— English Law Promotion Panel — Farzana joins a new UK government panel positioning English law as a “hidden superpower” and a global jurisdiction of choice amid competition from Singapore and Dubai.

— US entry requirements and social media scrutiny — A proposed shift for visitors that could ripple across tourism, hospitality, and the perception of the US abroad.
