The Documentary Podcast
A 93 year old president gets a deputy

This is the fifth floor at the heart of global storytelling with BBC journalists from all around the world. I'm your host Farinak Amidi.

At 93, Paul Bia is the oldest head of state in the world. In June, he will have been the leader of Cameroon for 44 years and is currently serving his eighth consecutive term.

It was announced in April that for the first time in his leadership, the position of vice president will be created in the country. The forming of this new position has drawn attention to the lack of certainty within Cameroon over who will take over from Paul Bia. BBC Africa's Paul Njie is from Cameroon himself and joined me to tell me more.

Rushed and also suspicious. So there's a lot of controversy surrounding this position of the vice president. Paul, he's been in power for 44 years, as you said. How old are you? I'm 28 years old. So he's the only leader you've ever known. It must be really, really difficult for Cameroonians, for the public, to imagine a Cameroon without Bia.

This is The Fifth Floor, and I'm Farina Kamidi. Sasha is a young Russian man in his twenties. He lives in Germany on a humanitarian visa and cannot go back to Russia. This means he can't easily meet up with friends and loved ones who live back home. Recently, however, he came up with a unique solution to his problem, and the film he made about it for social media has attracted online attention.

He had to seek asylum, didn't he? Yes. So for Russians like Sasha, who are in that situation, how easy is it to keep in touch with their friends and family who are back in Russia?

The Documentary Podcast

Se antoi heille todella vahvoja ilmoituksia. TiedÀn, ettÀ kaikki tÀmÀ oli mahdollista. Luulen, ettÀ Sashalla on klipa, joka puhuu siitÀ, miten hÀn kÀsittelee ystÀviÀ. Katsotaanpa.

Kiitos paljon, Tatjana. Kiitos paljon. Kiitos Tatjana Kovtunin DepsiRussianista. Marrissa 24-vuotias thai-dragikĂ€ytĂ€ntö Gotland on saanut kolmannen Ruppolin Drag Race UK vs. The World –vaihtelun kolmannen.

Her triumph took some by surprise, but for fans of drag race, she's seen as a trailblazer, planting a flag for East Asian drag queens. For BBC Thai, Panisa Emochas sat down with her, and Panisa joins me right now from Bangkok. Welcome to the fifth floor, it's great to have you. Hi, Svetika, thank you for having me.

Wow. And from what I understand, she actually competed in the drag race in Thailand, but she didn't win the title. Tell me about her and that competition.

PidÀ eteenpÀin eteenpÀin. Yhden pÀivÀn aikana se tuottaa sinulle hyötyÀ. Se oli aika vahva asia kuulla hÀnelle, eikö niin? KyllÀ.

A lot of layers into that. How has the win been received in Thailand? Are people talking about it?

Ruotsin yksityiskohtaisuus on nyt viimeisen vuoden aikana. Ruotsin ja ukrainalaisen armeijat ovat haastaneet suurta palkkaa. Ukrainalaisuudet kirjoittavat yksityiskohtaisesti, mutta ruotsin alueet eivÀt kirjoittaneet mitÀÀn vuodesta 2022. Ruotsin BBC-kirjailija Olga Ivshina on pitÀnyt huomioon, kuinka monta ruotsin sotilasta on tullut, ja yrittÀnyt tutustua niihin enemmÀn.

Olkoon. Tervetuloa 5. puolelle. On hienoa saada sinut kuten aiemmin. Kerro minulle, kun full-scale invasioni alkoi, pÀÀtitkö aloittaa taitoja? Yksi pÀivÀ oli hieman yllÀttÀvÀÀ kaikille, mutta kaksi pÀivÀÀ sitten puhuimme kollegani,

EnimmÀisen tapauksen tapauksessa yksi kuukausi, mutta normaalisti 10 pÀivÀÀ treeniÀ ja heidÀt lÀhettÀvÀt suoraan alapuolelle, joten se on erilainen asia. JÀrjestelmÀ muuttuu. Yksi asia, jonka Olga tietÀÀ hyvin, on se, ettÀ Ruotsi kÀyttÀÀ rikkoja ja rikkoja sotilailla. Miten rikkojen ja rikkojen koulutukset ovat muuttuneet nÀiden muutamien vuosien aikana?

Mutta toivottavasti yksilöt itse asiassa, jotka ovat yliopistossa, heillÀ on parempi idea. MitÀ he sanovat siitÀ? Oletko pystynyt puhumaan heille ja saamaan heidÀn mielensÀ siitÀ, mitÀ nÀmÀ numerot tarkoittavat heille? KyllÀ, toisaalta ihmiset pitÀÀ olla huolta. Ja kyllÀ, puhun joillakin yksilöille. Heille tÀrkeintÀ on se, kuinka monta henkilöÀ he tietÀvÀt, joka on kuullut. He ovat yhdessÀ yksilöiden yksilöitÀ ja niin edelleen.

Ja kaikki nÀmÀ numerot, kuvat ja tapaukset, joita olette löytÀneet, mitÀ ne kertovat teille, ja miten ne menevÀt? MenevÀtkö ne niin kuin Ruotsi halusi? Tietysti ei. Tietysti ei. On selvÀÀ, ettÀ Ruotsi on suunniteltu blitzkriegille, joten sanotaan, ettÀ nopeammin, nopeammin, nopeammin, nopeammin, niin sanottuna erityinen sÀÀntöoperaatio.

At the end of January this year, six people were caned in public for violating Sharia law in Aceh, Indonesia. Caning is a common punishment for breaking Islamic law in religiously conservative Aceh, although the practice has drawn criticism from rights groups who say it's cruel.
