We take stock of the German economy on the day Angela Merkel marks 14 years as Chancellor. Stefanie Bolzen is London correspondent of German daily Die Welt, and tells us that economic confidence is declining in Germany. And we talk to a group of teenage students from Hamburg about their hopes and fears for the years ahead. Also in the programme, we hear why in Africa mental health care has not been a top priority. Victor Ugo is a Nigerian doctor who suffers from depression, whose experience led him to set up the Mentally Aware Nigeria Initiative, and we find out more from Olayinka Omigbodun, professor of psychiatry at the University of Ibadan in Nigeria. Plus, US lingerie brand Victoria's Secret has cancelled its annual fashion show, which had been running for almost a quarter of a century. The 大象传媒's Emma Simpson explains why.
