Russia's increasing influence at the expense of Western presence, highlighting the strategic importance of mineral resources and the complex interplay of local and international forces. The episode also touches on tragic events in Australia, where recent stabbing attacks have reignited debates on knife control and mental health issues. Finally, Wright discusses the role of remittances in supporting economies in Central America and critiques governance in the region as a driver of migration. Throughout the episode, Wright intertwines factual reporting with insightful analysis, offering listeners a deep dive into the complexities of each topic while maintaining a focus on the broader implications for American policy and global stability.
