These air quality issues have now pushed campaigners to file a civil lawsuit against the indonesian gov but their contention being that the government has been on able to maintain the air quality we speak to one of those involved with the lawsuit in a bit but 1st this report. The disappearing skyline of 2 kata the new normal. These hazy skies are coolest by a toxic cocktail of pollutants in recent weeks absolution level have dramatically risen to almost 5 times the recommended levels. To counter this suffocating on dirty air linked to its heavy traffic and coal plants. Researchers say absolution can shorten Life Expectancy and cause disease and people here are worried face mosques have the common all too common sight in indonesias capital. That there are numerous changes personally i experienced breathing problems when going outside without wearing a mask like i thought that was how i tell them i guess i can see this is i personally i get very short of breath. Im also concerned about the Long Term Health effects is that when youre on the bottom that very bad if theres no action taken to reduce the air pollution it will certainly. Get about a month that i mean without. Action is being taken now by environment activists who are fed up with the filthy air in the city and the threat that it poses. For you im very much arc of. Today the representatives of all people who care about their health and the environment and also the Health Rights for humans and jakarta citizens took the initiative to file a lawsuit against the government. One of the high profile defendants named in the suit president vetoed oh so far hes made no comment in the case. But this group hopes the historic lawsuit will attract attention to the plight of the 10000000 people stuck in a cloud of poison i dont ask for more is bond done on the we are no more hes a researcher im with greenpeace in jakarta more than welcome to the program what do you expect this lawsuit that has been filed to achieve. Yes lots of the experts there the government defies that aggression that we consider to be art and art of that we still using the regulation scene and in a deception i didnt think. We need to revise the regulation and we have in the government use more baseline that to make sure the best Success Story to take bigger better question what do we might be slanted. Because of the you know yesterday betting the meeting about the sources of that will set itself were hoping that. We are using. It in february that from year to year or 2 may sure to be a successful story of a government that bring them to the what this not only government of but also government of west point and went on to at least sitting down together and measure what is the source of where its coming from your area it just seems extraordinary you mentioned that this is from has been continuing since 199719092 did the governments arent clear as to what the sources of pollution are how does that happen yeah were really the only record when were less a book sources are in it so we just found. We said back in 2012 that mention the sources are at a pretty disposal 47 percent this competition and again we jump to not 2000 eminent did they release that now the sources of abolitionist 75 percent is competition which means we dont really have the sequence that the what is the source of that was and its probably years 3 years is that in the in the governments interest to try and rectify the problem trying to fused appear to be trying to tackle it from what youre saying it appears that the government is not doing anything wrong. They are doing something protecting the potion but only pushing them when issue of transport itself as we know that the data is that in 2012 many sources of that person itself industriously say stop us but only protest so regarding the way that tackling down the pollution we need to refer to those sources are of course itself right so we know the successful governments of packing the. Question on the number are no speaking to us from jakarta thank you very much for that. Thank you turning now to pakistan where high profile news anchor abbas was shot dead in Karachi Police say he was killed in a drive by shooting and that the motive was. This follows a series of incidents dogging journalists and muzzling of press freedom and just over 3 weeks ago blogger and anti military activist muhammad beloved son was stabbed to death in islamabad he was 22 years old last week geo t. V. Abruptly cut an interview made broadcast between me the media and former president Asif Ali Zardari hes under investigation for Money Laundering and his Pakistan Peoples Party has a tense relationship with the military and on tuesday night 3 pakistani t. V. News channels were suspended after broadcasting a News Conference by Opposition Leader miriam shes the daughter of former Prime Minister nevadas sharif whos now in jail on corruption charges and in the past twice ousted by the military so whats going on for more we have with us jilani from asia. To chat with you in a bit but 1st id just like to bring up what Reporters Without Borders said about the t. V. Channels being taken of they said this latest case of brazen censorship is indicative of disturbing dictatorial tendencies that was Reporters Without Borders shows good to have you with us is this what is really happening in Prime Minister brown khans not up artist on new pakistan as he promised when he took over last. Thats something i have seen over the last year or so increasing control of the media and journalists there is a media crisis in pakistan some of it has to do with the Business Model because they relied heavily on government advertisement but what is happening behind the scenes is more insidious its the government and army together working to silence critics so they switch off the advertising revenue and they tell multinational corporations not to place ads with certain newspapers but more and more columns are being censored and this is something we havent seen under civilian governments thats why a lot of my colleagues feel that this is probably one of the worst times for media in pakistan notions of you yourself to leave pakistan because you were facing these kinds of pressures what other things that you saw fast and so in this kind of environment when your journal is being taken off air without any reason journalists are being targeted everybody becomes cautious and what i saw was a lot of selfcensorship i was increasingly told not to touch certain subjects which was considered a critical of the military or the government and eventually basically did they went after mean they pressured my news channel to sack me this has happened with a lot of other colleagues and this kind of pressure essentially is very dangerous for a country because if you cant. Hold your government accountable you cant criticize their policies it takes us down a very authoritarian part and thats what a lot of people are worried about shows there gentlemen thank you so much for breaking that down for us. To neighboring indias capital delhi now where in addition to the Traffic Congestion and other civic problems delhi ites are having to contend with the new one monkeys the primates that hang about the city can make life hell for its humans he has a look at the front lines of whats become a daily battle over who will be the top banana monkey all men.

So thats ive been driving the monkeys into this neighborhood for 7 or 8 years and i use this special cool and lee avenue. That was as soon as they hear my voice they get out of the trees and run away. New delhi City Government has hired 25 monkey scares in this district where lawmakers and cabinet ministers live residents here say the number of monkeys just keeps growing. But if i do think the problem is the monkeys break into houses and steal clothes and food by the children the climb on to roof terrace is an annoyance and gets into the houses from the earth over the next in the order that many people in the indian capital feed the monkeys for hindus their sacred animals the monkey god hanuman is believed to bring strength and fortune but the well fed simians have been making their presence felt in government buildings they tear up documents and destroy equipment but the government has a plan to end the Monkey Business and a lot of the name of the government is providing 800000 euros to sterilise among his new dell is City Administration and has put out a cool for tenders but no one has signed up for the job yet so if you pay peanuts you get monkeys and friends now laxman kumar and his colleagues remain the 1st line of defense against the pesky primates.
