Akisa Wandera reports from Angola, where billions of dollars are being poured into a vast new trade corridor at the centre of a global race for critical minerals. We examine what's at stake for the people living on the frontline of this transformation. Plus: BBC Brasil travels to the city of Camaçari, where Chinese carmaker BYD has opened its biggest factory in Latin America.
