Afghanistan prepares to vote

BBC World Service - World Business Report, Afghanistan prepares to vote

The huge challenges facing Afghanistan's future president.

Afghans get ready to vote for a new president, but there's growing gloom over the economic crisis.

As Taliban threats loom on the imminent elections in Afghanistan, author Noah Coburn discusses the huge economic and political challenges facing the future president. As hundreds of Cambodian garment workers are taken ill, we ask if it is poor factory ventilation or simply lack of basic food that is to blame. And co-founder of Pixar Ed Catmull talks about his new book "Creativity: overcoming the unseen forces that stand in the way of true inspiration" as well as spilling the beans on early Pixar investor Steve Jobs.
