And cry playing trumbo and smile photo magical images and big emotions to know us fold she knows the magazine every weekend on d w. Thanks welcome to this weeks world stories. One hundred years on the russian revolution. Eastern germanys dwindling population we begin in the South Pacific on the fiji islands rising sea levels are threatening low lying areas and coastal erosion is widespread its especially hard for the village of the saudi. Women recall goes out fishing this has become a familiar sight. Emptiness. Youre used to. When i was small i usually went out to sea with my grandfather and father but we didnt have to come as far out as we are now we would only go as far as the closest reefs get a good catch and then go back now its different we have to go from one reef to the next because theres nothing that the sea is getting warmer well we did that was. To me. The changing climate is also taking its toll on. And recalls the village. The sea level is rising and the savi is slowly being swallowed by the ocean. The salt water makes the soil and fertile leaving behind only sandy barren land that also corrode the foundations of the houses. Eventually the villagers have no choice but to give them up. When we built our homes we thought we could live here forever and i never thought of such a thing as Climate Change and that it could impact us like this and so quickly and now were seeing what it can do its really sad for everyone in the village. I dont know why. Over a bowl of cava a traditional mildly narcotic drink in the pacific they discuss their future. Just a few hundred meters further up in the hills theres enough space to relocate the whole village permanently but most of the villagers refuse. To them the land they live on is sacred. It is these stones they cherish they mark the original home of the first chieftain to rule over the whole island and large parts of eastern fiji some two hundred years ago because of tribal wars he himself was forced to leave but he sent the villagers ancestors to keep watch today his successor lives on a different island but the villages obligation remains. At the use our military we were supposed to be relocated to and but we said that we cant move because first we have to consult our paramount chief. We asked him but he didnt agree to the relocation. He told us we had to stay here because the duty bestowed on us is of great importance. Ok with anything that. And yet the rising seas might leave them with no choice but to abandon the sacred place. For the people of. Climate change is more than just an abstract threat for them its real and they need real answers before their home is lost forever. It was a revolution that brought down imperial russia and shook the world one hundred years ago the bolsheviks seized power in St Petersburg and the soviet regime was born. But celebrations in putting this russian have been muted. Reviving the spirit of lain in a park in St Petersburg a dozen young men and women are celebrating the one hundredth anniversary of the october revolution an era theyve only read about. Theyd like to turn back the clock. So so use the absence of the soviet union as only temporary and with the russian tricolor wont be our flag for long but our red communist facts will fly again. Even though our country has taken a giant step backward im sure the triumph of socialism lies ahead thats our countrys only future. Thats exactly what russian revolutionaries thought when they stormed the Winter Palace in St Petersburg one hundred years ago. Bloody leaning proclaimed a new world of socialism. Seventy four years later the soviet union collapsed leanings personality cult became a joke the leader of the worlds working class now were tourist attraction at red square. A hundred years later i said the revolution was wrong. That any democracy is not good when a country has a czar there should be a revolution you know what is it that i buy a. Russian officials appear ruffled by the celebrations. Its been a long time since parades were held at red square. Todays kremlin officials are making sure that their historical narrative prevails official historians interpret the october revolution centennial as a dangerous inspiration for new protests are seeing which way its russia needs to look at the revolution differently the tragic events that led to the breakup of our country and huge losses should serve as a lesson for the future so that Something Like that you can never happens again at the offer by any of us a russian population united in support of the kremlin thats the leaderships a vision the goal is to regain imperial strength. Yes to a strong russia no to another revolution one hundred years later leanings etiology is not in the kremlins playbook but consolidating power certainly yes. The problem of rural population is not exclusive to germany but this issue asian and eastern areas of the country has long been viewed as critical villages and small towns are facing a struggle to survive debate continues about what to do. The town of keats lies in eastern germanys region and is in a state of decline the streets are lined with abandoned houses their former inhabitants have either passed away or moved to big cities there are hardly any newcomers nearly no stores no schools despite the financial incentives being offered businesses have avoided this place modern Companies Need a Broadband Network but that will be installed for another three years the mayor of the neighboring village of godso also complains about immigration to the big cities but function says he still has hope as some families want to stay. Long children are the foundation of any village i think the village should. Think of its children when formulating policy and give them a future having a kindergarten or a school can sustain a village. Of eighty children now attend the local kindergarten the School Next Door was supposed to close due to a lack of students but two years ago some Refugee Families moved to god so now the school is back in business the village has just a small bakery its the only place that sells food and its only open for a few hours a day. The supermarket here closed years ago frank has lived here since childhood and he wants to stay you know off kind of involved with dos the bad thing about this village is that nothing is here. We used to have a butcher a supermarket a hairdresser a bank now its all gone theres nothing left but its bad and the young people go where they can get a job. As county commissioner of makah showed island ghana which mitt is the highest level politician around he wants germanys new federal government to invest in local villages but he feels this money should be used strategically. Your thought up the money shouldnt go into subsidy programs that would build the fiftieth or hundreds of Village Community centers we need good infrastructure that connects rural areas with metropolitan water. At the moment only five buses a day connect these villages with the big cities nearby but thats not enough to convince young families to move to the scenic order valley and tourists arent interested either.
