Business Matters: Ukrainian Banks Ejected 22 Apr 14

As Crimean clocks are changed to Moscow time and the region adopts the rouble, economist1 Chris Weafer explains why some Ukrainian banks are being thrown out of the peninsula. A new powder is causing controversy2 before it has even gone on sale. Palcohol, or powdered alcohol, can be sprinkled on food or reconstituted with water. Find out what Londoners think. In Nepal, sherpas are striking; demanding more pay following last week's avalanche3 in which thirteen support staff are confirmed to have died. But what of those climbers stranded4 at base camp, waiting to tackle the world's highest peak. In Detroit, Shikha Dalmia of US libertarian think tank, Reason, tells us about her work, her life and her take on the Indian elections due to end mid-May. In Korea, ABC's Joseph Kim is with the families of those children lost in last week's ferry disaster. Plus: Lucy Kellaway of the Financial Times explains why she thinks secret surveillance at the office may not be such a bad thing.
