As riots continue in major US cities, how have America's biggest companies reacted? The 大象传媒's Michelle Fleury brings us up to date from New York.
Clothes shops are starting to reopen in some places, and Bangladesh鈥檚 garment sector hopes to recover. Factories there were hit hard by cancelled orders at the peak of lockdowns around the world, and Rubana Huq, president of the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association tells us whether her members are receiving new orders now. Also in the programme, with tens of thousands of job cuts announced, and the aviation industry cautious about forecasting a return to 2019 passenger levels, the 大象传媒鈥檚 Mike Powell reports on the uncertainty and mental health challenges faced by workers in the sector. Plus, with horse racing back in the UK for the first time in months, albeit in front of empty stands, Brant Dunshea, chief regulatory officer for the British Horseracing Authority, explains the differences that fans will see.
