They turned up not just because Yoon's decision had alarmed and angered them, but to protest against a president who insisted South Korea was free of sexism - despite the deep discrimination and flashes of violence that said otherwise.They returned week after week as the investigation into Yoon's abuse of power went on - and they rejoiced when he was impeached after four dramatic months.

And yet, with the country set to elect a new president on 3 June, those very women say they feel invisible again.The two main candidates have been largely silent about equality for women. A polarising subject, it had helped Yoon into power in 2022 as he vowed to defend men who felt sidelined in a world that they saw as too feminist. And a third candidate, who is popular among young men for his anti-feminist stance, has been making headlines.For many young South Korean women, this new name on the ballot symbolises a new fight.

"So many of us felt like we were trying to make the world a better place by attending the [anti-Yoon] rallies," the 24-year-old college student says."But now, I wonder if anything has really improved… I can't shake the feeling that they're trying to erase women's voices."

Huddling inside hooded jackets or under umbrellas, waving lightsticks and banners, singing hopeful K-pop numbers, they demanded Yoon's ouster.India remains the world's fastest growing major economy, although growth has sharply dropped from the 9.2% high recorded in financial year 2023-24.

Asia's third-largest economy benefitted from strong farm activity, steady public spending and improved rural demand in the last financial year, even as manufacturing and new investments by private companies remained weak.While rural growth has improved on account of a strong winter harvest, it is not nearly enough to offset continuing weakness in urban consumption, which has flagged due to high unemployment and lower wages.

India's growth engine remains heavily dependent on the government's infrastructure spending on roads, ports and highways, in the absence of significant improvement in private investment.Going forward, domestic growth should benefit from government's income tax cuts announced in the federal budget, as well as "monetary easing, expectations of an above normal monsoon and lower food inflation", Aditi Nayar, an economist with the ratings agency Icra, said.
