Saudi Arabia: Companies Boycott Investor Conference
Companies start to boycott an investor conference in Saudi Arabia after the disappearance of Saudi Journalist Jamal Khashoggi
Companies and media organisations are boycotting an investor conference in Saudi Arabia amid rising concern about the disappearance in Turkey of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Also in the programme, should lithium to be traded on the London Metals Exchange?
And - you buy a purse at Walmart. There's a note inside - apparently from a prisoner in China - saying I made your nice new bag - and I'm incarcerated in terrible conditions and the guards are stealing my food. What do you do?

Fergus Nicoll is joined throughout the programme by Radio New Zealand's Auckland bureau chief Sharon Brettkelly.
