The police have fired tear gas last protesters in the most violent worst violence pardon me in hong kong in recent weeks and some demonstrators were vandalizing shops and setting fire to metro stations chinas main state news agency was also attacked as to vehicle pollen reports. The question in hong kong nowadays isnt whether protesters will be on the streets but rather which ones spell take over coming up to the 5th month the weekend demonstrations these latest protests brought several districts to a standstill. On polling want to argue nobody wants to see violence but who is forcing us to come out a march its also called chief executive and so i came out today as i hope the people of hong kong will not forget that course things have changed the demonstrations used to be so peaceful the days protest started as an approved rally at Victoria Park attended by thousands of people the gathering was led by Democratic Candidates standing in local elections later this month the protests gained traction after democracy icon joshua wong was disqualified from contesting the election a move he calls politically motivated but the demonstrations soon turned violent when police blocked protesters from marching into the streets and set up a cordon to prevent others from entering the park. Less than an hour after the rally began tear gas was fired sending people scrambling protesters shut down main roads and took over Hong Kong Central district you can hear the sirens in the distance and the air is thick with tear gas and smoke but that isnt putting up any of these shows have heard hundreds of them are gathered here in one khans main a Financial Center a place that is usually teeming at shoppers during the weekends and tourists instead the protesters have taken over the street the building barricades set up public objects on fire and are waiting for the police to come here and they came in large numbers firing tear gas and pepper spray this person in the protesters in all directions they kept with their philosophy the water to recruit and disrupt other parts of the city protesters vandalized the offices of the state run shin one using agency widely seen as the mouth piece of the Chinese Communist government.

We dont know about the movement and were not be able to count us what with the mounted yet we insist on you not we here we fear that this could be our last chance. But for now the standoff looks like it will continue despite months of street protests beijing looks set to harden its towns all the activists are showing bell take to the streets for as long as they can they be gopalan ajah 0 hong kong. But the mountains of central asia are home to a variety of wild animals including Snow Leopards conservationists say their numbers are increasing again after kurdistans government imposed a strict moratorium on hunting abdelhamid reports now from the secu. Every other day they set off a dawn to scour the surrounding mountains volunteer rangers from nearby villages and the hunt for poachers record them grouper used to be a lot of poachers thats why the number of animals was decreasing almost didnt see any in the mountains and we noticed that and it was scary so we started to work so now were protecting 42000 acres the mountains of kyrgyzstan our home to some of the riches variety of wildlife in the world including the boers deer and ibex and the much elusive snow leopard which lives on the peaks the cure just call it the spirit of the mountains and then the most sought after for its fur meat and bones used in traditional medicine. Was saved as a cult the mothers poor was caught in a trap she was voted in abu century one of the largest for these wild cats in the world and remains here since more than half of the territory of kyrgyzstan is potential home to Snow Leopards they live and protect the mountains of central asia the tension here the power. And theyre all interconnected and those mountains provide water for nearly half of the worlds population. Under stand more of these animals conservationists are using modern technology about 40 heaton movement triggered cameras are placed on top of the mountains for 6 months at a time they cover an area of 900000 square kilometers the thousands of pictures taken revealed a lot about these animals daily habits this one with the tail up is marking the rock its hard to use by no cliffs and find them youll find maybe their parking marks on the snow but. But without technologies you cant work but this naps and videos also help estimate the number of Snow Leopards living in an area each cat has a unique pattern on its fur similar to fingerprints for humans there are police 350 living on the peaks there probably more which is a significant improvement since the 1990 s. When pushing was rife thats why newry do you know yet one supporter himself says this important to keep on patrolling the mountain its limited lot of. Talk now we see days and other wild animals again villages joke with us and tell us to stop it because wild animals are eating their crops or the pictures tell us you used to be one of us why did you change sides but its good now tourists can come here and see the animals. Its a fragile ecosystem the survival of one animal depends on the survival of others and in this impoverished country while left protection has also become a source of income but at the aljazeera kyrgyzstan.

Trade negotiations and fears of an escalating u. S. China trade war are likely to dominate day 2 of the sea and summit in bangkok members of the Southeast Asian bloc are hoping to finalize a major Free Trade Agreement led by china that includes 16 countries thomas parkss from the Asia Foundation he says the impact of the trade deal so far is mixed. Obviously theres a lot of anxiety about the trade situation in the region and thats actually led i think thats put a lot of wind in the sails of the negotiations for ourselves but at this point yeah the impact is mixed i think look our set up is on the verge of being signed i think youre seeing these last minute you know sort of. Last stand negotiating points from india and from from others mostly from india i think that this means that were very very close either some sort of agreement by the end of this year or within a couple of weeks after that tens of thousands of iraqis have joined to the mass protest in whats the biggest uprising since the fall of the former leader Saddam Hussein in 2003 demonstrators in baghdad protesting about Economic Hardship corruption and what they call interference from iran and the u. S. Those are the headlines and back with more in half an hour next its fault lines. How much. The scale of modern slavery in the u. K. Is enormous were just seeing the tip of the iceberg the result of something called the modern slavery act im just. Punch someone in the storm by having Companies Need to understand that this is exploitation if it sounds too good to be true it probably is and there are some very very nasty people out there aljazeera investigates britains modern slave trade. And. Millions of americans have trouble paying for their Prescription Medication and. That includes type one diabetics. For them instore and is a life saving drug for somebody like me its like the oxygen that you breathe. It is like oxygen you know ive read except for mean i have to pay 340. 00 a mile for that oxygen. These diabetics are making the 12 hour journey to canada to buy cheaper and sort which just over the border is about 110th of the cost than in the United States. Youll hear all these u. S. Pharmaceutical companies they will tell you they have coupons they will tell you they have discount cards they are patient programs they have at all if i could go out to a shrink oh bonnie to think would be driving 870 miles. In the u. S. The cost of nearly every major brand name drug is on the rise. And for many people that means being forced to choose between Financial Insecurity or saving their lives. And what this bill means to me is her a for stable cancer it means im going to live longer but what is a pill costs this particular pill is going to be anywhere from 800 to 1100 dollars at any given time the way we pay for medical innovation today has nothing to do with rationality thats the most expensive thing in your whole so clear course oh its worth more than our car so. It is everything you do with profit maximizing in an environment where we require nothing of the companies in this episode of faultlines we investigate whats behind the skyrocketing cost of prescription drugs and how the hefty price tag is costing lives. There are at least 1200000 americans would type one diabetes an auto immune disease that has no cure. And once a person has it theyre often required to take insulin multiple times a day for the rest of their lives. Insulins and old truck. It was discovered almost a 100 years ago. But in the us the keeps getting more expensive. You have to leave the country to buy something that you need to live rats are being held hostage by these companies and by the us governments in our elected officials to pay a ransom for the president s line. Between 20122016 alone the price nearly double forcing Many Americans to search for other routes to access if. You have an entire bus load of americans coming to walmart in canada to buy insulin because just where they can afford it. Would be funny if it werent so sad a serious. I came from new jersey to minneapolis to ride a bus to canada to buy it for 30. 00 and i still think im here to save a life but after doing all that its totally impractical and sort of sad that at all its just something that required to live so i know its not last or. Is this different than the one you would get in the us it seems like the same exact to say that. 3. Weeks out through 3 got inflated i got nothing by nothing but a cloud over 3000. 00 for 9 vials in the United States you just got me 243. 00 inside i think its showing exactly why we have people dying in america and. On a weekly monthly basis we need legislation passed in america so that no longer people are going to be dying of a type one diabetes. And for many people going across the border to buy cheaper insulin is not a long Term Solution. Studies have shown that one in poor americans with diabetes have ration their insulin because they couldnt afford it and this can be a deadly gamble. No one knows this better than nicole smith hope whose son alex died in 2017. So were here today remembering alec and all the others that have lost their life from insulin rationing its its amazing to know that its you know he would still be alive today if i had known at that time 2 years ago that i had the option to cross the border to purchase completely affordable and so on. Its not just a bunch of people whining and crying about the price of insulin theres a true impact. My family was destroyed by this. I lost a child. And ill never have my ask my son back. In 2015 alec was diagnosed with type one diabetes when he was 23 years old. At the time while still in the kohls insurance alex insulin cost between 2. 00 and 300. 00 a month. But when he turned 26 years old under Americas Health care law he was no longer able to remain on her insurance. And without it the cost of his insulin shot up over 4 times i went to the pharmacy the 1st time without my insurance card and hand his 2 types of insulin his diabetic supplies anything that he needed to take care of himself cost of 1300. 00 a month. He wasnt planning on it being that expensive. So what do you do he went home with nothing. Because halliburton 40000. 00 a year as a restaurant manager he didnt qualify for government assistance. The cold believes alex started rationing as insulin because he couldnt pay for it were this made him susceptible to d. K. A. Or diabetic ketoacidosis a dangerous side effect the type one diabetes when the body doesnt get enough insulin. It starts shutting down your bowels which would why has stomach was hurting so bad and then itll work your way up your intestinal system and your intestine starts slowing down. And your kidneys start shutting down and and then youre along start shutting down. And then your heart starts to go. And as the heart starts to go. You typically go into cardiac arrest. Or you go into a coma. Use or having seizures. And its and its true greenlee painful way to try. Ella came off of my insurance on june 1st of 2017 and was found out on june 27th of 2017. So he lasted 26 days im sure. Hes handsome could. Turn smile and kind of look a little bit alike naser. Phones because. Nicole and her family learned that alec have been stretching out what little insulin he had left until his next paycheck. He was found dead 3 days short of his payday. What do you miss most. Is have you. On the big brother around you. Who do you hold accountable. I feel the Pharmaceutical Company is partially or are accountable i hold our our government partially accountable. Well myself partially accountable. Have found i should have seen that. And said there to protect. As a band. But ultimately the system felt like. Insulin is kind of a perfect storm of all the problems with our drug industry and all the public failure to regulate it meaningfully. Its a century Old Technology that was gifted to humanity by the University Researchers who came up with it and since that time prices have only increased for something that by now should really be essentially free. The reasons behind the high cost of Prescription Medication in the us are complicated. But one main factor is that the government doesnt regulate or negotiate the prices of drugs directly with Companies Instead it lets them set their own prices which puts the burden of ever increasing costs on patients. Our government has taken less seriously than some others our responsibility to provide affordable medicine for our people in canada and many countries around the World Governments are active purchasers and they say how do i get a good deal how do i negotiate for the best deal and the United States we simply say pharma tell us what you want and well give it to you. They can charge essential as much as any of us would pay to care for our 2nd our loved ones no constraints. No constraints on drug prices means that for Many Americans no amount of planning can prepare them for the cost of an illness. Stay in the r. V. Were joined. In 2015 and just 50 years old jackie trapp was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called multiple myeloma keep it pay it. A tricky Little Cancer and because its a blood borne cancer surgery is not an option radiation is only palliative its really just to make you feel better drugs are all we have her doctor prescribed revlimid an oral chemotherapy drug manufactured by the u. S. Biotechnology Company Celgene and thats just and it has no generic in the United States. Revel may quite simply is the only form of treatment available for me for my cancer. Revlimid has kept jackie cancer stable for the last 4 years. But the bills to pay for it and her Overall Health care have shattered her Financial Stability the 1st 1. 00 i got was january 6th 2017 and the total member responsibility right here is 11140 8. 14 and then i got the 2nd bill january 30th and that one was 412039 dollars and 89 cents total member responsibility and heres a real weeks later 3 weeks later here we are a bill for 1212000. 00 is your responsibility yeah this must been terrifying though while youre fighting. Cancer in a period of 6 weeks you get 3 bills for the one drug that may extend your life and its looking like its going to be you know over 12000. 00 a month. I can honestly tell you that when i was diagnosed you know there are some tears there but i cried hard more when these bills came along ive spent so much more Emotional Energy on finding ways to fund my treatment then i ever have my cancer. At 1st jackies insurance didnt cover revlimid has been saying well we can do this ill sell my truck you know what that old bell give us the money but im going to be on this indefinitely this is not a solution we need a longer Term Solution im
