reforms and administrative reforms and administrative reforms can happen. but absent of those decision—making is, we have not seen land reforms or agricultural reforms. now this is a new game and the reason i think we may see labour reforms happen is because there is an alliance —— a new landscape. an impetus with employment is becoming a key issue, and we could see more dialogue. sol think, eventually, investors will come round and see this is not such a bad outcome. the government _ not such a bad outcome. the government spending has been a big priority. what more needs to be done, it is private investment something you would be keen to look out for? yes. be keen to look out for? yes, definitely. — be keen to look out for? yes, definitely, that _ be keen to look out for? yes, definitely, that is _ be keen to look out for? yes, definitely, that is a _ be keen to look out for? yes, definitely, that is a great - definitely, that is a great point, actually. for the labour interventions that need to happen, we will see some shift in the expenditure shifts in the fiscal. so i expect cap ex to be curtailed a bit. it was still stale —— stay, but not be as high orsurging still stale —— stay, but not be as high or surging and money will go towards education, training, social sectors, which makes it all the more essential

for private investment to kick in. i think the way for that to happen is to stop promoting trade and exports and making imports cheaper. fin trade and exports and making imports cheaper.— imports cheaper. on paper, india has— imports cheaper. on paper, india has one _ imports cheaper. on paper, india has one of _ imports cheaper. on paper, india has one of the - imports cheaper. on paper, india has one of the fastest | india has one of the fastest growing economies, but there are several pressure points. what would be your first point of action to see?— of action to see? definitely like to see _ of action to see? definitely like to see dialogue - of action to see? definitely like to see dialogue and i like to see dialogue and movement on the labour side. we are focused on infrastructure and other supply side initiatives. labour's initiatives. labour's initiative has light for too long in india and the time is now. . , long in india and the time is now. ., , ., priyanka kishore. turning to the oil industry. aramco, the saudi arabian energy giant, says international investors have snatched up the bulk of shares sold in its latest offering. the state—owned company is expected to raise more than $11 billion from the move. the sale came just days after the head of the united nations called fossil fuel companies the "godfathers of climate chaos", who had deceived the public for decades. for more on this, we're

joined by saul kavonic, senior research analyst at mst marquee. the equity sale of aramco by the saudis is very much in the bigger context of what is happening here and that is where the saudis are looking to really modernise the economy and diversify away from oil and gas. and we expect the money raised, the $11 billion, $12 billion raised to go into saudi arabia's public investment fund. that is where they are undertaking a transformation of the saudi economy. the public investment is key to that. if you look at some of the ambitions the saudis have we are talking about $1 trillion of investment notjust in the futuristic city neon which many talk about, but areas like green energy both at home and

abroad, manufacturing and areas like sports and tourism, which is going to see a very fundamental change in the saudi economy and society over the next ten years.— next ten years. this plan of the saudi — next ten years. this plan of the saudi government - next ten years. this plan of the saudi government to i the saudi government to diversify beyond oil, how do you see that progressing and the kind of steps or actions likely to come ahead? for those of us who _ likely to come ahead? for those of us who have _ likely to come ahead? for those of us who have visited _ likely to come ahead? for those of us who have visited riyadh i of us who have visited riyadh lately, it is very, very different to only a few years ago, certainly ten years ago. cranes are everywhere. society and the economy is being fundamentally transformed. if you think about it for example, most of us when we are thinking of going on a holiday, i don't think saudi arabia is even on the list. but in ten years' time, saudi arabia could be one of the top tourism destinations. forthose of the top tourism destinations. for those of us who remember the transformation of dubai a few decades ago, what we see and saudi now is very much like that, but on steroids because they have got a lot more money behind it and they are attracting a lot more

foreign investment and it is a fundamental transformation. they are trying to do what a lot of western economies have taken 100 years to do in 20 years. the move in malaysia is expected to save the government around $850 million a year. diesel will now be sold at market price that will be set quickly, except in the eastern village and states. there, it will remain subsidised. no way�*s sovereign wealth fund says it will vote against ratifying tesla ceo's elon musk�*s $60 billion pay package. the fund which is a shareholder in the electric vehicle company said it remained concerned about the total size of the award after voting against it in 2018. must�*s pay package is the largest for a chief executive and corporate america. —— elon musk�*s pay package. it will be put to

some concerns over things like health and safety in its films. in april, top nollywood actorjunior pope died in a boat accident. it capsised after hitting a canoe in a river, killing five people. in this clip, filmed byjunior pope the day before he died, he's clearly concerned about his safety. an investigation found multiple failures. the boat wasn't registered, its driver had no licence, and only one passenger was wearing a life jacket. that's because they'd brought it on board themselves. the bbc has obtained a now deleted video clip from the producer's instagram, where she says she was told there were life jackets and junior pope was offered one, but didn't take it. actress and screenwriter ruth kadiri was a friend ofjunior pope's, and she was shocked by his passing. it was much more painfulfor me because i have been in that exact situation before. so i understood the fear,

everything he must have felt at the last minute of his life. i had to shoot an epic movie, so we couldn't use lifejackets. i asked everybody, the team, if everything was ok. they said, yes, the canoe was fine. so i got on the boat. "action", they said, and then they started to paddle. the canoe just tumbled into this very big river. so my colleague, frankincense — that's his name — he grabbed me because i was like, "i can't swim," you know? and stuff like that. it's... it's an experience that i will never forget. actor chidi dike says the industry is learning from its mistakes. the safety record has been quite low, but right now, it's better. so i think the incident was a bit of a wake—up call to everybody — producers, directors, actors.

right now, we have to go back home one time. come on now. lives are important, too. we all do crazy things for the love of this job. going home later at 3am on a date. we're doing things that we normally would not do. 0urtiming forfilming, it's insane. the industry should have proper rest days. i also think individuals should look out for themselves and just fix rest days for themselves. as nollywood continues to thrive, the world will now be watching how it treats people who work there. hannah gelbart, bbc news, lagos. the actors' guild of nigeria said in a statement — afterjunior pope's death — that it has set up a committee to look into improving safety guidelines and protocols. switching focus to more news now. four passengers from the us, turkey and italy travelled to the edge of space and back on a virgin galactic flight that lasted forjust over an hour. richard branson's space

welcome along. thank you forjoining us. we start with a history—making win for carlos alcaraz — the new french open champion who, at the age of 21, is the youngest man to win grand slams on all three surfaces, after he beat alexander zverev in a gripping five—set final at roland—garros. alcaraz — bottom of your screen — who's previously won the us open and wimbledon, took the opening set, playing the better tennis. but zverev, hoping to win his first grand slam title, won the next two sets and looked on course for victory, only for the spanish third seed to find another gear. he only lost three games in the final two sets, as he fulfilled what he called his "childhood dream" and emulated one of his heroes and compatriot, rafael nadal.
