The oil drop goes on - we ask how long it can last for, how long before we feel the full effects, and who's responsible. Also, we look at the massive flood prevention construction project that is dividing opinion in Jakarta. Gaming giant Ubisoft has released its latest game, Assassin's Creed: Unity, to much criticism because of the glitches that lead to some characters appearing without faces. We speak to an expert to see how closely this is tied with Ubisoft's recent share price fall. We also talk about FIFA's recent corruption report and the relationship between sport and big money. Finally, Saudi Arabia's government is considering opening cinemas for the first time in decades - we speak to the country's first female film director, Haifaa Al Mansouri, about how realistic its implementation will be, and talk to producer Jonathan Taplin about which films the country should show first. We discuss all this with Simon Littlewood, President at Asia Now consulting group in Singapore, and Alexis Goldstein in New York from The Other 98% - an off-shoot of Occupy Wall Street.
