Young people want jobs

from BBC · host BBC

International Labour Organisation reported that joblessness among young people rose globally in 2025. We take a look at the issue of youth unemployment. Elsewhere, President Trump says he'll declare the Strait of Hormuz US territory, as the US threatens to subject Iran to economic isolation. We examine what further sanctions Washington might have in mind. And in Indonesia, the president has hit out at official corruption and vowed greater state intervention in the economy. We take a closer look at the country's economy and investment opportunities.
