not fair, americans by millions of japanese cars every year and japanese cars every year and japanese by hardly any american cars and he is right. last year only 13,000 american cars were sold here injapan so why is it the japanese do not buy american cars like this one?

master that craft. it is a lifelong process. in that process, i think understanding digital economy, able to fit in a digital place will be critical. that applies to every field. even if you are a chef, you continue to cook well but you must be able to process each payment, receive eu orders and be comfortable in that environment. it is about many parts, many parts to success and then been very good at what you are doing. the other thing you report mentions is how singapore must deepen global ties but as we have been talking about, protectionism is on the rise in the us and europe — how do you plan to achieve that? this sudden protectionist flavour moving around the world but if you think about it carefully, the world is still globalising. the tide has not been

abated all subsided stop white? because it is driven by technology. you cannot stop the internet, jet air planes flying all over the world, you cannot stop news being broadcast, information being so available, you cannot stop people on the go wanted to go in emerging markets, to develop their business. i think that trend is still there and singapore always relies on that trend to make ourselves a good living. since the new us president has taken office, it is that to say tensions between the us and china have been rising. singapore has so far managed to maintain a gap between the two powers but is that the trump administration making it difficult? it is early days. he is difiegg'xéz seesifitiézae political... ., the secretary

the first to fall behind the previous generation. take matt, his 24 previous generation. take matt, his 2a and 19—year—old ben. they found rewarding jobs but admit they cannot match what their mum and dad had. my dad managed to get himself a well earned job and has been in it for his life. i have been through for a five jobs his life. i have been through for a fivejobs for his life. i have been through for a five jobs for getting his life. i have been through for a fivejobs for getting a his life. i have been through for a five jobs for getting a job i his life. i have been through for a fivejobs for getting a job i happy with. it needs to be looked into. it is harder for us. it sets us off to a slow start. to give you an idea of just how tough it has been for these millennial is, take a look at this. a 40% decrease in the number of young men working in manufacturing. 45% rise in young men working in low—paid jobs like retail. 0ver role, they are something like £4000 less tha n role, they are something like £4000 less than the generation that came before them. it is the disappearance

of high skills, high paid jobs of the past that have driven at these trends. a report says women have bucked the trend, moving into better jobs. but what about the parents of millennial men? should young men be earning more than their parents? you would have thought so in this day and age, really. things are supposed to get better in the world. everybody expects the kids to do better than the previous generation, don't they? many believe today's young people are overrewarded in life but it seems that millennial is can sometimes mean minimal. duncan kennedy, bbc news, southampton. welcome to the bbc sports centre.
