Al Jazeera English podcasts@aljazeera.net no Restoring Rangoon Al Jazeera English 101 East takes a rare peek inside Yangon's most famous building, as Myanmar's colonial architecture is under threat. Myanmar's former capital, Yangon, boasts one of the most spectacular early-20th century urban landscapes in Asia. A century ago the country's former capital was one of the world's great trading cities and the legacy of that cosmopolitan past remains today. But as the country opens up, this unique heritage is under threat. Decades of neglect have left once grand buildings a crumbling mess and they are at grave risk of being demolished in favour of hastily built towers and condominiums. http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2405958772001_Web-101east2-1138-24.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2405667233001 Fri, 24 May 2013 13:49:51 +0300 1500 myanmar,Yangon,Restoring Rangood,youtube,aljazeera,rangoon,burma,101east,Aela Callan,101 East,al Jazeera <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~4/oiP5EVyC614" height="1" width="1"/>http://feeds.aljazeera.net/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~3/oiP5EVyC614/665003303001_2405958772001_Web-101east2-1138-24.mp4http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2405958772001_Web-101east2-1138-24.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2405667233001http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2405958772001_Web-101east2-1138-24.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2405667233001 101 East- License to Kill Al Jazeera English As Australians debate about legalising euthanasia, has an entire nation lost its moral compass? It is illegal in Australia, taboo across Asia, and a political and moral minefield to boot, yet poll after poll shows 80 percent of Australians want voluntary euthanasia introduced. The nation shocked the world in the 1990s when the Northern Territory became the first place in the world to permit voluntary euthanasia. The controversial law was almost immediately repealed, but now euthanasia is back on the agenda as it grapples with an ageing population coupled with huge advances in technology that mean many people face a medicalised, prolonged and costly death. http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2388557497001_Web-101east-707-16.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2388385218001 Fri, 17 May 2013 12:21:13 +0300 1500 you tube,101east,euthanasia,al Jazeera,101 East,australia,youtube,aljazeera <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~4/7zNVQuNRs3w" height="1" width="1"/>http://feeds.aljazeera.net/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~3/7zNVQuNRs3w/665003303001_2388557497001_Web-101east-707-16.mp4http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2388557497001_Web-101east-707-16.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2388385218001http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2388557497001_Web-101east-707-16.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2388385218001 Reef Race Al Jazeera English Environmentalists race to save Australia's Great Barrier Reef as port expansions threaten its World Heritage status.

China may soon be the birthplace to half the world's billionaires but Singapore - the world's richest city - is where they go to play. Some of the rich and famous who have moved to the tiny Southeast Asian island republic include Indian telecom tycoon Bhupendra Kumar Modi, Chinese movie superstars Gong Li and Jet Li, New Zealand billionaire Richard Chandler, and famed US investor Jim Rogers. One in six households in Singapore have a net worth of $1m, reflecting the flow of wealth eastwards as the centre of global economic activity shifts to Asia. With low taxes, a reliable, corruption-free government and protective private banking laws, the world's ultra-rich are flocking to make Singapore home, giving it the highest percentage of millionaire households in the world. While the rich have fun, locals are struggling to keep up with the rising cost of living. http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2348678709001_WEB-101E-1017-03.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2348568283001 Fri, 03 May 2013 14:10:59 +0300 1500 101east,corruption,youtube,tax,China,singapore,al Jazeera,aljazeera <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~4/uz0YuLo2dhQ" height="1" width="1"/>http://feeds.aljazeera.net/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~3/uz0YuLo2dhQ/665003303001_2348678709001_WEB-101E-1017-03.mp4http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2348678709001_WEB-101E-1017-03.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2348568283001http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2348678709001_WEB-101E-1017-03.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2348568283001 Malaysia election Al Jazeera English Facing a raft of domestic issues, can Malaysia's government weather a growing opposition onslaught to win the elections? In Malaysia, the 13th general election has been called by Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak after a year-long speculation.More than 13 million Malaysians will go to the polls on May 5. This is the first time that the ruling party has gone through the full five-year term before dissolving parliament.Najib, who became prime minister after his predecessor quit four years ago, has never led the party in a general election and political pundits argue that this has put him in a difficult position to force through any potential policy changes. The election could be the closest in history. Najib needs to reverse the huge gains the Anwar Ibrahim-led opposition alliance Pakatan Rakyat (PR) made in 2008, when the ruling National Front lost five of 13 states and the two-thirds majority which it had enjoyed since Independence about 57 years ago.The issues of the campaign include race, vote buying, electoral fraud, Hudud law and corruption. http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2310352441001_WEB-101EST-MALAYSIA-1651-18.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2310011257001 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 11:11:00 +0300 2448 malaysia,elections,youtube,corruption,Islamic law,democracy,101 East,Najib Tun Razak,you tube,aljazeera,al Jazeera,Electoral Fraud,101east <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~4/Lc52Fkz2Yyc" height="1" width="1"/>http://feeds.aljazeera.net/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~3/Lc52Fkz2Yyc/665003303001_2310352441001_WEB-101EST-MALAYSIA-1651-18.mp4http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2310352441001_WEB-101EST-MALAYSIA-1651-18.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2310011257001http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2310352441001_WEB-101EST-MALAYSIA-1651-18.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2310011257001 The unholy conspiracy Al Jazeera English Will an inquiry into decades of child sex abuse in Australia and alleged cover-ups by the Catholic Church serve justice?

Myanmar, a diverse country of over 55 million people has entered a new era of unprecedented democratic reform after decades of military rule. The success of the country's transition hinges on peace negotiations with multiple armed ethnic groups. These minorities represent more than one-third of the population in the resource-rich borderlands of the country. In the past year, ceasefire agreements have been signed with 13 rebel armies, but one conflict in Kachin state remains the key stumbling block. Chief peace negotiator U Aung Min has given 101 East exclusive access to the latest round of negotiations with the Kachin, as he navigates the tricky path to peace. http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2279585685001_WEB-101EST-1405-05.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2278338770001 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 16:40:05 +0300 1500 101east,Min Zaw Oo,Kachin,Charles Petrie,myanmar,Ceasefire,U Aung Min,united nations,peace,al Jazeera,youtube,aljazeera,101 East <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~4/UHr0GVnK3aY" height="1" width="1"/>http://feeds.aljazeera.net/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~3/UHr0GVnK3aY/665003303001_2279585685001_WEB-101EST-1405-05.mp4http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2279585685001_WEB-101EST-1405-05.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2278338770001http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2279585685001_WEB-101EST-1405-05.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2278338770001 Diminishing ray of hope Al Jazeera English We explore how the demand for manta gill plates is threatening the existence of one of the most graceful marine species.

Participants in Indonesia Mengajar, a programme funded by private corporations and run by prominent university educator Anies Baswedan, are given army survival training before being deployed.

Jakarta, Indonesia, is one of Asia's most flood-prone cities. Every year hundreds of thousands of citizens living in the capital of Southeast Asia's largest economy brace for the loss of business, shelter and livelihoods. Each year, as the rainy season approaches, the authorities insist they are ready to counter the tides of brown murky water, trash, and even animals, surging downstream.

Australia is one of the richest nations in the world. Yet there is a growing poverty gap which can be seen in suburbs like Claymore. The New South Wales government built this public housing estate in the 1970s and filled it with people from Sydney's poorest families, creating a welfare ghetto. Today, Claymore is one of the most disadvantaged suburbs in Australia with the highest proportion of young children anywhere in the country. But poverty in wealthy Australia is not limited to Claymore. According to surveys and reports, 2.2 million Australians live below the poverty line, while more than 600,000 children under 15 live in households where no one has a job. 101 East hears the heart-wrenching stories of the economically disadvantaged children from modern Australia and asks why the cycle of poverty has not been cracked in this rich nation. http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2147002561001_WEB-EST-Down-1702-6.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2146841612001 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 07:57:55 +0300 1500 Australia poverty,australia,Claymore children,101east,welfare ghetto,youth unemployment Australia,Unemployment,101 East,Sydney poor,aljazeera,cycle of poverty,claymore,youtube <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~4/K3vU8MYOrWM" height="1" width="1"/>http://feeds.aljazeera.net/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~3/K3vU8MYOrWM/665003303001_2147002561001_WEB-EST-Down-1702-6.mp4http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2147002561001_WEB-EST-Down-1702-6.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2146841612001http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_2147002561001_WEB-EST-Down-1702-6.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=2146841612001 A curse in the family Al Jazeera English As India modernises and gender roles change, some persecuted women are fighting back.

Thousands of foreign workers have died in Malaysia in recent years from accidents, illnesses and suicide. They work in so-called '3D' conditions - dirty, dangerous and difficult. Critics say the death rate is a result of slack safety standards, poor housing conditions and weak enforcement of laws to protect them. Last year, more than 1,000 foreign workers died from accidents, illnesses and suicide. Malaysia is the largest importer of labour in Asia. Migrant workers provide cheap labour in construction, manufacturing and plantation industries. There are more than three million foreign workers, of which nearly a third is undocumented. Most of the migrant workers come from Bangladesh, India, Indonesia and Nepal. Desperate to repay debts from the high recruitment agency fees and under financial pressure from their families back home, migrant workers are vulnerable to exploitation. Many suffer non-payment of wages, abuse, serious injuries and even death. On this episode, the 101 East team meets those who risk it all to make a living in Malaysia and ask: Is enough being done to keep them safe? http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_1999162015001_WEB-101-0844-30.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=1998859537001 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 11:59:46 +0300 1504 workers,al Jazeera,bangladesh,Indonesia,labour,india,aljazeera,human rights,101east,youtube,malaysia,nepal <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~4/ZlRR4iPQgn8" height="1" width="1"/>http://feeds.aljazeera.net/~r/podcasts/101eastHD/~3/ZlRR4iPQgn8/665003303001_1999162015001_WEB-101-0844-30.mp4http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_1999162015001_WEB-101-0844-30.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=1998859537001http://bc05.ajnm.me/665003303001/665003303001_1999162015001_WEB-101-0844-30.mp4?pubId=665003303001&videoId=1998859537001 Ageing Japan Al Jazeera English How can the world's most elderly society overcome its demographic crisis?
