It keeps growing now steadily unfortunately every year while we are hard to taking anyone out of the statistics again last year for instance only around 300000. 00 refugees could return home that means one in every 100 refugees only the rain remember the rest remains is great it really has become quite desperate what we see is right across the globe now instruct so many people are losing their jobs particularly in the Informal Sector when trade is going down so its also there in Food Production and the cost of food is going up you no longer have an income so you not only exposed to cope with 19. 00 but also to much greater risk polity an inability to feed yourself from your family in other news a powerful lawyer who has prosecuted a number of associates of u.

Hes been betting that the return of football matches will send a message to brazilians that its time to get back to normal and back to work with local people but working in a movement is against the reopening of the championship its a fascist irresponsibility of the government which is not committed to helping people only concerned about the economy the game in arguably the worlds most football crazed country was played without fans inside while right next to the stadium at least 2 more people died from grown a virus in. Emergency tent hospital. In brazil the number of infections and deaths is unrelenting and with more than a 1000000 infections now confirmed former Health Minister luis indri commanded that tells al jazeera that the pandemic is still a long way from subsiding but i think that we are in the middle of the pandemic season we have a country really because we had some cities that really went through the problem was in the middle and other ones that didnt start here so i think that were.

Now a decision from china on whether to impose a proposed security law for hong kong has been delayed opponents are organizing an unofficial referendum with the aim of rejecting the bill if its passed a controversial legislation previously failed to pass through hong kongs legislature after a strong public backlash adrian brown has more from hong kong. Were in one tyson which is traditionally a place where people come to have their fortunes told in hong kong but of course knowing can predict at the moment when this new security law is going to take effect were outside a church a Catholic Church which has been turned into a makeshift polling station for this vote and workers are being asked to support a general strike now these workers represent you know people working in about 20 Different Industries here in hong kong not just that students are also being urged to support a classroom boycott now the results of this vote are huge at the release sometime over the weekend on the other side of hong kong on saturday morning we met people who are in support of this new security legislation their probation group and they maintain they claim that so far theyve collected more than 3000000 signatures in support of that legislation now that represents about 40 percent of hong kongs population now they claim that a lot of this support has come online these volunteers we met say that they were paid to be there but it does show clearly that there are plenty of people in support of this legislation but also plenty of people against it. Some of iraqs most traditional craftwork is at risk of vanishing as a nationwide financial crisis hits Home Grown Industries the government hopes prioritizing the development of its private sector will help its otherwise Oil Dependent economy simona 14 reports from baghdad since he was a child a bus car bomb has built traditional furniture from palm fronds his precise moves are the result of generations of expertise passed down from his father and grandfather but now the trade is a desk of dying out or not the more. My children havent learned it and they dont want to learn it my elder son abbas he tried but he prefers to work as a porter at construction sites. During saddam husseins time chairs and beds made of palm fronds where household item in iraq their mesh designs suited for a country summer heat but out of the 20 shops that used to be here only 4 are left cheap imports from turkey and china have eroded demand for iraq he made goods if you want to. Look at them one customer he came to me and said why do you sell the chair for 10 us dollars while the imported plastic chair costs half i told him this is different its traditional it takes a lot of if it and this is stronger than the plastic but they dont care about that. Last year government officials visited the market and in an effort to save it they plan to employ the workers in a state owned Company Similar to this one which specializes in producing handmade carpets back in 1980 s. Most of the factories output was shipped to saddams palaces but designs have hardly evolved to suit modern tastes and demand has dwindled. The goal is to preserve our heritage and to tell the world what we have in our country we are not looking for profit we are ready to lose money to promote our heritage as iraq slips deeper into a fiscal crisis sustaining such state owned companies could become increasingly difficult the solution to reviving traditional craftsmanship like many other sectors of iraqs economy lies not for much in Government Programs but in the private sector and there is one company in back of that that is trying to do just that. The selling point for this company is quality and the made in iraq label its workshop of a dozen employees who work on modern versions of traditional iraqi furniture. But convincing customers to pay extra remains a challenge and lowering the price would require scale and an environment that supports private sector investment. In my opinion the state isnt focused on industry. If it was that offer the rule materials provide land provide investment licenses often machines particular workers with the social or the new government has made private Sector Development one of its priorities but for craftsman like st is about to vanish such initiatives may come too late seem wonderful to aljazeera but.
