BBC World Service - Business Daily, Emerging Markets' Currency Chaos?

Do recent sharp falls in the Indian rupee bode badly for emerging markets in Asia?

Do recent falls in the Indian, Brazilian and Indonesian currencies bode badly for emerging markets?

Jamie Robertson asks do recent falls in the Indian, Brazilian and Indonesian currencies bode badly for emerging markets? Chief business correspondent Linda Yueh explains and takes a look at how the Vietnamese economy may be experiencing problems as it tries to transition away from a centrally managed system. And Tokyo correspondent Rupert Wingfield-Hayes discovers that despite political sabre-rattling between their governments, there is some love between Chinese and Japanese citizens. Plus, Howard Johnson reports from a Jordanian refugee camp where the UN is charged with regulating legitimate and black markets which have organically developed there.
