Were prepared to negotiate with no preconditions they know precisely how to find us to passe is a professor at Georgetown University and author of the book there is an enemy obama iran and the triumph of diplomacy he says talents attempts at diffusing conflicts are being undermined by his own officials the president and want Different Things from what his secretary of state his Vice President and his National Security advisor wants all of them have signed on to this maximum pressure strategy but theyre only in agreement when it comes to tactics tonight an agreement when it comes to the objectives trump i think generally wants diplomacy but the others seem to be supporting this strategy precisely because they believe it would lead to a military confrontation and they all advised him to take military confrontation a couple days ago and he chose not to do so at the last minute if he truly wants it he needs to set aside his maximum strategy maximum pressure strategy most likely firebolt an empty o.

Israels Prime Minister says hell give the u. S. Peace plan for the middle east fair consideration but Palestinian LeaderMahmoud Abbas has criticized the proposal saying its bound to fail the u. S. Will present the plan as a conference in bahrains capital manama this week oh no. I dont think it will be any results from the manana workshop because it was built on wrong foundations what is built on falsehood is false the minimal workshop came to solve the problem but what problem you cannot make problem but this is a political problem it cannot make problem with who for example when they say they want to give the palestinians an amount of money to the palestinians they should have an insidious statehood so you need to 1st recognize the state after that you can say this state needs this and that. Now hundreds of thousands of protesters have rallied in the Czech Republic demanding that the Prime Minister step down if the latest demonstration and toppling andre bobbish here faces a criminal investigation over alleged fraud some say this is the biggest protest there since the fall of communism in 1989. 250000 people came to this demonstration whether or not thats accurate the demonstration was certainly large and it shows anger at the Prime Minister in some sections of Czech Society isnt dissipating. Because of. Prime minister because of how the president because we are ashamed by. This are still just. So we dont agree with. Yassin. Publish a billionaire businessman turned politician is facing a criminal prosecution for allegedly using e. U. Subsidy money to build real estate a decade ago the e. U. Suspects there are conflicts of interest with his businesses he denies any wrongdoing but appointing a new Justice Minister shortly after police recommended a prosecution is what triggered the protests but now hes refusing to step down the problem is that in parliament. Really isnt any majority for. Fish so its really kind of moot point whether these demonstrations can be can be successful some commentators are even saying that actually the demonstration increase the support for. This is yes there are plans no confidence vote in Parliament Next Week is likely to fail but the street protests against him which began as a small student. Movements are getting bigger and bigger.

And the power has been fighting for justice for more than 5 years since 1000 year old son jonathan was killed in a police raid for you we often hear that that was the worst day of my life i would never imagine even in my worst nightmares losing a son i didnt believe it was happening i thought i was dying with him. Was just one of the thousands of mostly poor young black men killed by rio police in recent years more than 1500 in 2018. The number of killings has increased since president bush took office this year. The reason given is always that the victims fired 1st jonathan was not armed but this is what i demand it doesnt matter if i am black poor or if i live in a poor neighborhood i am a citizen i pay my taxes like anyone else so i demand the state gives me an answer for this murder and the answer is justice i will accept nothing else and paolo knows the name of her sons killer he was found to have killed 3 times previously hes been assigned administrative duties still in possession of his piece gone bad although the statistics are shocking they only hint at the full scale of the suffering the daily violence that engender is grief and fear hidden away out of sight infidel as well shanty towns such as this one.

The philippines is struggling to control the use of single use plastic packages its estimated that more than 160000000 of them wash up on river banks than coastlines every day but some youth have come up with a constructive way to use the plastic to build a Better FutureJamil Allen Dogan explains. For the last 2 years these students have been collecting rubbish every day its helped clean up the campus and help to build some of its facilities for every 2 kilos of Plastic Waste because this School Receives a brick made of plastic and cement. And this school contains been built with them this school to watch tower was built with the same bricks 2 this is a solution for the environmental problem because we are diverting wastes away from the landfill so we are in effect an alternative to downsize to the landfill some of the bricks are designed to allow rainwater to see through and that helps stop the streets flooding for some activists this may not be the most ecological way to eliminate the problems of plastic but this is seen as an immediate solution to the growing problems of landfills across the Country Waste can now be used to manufacture building materials. But greenpeace says more needs to be done and Multinational Companies need to be made responsible for pushing the socalled sashay economy from coffee shampoo to cooking oil these Consumer Products come in cheap single use packages its a very important that the consumers they have the purchasing power and they can actually put pressure into this manufacturers these companies so they can actually influence and ask their Favorite Brands i love your products we use their products we buy your products what you need to deliver it in a more sustainable in a logical way the capital manila generates almost 10000 tons of garbage every day every community here is mandated by law to have a Materials Recovery facility where biodegradable and recyclable waste is sorted but government figures show around only 20 percent of the villages in the country have one. This is one of the most impoverished areas in manila rubbish is directly affecting the lives of people here the challenge of Plastic Waste is global and growing and in the battle against it people here say they feel theyre on the front line.

An estimated 2000000000 people taking to the streets to get that last night the activist continue to press for he left the show a controversial cut and now theyre just pointing the finger maybe more because people think that everything about college that makes. Hello im Richard Burton youre the listening post here are some of the media stories that were covering this week the historic protests in hong kong we break down the coverage within Mainland China and beyond. Straight out to chengdu supported by the state the chinese rappers talking trade war trash to donald trump. The death of the Muslim Brotherhoods Mohamed Morsy one last chance for the egyptian news media to show their true colors on his story plus film as apartheid era propaganda and the South African movie makers were calling the shots the world is watching that is the chant on the streets of hong kong as images of mega protests are beamed around the globe 2000000 people in a city state of just 7000000 out to stop the passage of a law that would allow suspected criminals to be extradited to Mainland China last saturday hong kong as lead politician the beijing backed kerry lamb announced that she was suspending the implementation of the legislation but that was not nearly enough either for the demonstrators or the local reporters covering this story because hong kong journalists know that should this bill pass beijing could extradite them one day as well as theres. Sources communist Party Leaders on the mainland are watching the situation closely to their public are far less informed state run television has either ignored the protests or echoed the party line that there is some western conspiracy at play here our starting point this week is the semi autonomy for now special Administrative Region of china hong kong. At 1st the hong kong authorities played the waiting game hoping that with time the surge onto the streets of the city state would subside but the opposition to the proposed extradition treaty with china would fade that the story would go away then hong kongs chief executive realized that wasnt happening prior to deciding to suspend the passage of the new law carry lamb went before the cameras she chose to do so on t. V. Be a government friendly chat. But if she thought she was heading into a softball interview she was mistaken t. V. B. Did not broadcast the question she is about to answer but one can easily surmise it had something to do with selling her people and. What are you doing. No i talked to god she decided to pick one television station to give her interview to rather than sit give a General Press conference at that stage and she picked hong kongs only remaining main free terrestrial t. V. Station known to be progovernment no to exercise selfcensorship what stands out is actually how tone deaf replies. Your dame we. All i. Didnt think i was. Young. Im saying. Im saying why it is quite ridiculous for a achieve executive officer to be referring to herself as a mother of spoiled children she just cannot give us whatever we want know that others very. Might say you must listen to me because im a parent but of course that is not an appropriate stands for someone who is governing our city and actually she is paid by our taxes. The protests are occurring in a place that is in a preplanned state of political limbo lasting half a century. When britain handed hong kong back to china in 1997 the one country 2 systems framework that came with the force promised citizens of quote high degree of autonomy for 50 years which explains the lack of an extradition treaty with Mainland China. But there have been plenty of signs that beijing is already influencing politics and the state of the media in hong kong the South China Morning Post long considered the newspaper of record was bought by the chinese ecommerce giant alibaba in 2015 and has since seen a mass exodus of staff complaining about soft coverage of china but that same year another paper ming powell was criticized for killing an investigative story on the Tiananmen Square massacre and replacing it with a piece on alibaba as a role model for young entrepreneurs and on the current protest story ming pao journalists posted an open letter critical of the papers biased reporting in favor of the authorities and police and taking issue with editorials that called the protesters rioters is not just about the bill but about. The chinas attitude towards press for their own and this understanding of Judicial Independence so for journalists and editors from hong kong they have been rest or even sentenced to jail by. Charges that have nothing to do with their report hong kong being a Key Information hop for journalists not just in hong kong but the around the world to report on china so that extradition bill will expose each and every of them to risk weve seen creeping selfcensorship weve seen. Businesses withdrawing their advertising under pressure from needing to do business with china so all those things are very real threats but at the same time compared to the press in Mainland China the Hong Kong Media is far more vibrant is out there exposing scandal and people are very proud of that and the fact that the media can report on these demonstrations is very. Point to the people of hong kong home calls the situation has been taken up by the International Media almost uniformly at stake say the demonstrators is nothing less than hong kong status as an island of rights and freedoms in a one party state and over the years beijing has been gradually exerting more and more influence over on college for those who marched enough is enough saying that hong kong is you know being threatened they say you know this is a david and goliath story coming here that well chinas to the mainland Justice System is a pay its not fair their brutal use torture all of these things but i dont know that you can deal a generalize an entire country because of a few examples. The examples go well beyond a few beijing has little tolerance for dissent either in the mainstream news media or on social media where the Major Chinese platform sign away bow and we chat both censored the protest story social media in hong kong was also affect the founder of telegram and encrypted messaging Service Popular with protest organizers said the platform came under cyber attack from the mainland initially state controlled Media Outlets in china turned a blind eye to the story in hong kong but as the protests continued and grew that policy changed. They had to give it some coverage and given the growing trade war between the Trump White House and president siege in pings government in beijing the notion of foreign interests inciting the unrest got a lot of play. Well for sure you know some people they have really been completely brainwashed into thinking that all these protests initiated by foreign influences but thats just ridiculous like 2000000 people on this tree of course that this is not true and but thats what theyre trying to tell the public in china Chinese Media is not going to win a shouting match in the International Community anything that is said it will be say oh well all the state run a state influenced whatever they say is propaganda so there is a very difficult position when it comes to these types of things now on the other hand donald trump has drawn the biggest target on china the western press has a duty to try to figure out whats going on what are the forces that are playing out here not just within beijing but also with. The numbers on the streets of hong kong are considerably higher than the last time mass demonstrations occurred in 2014 over proposed electoral reforms because the stakes have grown larger with the passage of time the city state is now 5 years closer to losing what autonomy it still has the remnants of a democracy the semblance of a free media 5 years closer to 2047 and direct rule by beijing if hong kong was in control of its own future those 2000000 people on the streets would amount to real political power a force to be reckoned with but its not and there is a country of 1400000000 next door with a government in beijing that like the media it controls is treating this as a nonstory. Were looking at other media stories that are on our radar this week with one of our producers and actually ravi minima hammad morsi egypts 1st and only democratically elected president died at a Court Appearance this past week thats big news by anyones measure but one would not have known that judging from what egyptian newspapers did with that story you wouldnt have richard and even by the poor standards of a lot of egyptian journalism this was embarrassing virtually all the papers buried the story on the inside pages and the publishing word for word a 42. 00 word paragraph reportedly whatsapp to editors by a Government Official now only one paper the privately owned and muskie uloom actually put the news on to their front page now morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood have long been treated as punching bags by egyptian talk show hosts who are very popular in that market what they have to say about this story let me start by showing you a clip thats not from a talk show host but from a news anchor she had her copied it in for her as well but that is that and has samsung it was a copy and paste job onto the audi q and if anyone had any doubt that last line sent from a Samsung Mobile gave it all away now talking about talk show hosts lets start by looking at one of the most prominent ones. Well pretty soon our dogs here are i mean men are how it goes as unfrocked although theres this form factor there are many home there is a reason moose and name checks aljazeera following the 2013 army led who that overthrew Mohammed Morsi the government of a. Crackdown on aljazeera in egypt accusing them of supporting the Muslim Brotherhood now the bureau in cairo was shut down 3 jazeera journalists were jailed and eventually freed but one just either journalist Mahmoud Hussein has been in jail for more than 100 days now and has yet to be charged across egypt media conditions under sisi are grim their record numbers of journalists have been jailed and off the 180 countries rank for press freedom by Reporters Without Borders egypt is at number 163 ok moving on now last week we reported on the iranian activist has a writer and a productive one dozens of articles published by mostly us media articles that advocated regime change in iran then allergy is exposed by the intercept an American News outlet as a fraud a nonexistent person a creation of a shadowy Iranian Opposition group known as the i me k. But i take it thats not where the story ends is it apparently not richard now after the intercept published that article twitter took down account however the person or people behind this persona continue to write via a blog in which they said he would never reveal his identity and attacking twitter for caving in to his critics now we tried to get in touch with. But the comments be posted on his blog in which hed requested for an interview just never got through they disappeared into the ether but the story doesnt end there is now back on twitter his account has been reinstated so we got in touch with the company to ask them what had reassured them of the accounts authenticity now twitter came back to us with quite a shady response they said that they would only share information with us as. Long as it was not attribute to twitter for a company that advocates transparency this is a curious position to take so we continue to pursue the matter with twitter and wade in touch with the intercept that remains on the study ok thanks mina. Were going to scroll back now more than 4 decades and look at a slice of history filmmaking in south africa during the era of apartheid like many governments south africa has offered subsidies to the Film Industry and the subsidy were looking at was known as the b. Scheme in order to qualify filmmakers who were mostly white back then how to produce films with black casts for black audiences in a black South African language such as zulu costs. From around 19 1732898 number of those films were made but in many cases there was a prevailing theme and a larger message one that would explain why the apartheid government with its policies of racism oppression and segregation would help bankroll movies that were made a stance a play for the entertainment of black South Africans the listening posts and your head now on the rise and the fall of the beast scheme film subsidy. This is the a year to cinema and so we have to black and cinema in south africa its boarded up and abandoned now but in its day it could see more than a 1000 people and it was much more than just a cinema it was a focal point during the struggle against apartheid a place where subversive films were activists could meet International Musicians could bypass the boycott on a part of south africa and perform for the countrys oppressed majority. And on the 1st of january 973. 00 it was the 1st cinema to ever screen a groundbreaking film called joe bullet starring a black named. Oh. The tons. Cost so we really like to put more people in the us. Is quite unique for the times because of apartheid no one was really considering producing movies or black cost members for black audiences. Became company. Is a kind of. A ladies man coming to the rescue of. Industries as well as you know those who. Investigate their venom and martial arts expertise. Black character james bond kind of guy they wanted to join the fight. So they can win the cup find. And you would be. Living in a in a nice apartment trying. To get all the sources of government didnt obviously want the joy of the population to kind of aspire to. 20 fundamental the writer and producer. That they premiered the film without approval from the apartheid sense so it was bad off to just 2 screenings they say that. The law in its own hands. The sports station theres clearly like it here. But these are. Fundamental says that the decision to ban trickle of was eventually overturned but by then it had lost its momentum and would never recover. While the form was ultimately a commercial failure the response from black South African audiences convinced from the man and his fellow filmmakers that there was a huge demand in the country for this kind of content or what they also knew was that without the apartheid governments approval these kind of films would just keep on getting banned so they had to make a deal. And there was already a template in place nearly 2 decades in 1956 the part take government created a subsidy to help grow a national Film Industry for White South Africans the films had to have. Dialogue in bytes of African Languages and typically they would promote the White South African way of life. If that criteria was met then the filmmakers would get money back based on ticket sales they called it a skin film subsidy. 97320 fundamental. Subsidy films with black costs for black audiences in their own languages. And theres a reason why the a part take government went along with that. The idea behind the subsidy itself was. We created a vehicle through which to entertain the masses that would keep their minds off of political unrest i know what divides moralizing the leisure time of black people because if they are not occupied they get up to all kinds of mischief. And. Secondary benefit. Class was of course the kind of ideological value that the part that they could get out of it. Partake of and sort the propagandistic value in the. Storylines that government favor in these films that i would love to put in. The good will always win over the evil as i was a crime doesnt pay. And another thing is i wanted to bring that idea to the black people that you should go to stay thats your place and come to the white. Ringback homelands were. Typically under service to end poverty stricken allocated to black South Africans in the apartheid era and that seemed that once your work is done in white Southern Africa you go back to the supposed tranquility of the homelands were so prevalent in the film that the drama would come to be known as the home nation. With. The urban centers what ways portrayed as danes of 5 black people and black people were portrayed as morally weak they always succumbed to the evil on of the. The law. Thats the current spin off on the back to the homeland i dont necessarily agree with the notion that that they were purely propaganda driven kind of films a large amount of produce filmmakers who are just making movies for the sake of making movies and they actually can operate the sound guys they were the performers in. One of cameras rolled back. To kind of do a blanket brush across it saying that thats what it was all about i think is not a Fair Assessment of actually what happened before my cars. Catered to what. They knew the things aboard would approve of but with no. Model like. They were acting authority in a same for the apartheid state and one can understand that i mean im not saying that as a critique necessarily because one can and that they love the part that you know and they lived in a particular time when they knew how they wold was bonded and they stayed within the boundaries very few overstate. Like they seemed to be steam subsidy was apportioned based on ticket sense however at the time there were only a handful of cinemas that catered for black audiences and certainly not enough to support the industry so the b. Scheme filmmakers created their own distribution method my boss in the us but they sent out to the townships and set up in schools churches and fields anywhere they could screen a from what i enjoy that if from you the. Towns it was like mind a circus coming to town really excited one of the side that the kids books like that and amazing i think because the photos were shot mine is a truly i love the time. We welcomed it in that came our way it does movies for us it wasnt attainment never said it will because those are open when you know what the movies coming from is only the no where we realize that this. In 1909 crippled by sanctions the cash strapped to partake government abolished. The piskies not least because many of the film makers were inflating viewing figures to increase their subsidies. Apartheid would also come to an end today very little is known about the subsidy official documentation has mysteriously disappeared and so have many of the films leading opinion divided. A block from the South AfricanFilm Industry to pave the way for many black South Africans to enter. The films propaganda their last heritage. By modern standards the films havent aged well but the story behind it tells us a lot about the history of south africa. And finally back to china the trade war that we touched on in our lead story and a state sponsored rap video thats been making the rounds online the band is called cd red short for chengdu revolution and its backed by the communist party of china now it is not clear if President Trump is a rap fan but this song was definitely written with him and western audiences in mind given that the lyrics are delivered in english and subtitled in mandarin this particular video focuses on the trade war with the u. S. Currently being fought over huawei the Chinese Mobile Phone Company now its racking up millions of clicks which is partly down to the size of the huge Chinese Market and the fact that state run media are big supporters of cd ref and that has an effect on the numbers but these rappers are a bit of a joke with chinese listeners many of whom you can find on social media platforms like way bowen uku a vis arranging them for a singing beijings tune well leave you now with a little taste of the video and well see you next time here at the list. Just. More a 3rd truck one too far. To see a baby be the new car for. Your data your identity is a commodity and we have to understand where im going to come from our sleep its time to reclaim our cyber so we have to put in them with something that cannot be sold we are creators we are archivists we are. Give us back our data. Capturing a moment in time. Snapshots of other lives. Inspiring documentaries from impassioned filmmakers. Witness aljazeera.

Is widely interpreted here as an indication of a partys waning influence. According to the results as a now my competitors in the race i congratulate him and wish him good luck. 30 the 1st. Defeated his wife will by a narrow margin of party contested the outcome claiming that some of the results. Werent ratified by Election Officials the higher election board ordered a reelection undeterred by the decision it. Held multiple rallies reminding his supporters that their victory was stolen by our Party Moments ago none of the democracy has won justice has run our people care about democracy i congratulate the future president of the country who told our papers we increased our gains by having more votes from the uk Party Supporters which means theyre also disgruntled. The new mayor faces the delicate task of running the countrys biggest wealthiest and most populous city but his supporters already see him as the right person to run against president. In the 2023 president ial election although this is a local election its all to come is likely to shape the future of a party which faces a deepening crisis. And people across the country all agree jewellers ruling party has failed to fix our economy in tatters. Its the ball now sudans military agenda has dismissed an ethiopian plan for a transition to civilian rule the opposition backs the proposal that the military says it doesnt correspond with another body present put forward by the African Union for him how it has. It was seen as a possible breakthrough but how it was after saddams opposition accepted an ethiopian plan to bring stability to the country with the proposal of the Transitional Government said by the military and protest leaders the military gentle voice its reservations i would have had. We have received 2 separate proposals to study from ethiopia and another one from the African Union but what weve agreed with you and if you know what is one combine proposal to be presented to us and to narrow gaps between points of view. Analysts believe this plays into a tactical move by saddams military to stall the decision i would characterize this as classic delay tactics and weve seen this before from the previous regime trying to play mediators off against each other trying to buy time trying to have these sort of circular conversations that ultimately end up going nowhere. Details of the a. U. Plan were not immediately known but the ethiopian plan proposes the formation of a 15 Member Council with 7 civilian representatives 7 military members and one impartial person approved by both sides in previous talks both parties agreed on a 3 year transition period and the formation of a 300 Member Parliament with 2 thirds of the lawmakers coming from the protest movement but the major Sticking Point was who will lead the main Decision Making body the Sovereign Council and so the talks collapsed. And the brutal military crackdown on sudanese activists outside headquarters resulted in dozens killed theres been an internet and media blackout since then. Weeks later if european mediation began with the Prime Minister ahmed visiting the country and meeting with both the military and the opposition but hes now distracted with his own domestic issues following a failed rebellion attempt at home. Protest leaders say theyre still cautiously optimistic about the theo paean plan but in the meantime the protests continue. Chants can still be heard on the streets at night calling for justice and a transfer of power to civilian rule for him mohammed al jazeera. Well now ethiopias government says its back in control of the Northeastern State of off to a failed rebellion 4 people including the countrys army chief of staff were killed in the attempted power grab that was led by a high ranking military official they are holding has more from our us about. Ethiopias army chief of staff general Sahara Mckown and seen here in august of last year he was shot and killed by his bodyguard inside his home in addison abba the general was in the process of responding to reports of a coup in the northern im heart region the message this attack was against the people and the government and all of its armed forces this was also an attack against an entire country everyone in the military and the public should strongly oppose this attack and those who are behind this will be brought to justice and i call on everyone including those in the military to cooperate with the investigation as it began on saturday night nearly 500 kilometers away in behind dog one of ethiopias 9 autonomous areas witnesses reported hearing gunfire the reagents president had been shot and killed in his office along with his aide this was the crisis general mckiernan was responding to back in the capital when he was killed Prime Minister ill be a appeared on television to condemn the attacks and urged calm. One dont want to see as in the people of if you have proved that its possible to remove dictators with a unified and democratic struggles in past years the people of ethiopia have with a unified voice showed that they will not accept governments that have the attitude of dictatorship. He said a high ranking military official general awesome a new sygate was behind the attacks and that he had used what he called mercenaries in my 10 hour day despite. Himself. Because. It so happens that the guy who is accused of looting the cool. That he was in prison when he came to power for school he was he tried at them to. And he was in prison so. Security in the region trust him maybe hes in his loyalty there was an assassination attempt against the Prime Minister himself exactly a year ago 2 months after he came to power a grenade was thrown into a crowd of 10 in a large rally for abby more than 100 people were hurt ethiopians had braced for a government crackdown which had been the norm during previous governments but it never came i think the government in the. Issue. It was an assassination attempt against the Prime Minister. And you know significant. Opposition against to be here africas youngest head of state has brought in sweeping reforms during his 1st year in power he ended a 20 year border dispute with neighboring eritrea released thousands of Political Prisoners opened up the media and gave half of his cabinet posts to women in recent weeks hes been mediating the crisis in neighboring sudan but some have argued he may be moving too fast they certainly is an attempt to. Bring maybe back some of the old guard the government has shut down internet all across the country in the wake of the attack no facebook no twitter people are mainly relying on state television for information here in the city and theres an obvious increase in military presence and some roads in and around the city are closed as the government and the people try to make sense of what has happened we are hardy and al jazeera. Well ali we spoke to alex vines he is the head of the Africa Program at londons Chatham House and he says the situation in the how in and horace state could slow the pace of reforms in the country this will be a warning to him and hes going to have to focus very much more on some of the domestic politics and thats going to really i think divert his attention from some of the very good things that hes been trying to achieve in terms of encouraging more political pluralism improving relations with the neighbors i mean he has recognized eritrea for example is a very good example of eritrea and ethiopia having a repression want so this will divert some of that intention and ethiopia is a super strategic country for the horn of africa and even farther neighbors power state is the 2nd largest f. Dic group in theo p. A it has had significant protests against the ruling the p. R. And this one of the things that i think was happening was that the president of an horace state was looking at the growth of local militias which were causing problems and we think that that was probably the reason that he was taken out and that was the posture in a state this is indicative of when you start to liberalize a authoritarian system i mean weve seen this elsewhere in the world other things start popping up and this i think is exactly whats happening in ethiopia my hope is that he will be up to still continue this reformist agenda and gradually deliver and then the tensions that were seeing in ethiopia which were very visible over the last 48 hours will reduce now a powerful as quake has shaken indonesias eastern provinces
