From battling shoppers in Venezuela to gamblers in Macau: this year's most exotic reports

From battling shoppers in Venezuela to gamblers in Macau, the highlights of some of this year's most exotic and unusual Business Daily trips.

We review some of the most colourful reports of our broadcasting year. From shoppers scrabbling for bargains on the empty supermarket shelves of Venezuela, to high-rolling gamblers in Macau for whom the sky is the limit, from the garment workers surviving tragedy in Bangladesh, to the herdsmen of Mongolia, who've shipped their tents to the city, it's all to be found in this programme looking at back at some of the trips undertaken by the programme this year. We also hear the financial dreams of perhaps the world's biggest financial dreamer Ibrahim Ibrahimov of Azerbaijan who's building a gigantic island city off the Caspian coast.
