Asia is the focus of this week’s edition as editor-in-chief Tyler Brûlé puts a call in to Richard Lloyd Parry, Asia editor of The Times of London, to discover how Japan is preparing for President Obama’s official visit this week. The team also welcome into the studio Monocle's contributing editor Rachel Morarjee, who is fresh off the plane from a tour of China. She reveals how the country is changing, both for the better and for the worse. Editor Andrew Tuck and culture editor Rob Bound are also around the table with the usual cultural insights and commentary, and finally we return to Tokyo to check in with our design editor, Sarah Balmond, who gives us her impressions of exploring Tokyo Design week for the first time.
