President donald trump on wednesday indicating that he may consider offering temporary protected status or even asylum to those in venice will of wishing to flee political persecution this suggestion has a lot to do with editorials that ran in newspapers here in the United States in the last week or so essentially calling the president i have a crib for talking tough on venezuela criticizing the leader in venezuela Nicolas Maduro of calling him a brutal dictator but then doing nothing to support the people in terms of offering them the opportunity to leave the troubled nation so as a result it may be that donald trump is responding to those allegations of hypocrisy we know already that 3400000 beddes whalens have left but theyve been absorbed mostly by countries with far lesser means than the United States colombia peru ecuador chill a argentina we do know earlier this month there are rather earlier this year in the house of representatives democrats put forward a bill to try and offer some sort of asylum to 72000 venezuelans a similar measure introduced in the senate but getting very lukewarm support from republicans so it appears that now the president may have a couple of things on his mind not only those editorials that may be sort of pushing the president to soften his immigration stance but also the fact that many venezuelans that do flee do live in the u.

K. s Largest Charities has been heavily criticised for failing to disclose allegations of child abuse by its workers a damning report by the Charity Commission says that oxfam g. B. Had a culture of tolerating poor behavior oxfam aid workers were alleged to have used prostitutes in haiti after the devastating earthquake in 2010 there were claims that some of the prostitutes were as young as 12 or 13 the report says the charity did not do enough to investigate the allegations oxfam has apologized for what it called shameful actions. This is an organization that has lost sight to some extent to what it stands for and the people that it exists to serve oxfam is an organization which is about relieving poverty in. Front of people anywhere in the in the world and in their response to events in haiti what we saw from their reporting to the commission and to other or thought is was a lack of full and frank disclosure and therefore we see in and take the view that they were putting their own Corporate Reputation 1st instead of the people who had come to harm whats one as high court has ruled in favor of decriminalizing homosexuality. There were scenes of jubilation inside the courthouse in the capital the judges ruled that a 965. 00 law which made homosexuality punishable by up to 7 years in prison was this criminal tree the ruling comes just a month after Kenyas High Court upheld its laws criminalizing homosexuality but sabu my lawyer is advocacy director for the Pan Africa International Lesbian gay bisexual trans and Intersex Association she says the judgment could have widespread ramifications throughout africa. The judgment is very significant because it sets a precedent for the rest of the countries in africa especially those who form part of the commonwealth countries in africa and we are at a point now where we are repossessing the narrative and doing away with colonial laws which view homosexuality and queerness as pervasive or rather subversive in nature so it is a very important judgment its also. The introduction of a turn of a new tide in africa where we are now having to be forced to actually see that these colonial laws do not belong to africa and rather reclaiming our queer stories in africa the language of jeju is spoken by fewer than 10000 people and its not just a small number of speakers but an aging one that lives on an island off the Korean Peninsula bride went there to find out how theyre trying to save their language one word at a time. Preparing for a concert these children are singing in a language that dates back thousands of years but could have a future numbering just a few. Parents whove been listening to them rehearse the lyrics are mostly just memories from their own childhoods. When i was young i spoke it but after i started work ive rarely had opportunities to use such a language with a cultural history that is probably as old as the rest of korea jeju has a unique language to match. But integration in more modern Times Combined with immigration and mass tourism have all taken their toll. What makes the language so endangered is that a low an estimated 10000. 00 people still speak it nearly all of them are elderly and that unless something is done now within a few decades it could simply disappear. Among the measures being taken by the islands government compulsory language classes in schools. And its similar 10 years use alongside standard korean in official documents to. The jesuit language on their peons the culture and spirit of the people its part of the character of the ali and we want to revive the peoples culture identity through the languages you know that i think another initiative a jew language hotline. Language expert kim soon Just Department undertook an ambitious exercise 15 years ago recording hundreds of hours of interviews with native jeju speakers already she says many of the words and phrases in common use then have that. It adds urgency to hold on to whats left when all that. Happened rather than trying to resurrect the old language all goal is to extend the use of some of the more beautiful words and phrases into the modern language then the language will not disappear completely. To keep it alive at least in part for future generations rather than allowing it to slip away with the present generation of elderly islanders. Mcbride aljazeera jeju south korea.
