The European Union and Japan have struck a free trade deal to slash tariffs. Martin Schulz is an economist at the Fujitsu Research Institute in Tokyo and assesses the economic boost that the deal could bring. Also in the programme, as world leaders gather for the G-20 in Hamburg, Germany, the writer and activist George Monbiot considers Donald Trump's question today asking whether the West has the will to survive. The 大象传媒's Manuela Saragosa reports from Sicily, where more than 85,000 refugees and other migrants have made a perilous sea journey from Africa so far this year. We hear from the guitar-making capital of the Philippines, which is under pressure from the changing way of life. Plus, on the first anniversary of the global launch of the augmented reality game, Pokemon Go, we ask enthusiast Graham Rodgers why he still spends four hours a day playing it.
