There's unrest across Indonesia over members of parliament increasing their pay despite a severe cost of living crisis. Protests intensified after a police vehicle hit and killed a motorcycle rider.

Also in the programme: leaders from more than 20 countries meet in Tianjin as China hosts this year's Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit; and we look at the link between poor sleep and the risk of disease.

Joining presenter Gary O鈥橠onoghue are Chitra Nagarajan, a writer and human rights activist specialising in Nigeria and West Africa, and Natasha Lindstaedt, professor of government and international relations at the University of Essex.
