Indonesian mining law row intensifies

A row between Indonesia's mining industry and government comes to a head on Tuesday as the two sides meet to discuss a controversial new law.

The rules, which mean all raw minerals must be processed in Indonesia before they're exported, were supposed to boost jobs.
