Protecting and Promoting Local Culture

BBC World Service - The Cultural Frontline, Protecting and Promoting Local Culture

How countries and people promote and commemorate their culture

With Tina Daheley.

From Kenya and Malawi we hear about the challenges local musicians can face getting their music heard above foreign imports. Also in the programme, what does a country fill its first national gallery with? We hear from Singapore to find out. And from Cape Town in South Africa, a walk down a historic street which tells a story about the cultural life of the city.
