myanmar because at the end of the day we can asean believe in one thing, it is the same as our thing is centrality, innovating, their word inclusivity is a word we don't want to leave anybody behind. even myanmar. the other thing is politics but the most important is the people to principle, business to business. we have to make sure that the prosperity of the people of myanmar, and from us, myanmar is our brother, our sister and is part of us, and we as the people of asean, we must work together because at the end of the day it is not about politics, it is about prosperity of people...

we tell the government there are the message of peace, prosperity, how people are, and make sure we still have the challenges of our planet but the key that we also introduces that making sure the partnership that we haveis sure the partnership that we have is to make sure that the focus of our partnership is two indonesian values. number one is unity and adversity. we can have all different

hoping to get with this relationship with the uk? the most important is we are building our regional supply chain and what we want to do is click create a link with europe and we obviously, the united kingdom is a partner of asean and we are fair and what we want to create is is linkage of supply chains between our region and europe and where the uk is our partner, and so we can see a different linkage of supply change and uk has of supply change and uk has of supply change and uk has of supply change in europe itself so we believe the link of supply change, from vehicles, development, looking at various food security in all aspects of life. so this is what we want to do to strengthen relationships when asean and uk, and we see that... fik. uk, and we see that... 0k. thank you _ uk,

programme so apologies for interrupting that guest. it does move other things making headlines in asia. according to the financial times, chinese lenders stepped in to extend billions of dollars to russian banks as western institutions pulled back their operations in the country during the first year of moscow's invasion of ukraine. the moves by four of china's biggest banks are seen as part global currency to the us dollar. —— of beijing's efforts to promote the renminbi as an alternative global currency to the us dollar. let's discuss this with shanti kelemen, chief investment officer. good to have you on the programme. it is a really interesting reading today's financial times. what do you make of these for use lenders and their in russia? i make of these for use lenders and their in russia?— and their in russia? i don't think it is _ and their in russia? i don't think it is particular- think it is particular surprising. we all knew that with western banks wanting to do less and exiting the country, someone was going to have to fill the void. it is useful to see the numbers on the quantification and the amount that trade in renminbi has increased, but it is still quite a small amount relative to the dollar trade that happens globally, so it is a shift for russia, but nowhere near being a shift for the world. �* , , world. but it 'ust underlines, doesnt world. but it 'ust underlines, doesn-t it. _ world. but itjust underlines, doesn't it, how _ world. but itjust underlines, doesn't it, how this - doesn't it, how this relationship between china and russia is getting stronger, their trade relationship is reaching out in so many areas. yes, absolutely, there was more trade happening on part of the products they can't buy from western nations anymore, they have to source from china, that is something we all knew already, so it is helpful to see the numbers but i don't think it is particularly surprising. there are a lot more western companies that would probably like to get out of china more, still some european banks that are doing lending there, but some of the changes made have made it quite difficult to actually exit that market, whereas vladimir putin has veto rights over deals. so i think you will probably see it moving more in this direction in the coming years, assuming that we don't have the war in ukraine continuing. i wasjust going to war in ukraine continuing. i was just going to say that actually is in the summer of this year, the kremlin has made it really difficult, hasn't it, for other foreign organisations to remove

issue for their shareholders, if you ask your shareholders, if you ask your shareholder to take a huge shift or do they stay there and hope the law changes and try to get a better deal? and there isn't a great answer either way, obviously a lot of those banks reputational reasons don't want to be in russia but then how many... what is a financial hit they take when they leave?— financial hit

raimondo warned china in interviews broadcast on us television over the weekend that the patience of american businesses is "wearing thin". secretary raimondo, who has just returned from a trip to china, said us companies deserve a "predictable environment and a level playing field." she also commented on china's economic slowdown, saying the world's second largest economy did better when it was more transparent and market—oriented. the chinese property developer country garden has reportedly won approval from creditors to extend a deadline for a key bond repayment. that means it's narrowly avoided a potential default for now. the debt crisis in the property sector is weighing heavily on china's economy that is struggling to recover from the pandemic. coming up, made in

bringing you different stories from across the uk. they have a good amount of school uniforms and pe kits here. they are collected at schools across nottingham and washed before given to families who need extra help. in the current financial climate, demand is increasing. this summer, compared to last summer, 55 children a week needing a uniform, last year it was around 28 a week so it has roughly doubled. we are getting more referrals from different agencies. people who use this charity say it is vital. the cost of food in addition to the cost of uniform is massive, but along with that, they are expressing great appreciation for a service like this and they are grateful that something like this exists. at the moment, they only supply primary school uniforms. the charity hopes that one day it can find ways to provide secondary school uniforms as well. voice-over: for more - stories from across the uk, head to the bbc news website. you're live with bbc news. let us continue with the

search term and if they bid hi, they get ranked higher up the search rankings. actually, that's great for advertisers because they are effectively asking the public are you interested in buying my product and if you are, i will pay for you to come and visit my website and buy the product. so it's super cost efficient for advertisers to use. and customers like it because they get the answers to

monitoring will be put in place but opponents are outraged by the decision. just three countries allow commercial whaling and iceland is the only place where large fin whales are still caught. from reykjavik, adrienne murray reports. this old whaling boat will soon be heading out to see to go hunting. earlier in the summer, the practice was suspended over animal welfare concerns. now, the

from iceland to scotland. if you think of scotland, you more than likely think of tartan. the instantly recognisable textile is one of scotland's most famous cultural exports. scottish enterprise estimates that more than half of scottish textiles sales are international with the us, japan, europe and china the biggest export market for producers. tartan's textile industry currently contributes £1 billion a year to the economy. araminta campbell is the largest producer of handwoven tartan in scotland. earlier, i asked how araminta established her business. iam i am self taught in weaving so i am self taught in weaving so i very much learned on the job but at the same time as receiving my first commission for a tweed, i was basically making my mother a christmas present, weaving a present, and it was going to be a wearable artwork. my mum is allergic to wool and so, i was working with alpaca because i can source it locally so i was very much interested in locally sourced materials as well. when i then made my mum this christmas present, i actually made three items and i sold all three of them before christmas and so, it was a very organic start to the business but based on the sales of those three products, the commission for my first tweed, then felt that i had the basis something that i then wanted to continue. so i continued doing that and then, over time, wrought on my first graduate employee weaver and it's just been a very organic spin—off from that starting point. spin-off from that starting oint. �* spin-off from that starting oint. . . , spin-off from that starting oint. . ., , ., point. and clearly, you are ve , point. and clearly, you are very. very _ point. and clearly, you are very, very passionate i point. and clearly, you are | very, very passionate about point. and clearly, you are i very, very passionate about the process, about the tradition which is very intricate, it's not easy, it's not mass—market by any means. so, how did you know that this would actually be as successful as it is being or was it reallyjust the passionate review? or was it really just the passionate review? yeah, i definitely _ passionate review? yeah, i definitely didn't _ passionate review? yeah, i definitely didn't know i passionate review? yeah, i definitely didn't know it i passionate review? yeah, i i definitely didn't know it would be as successful. my pure focus was initially to continue creating my own designs, my own artworks, so it's always based in art, rather than commercial design and that is still absolutely the key focus but i didn't have a business plan, i didn't have a business plan, i did not know it was going to be luxury, i had not planned to be high—end, it was purely focused on creativity, skill and locally sourced materials. but now ou locally sourced materials. but now you are _ locally sourced materials. but now you are where you are, i mean, you've teamed up with some iconic scottish brands, you have the balmoral hotel, the royal scotsman train, also the royal scotsman train, also the likes of fortnum & mason as customers. even damejudi dench is on board. it's very successful from that point of view. was that a strategy that has kicked in all, again, was itjust organic, how it flowed? if you'd told me five years ago that would be my client list, i would have laughed. not a chance. so, it's all been very organic. my first big break would have been the five arms microphone five arms hotel. i establish the victory in 2016 and i got the commission for the hotel into october 2016 —— fyfe arms. initially it was to produce 30 metres of tweed. the hotel is coated in tweed and tartan that i designed and they are still one of my biggest clients. so, ithink are still one of my biggest clients. so, i think part of it isjust the clients. so, i think part of it is just the process and the fact that i look at it as a creative process and a storytelling process in creating meaning behind textiles, whether it is a custom designed for a client or one of my own designs for the brand. it's very much story led and i am the only designer. if you are working on a tartan with us, you are working with me, so it's personal touch. find me, so it's personaltouch. and what is next — me, so it's personaltouch. and what is next for _ me, so it's personaltouch. and what is next for you, _ me, so it's personaltouch. and what is next for you, do - me, so it's personal touch. and what is next for you, do you think? where is the expansion going to leave you? for think? where is the expansion

thatis shop in every country. in fact, that is precisely what i don't want. we have ourflagship atelier where people can visit. it's by appointment only, not open to the public, but you can book an appointment to come and see our collections. so i think in terms of growth and scaling, these are craft pieces. one weaver can make up to 45 pieces a year if working full—time. so, it's not about mass production or large—volume, it's about very meaningful, special purchases. so i think for me, growth will come but it's not about doing everything really fast, it's about doing it really well.— it really well. araminta stuart- _ it really well. araminta stuart- i— it really well. araminta stuart. iwill— it really well. araminta stuart. i will see i it really well. araminta stuart. i will see

the highest temperature we recorded over the summer was all the way back injune at 32.2 celsius. this week, we are expected to get to 30 celsius but some places could getjust a little bit warmer than that. certainly, some very warm or even hot weather in the outlook with plenty of strong sunshine butjust a little bit of mist and fog here and there — some to start monday morning, particularly across parts of south west scotland, but a few patches elsewhere tending to lift and clear very quickly and then, we will see lots of sunshine. a little bit breezy down towards the far south—west, the far north of scotland but really, only the western and northern isles seeing more cloud and a few splashes of rain. temperatures in eastern scotland up to 25, 26 degrees. parts of central and south—eastern england could well get to 29. through monday night, it stays dry with clear skies. still this weather front in the far north of scotland with a few splashes of rain and maybe the odd shower into the far south—west of england by the end of the night. 16 there in plymouth to start tuesday morning — a very warm start. a mild start elsewhere as well. for tuesday, this area of low pressure swirling to the south—west of us may just introduce the odd shower across the south—west of england, parts of wales, possibly northern ireland. our weather front in northern scotland will be weakening. elsewhere, lots more sunshine and plenty of warmth as well, although a slight shift in the wind direction will bring a slightly cooler day in the eastern side of scotland. 21 there for aberdeen. further south 27, possibly 28 degrees. as we move into wednesday, this area of high pressure changes shape, shifts to the east of us and we start to bring the winds up from the south, so another surge of very warm air. wednesday is the day when some places could get up to 30 celsius or possibly even a little bit higher than that. a few patches of mist and fog around some of the coasts but elsewhere, it's a story of warmth and sunshine. and as we head towards the end of the week, we stick with the same theme. temperatures could still get close to 30 degrees on thursday. only very, very slowly will it turn more unsettled from the west. good morning, welcome to breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. our headlines today. it's a new term for more children in england but
