Dutch under pressure for sending refugees to Somalia

Human Rights Watch has urged the Netherlands to drop plans to send a group of failed Somalian asylum seekers home, saying their safety will be in danger if they return to the war-torn country. HRW's Leslie Lefkow says Mogadishu is one of the world's most dangerous places and the proposal breaches UN guidelines on refugees.

Doing business in North Korea
The US has just imposed additional sanctions on North Korea and the United Nations has condemned it for pursuing a nuclear weapons programme. But far from seeing it as a dodgy prospect, the business community's starting to invest in the rogue state. Dutch businessman Paul Tjia explains why he is leading a European delegation to the country in search of favourable deals.
