Podcast: Pick of the Commonwealth

Web Radio
Pick of the Commonwealth - Our monthly podcast

'Pick of the Commonwealth' is a 30-minute monthly radio programme funded by the Commonwealth Secretariat and produced for the Commonwealth Broadcasting Association (CBA).

The views expressed in these programmes and interviews are not necessarily those of the Commonwealth Secretariat.

January 2009

This month: there's a massive turnout for elections in Bangladesh, after a year's delay.

Also in the programme: a New Zealand journalist arrested and deported in Fiji; the Commonwealth celebrates 60 years of the UN's human human rights charter (but is there much to celebrate?); a new party is born in South Africa; and why does underpopulated Seychelles need to build a town in the sea?
