Disputes over land are the biggest single cause of court cases in
Bangladesh. It's usually the rich and powerful who win. Here one couple
describes how they lost their home and their livelihood. Radio clip and

In this edition, we are in Dhaka, Bangladesh where a sudden rise in the
operation of community radio stations is expected after the government, for
the first time, came up with a progressive and pro-radio broadcasting law in
March 2008 that allows ownership of such radio stations to the local
community. Bangladesh is the second country after Nepal, among South Asian
countries, to make such a move. So far, 116 community radio stations are
waiting their final go ahead to be on air. (15:00)
