Passion drama competition private marketing numbers that is here to fight thats how International Law hate. Crimes fight and. Kick off on you tube joining us. To find cheap roll out matches on words as africa lags behind other continents south africa seeks to leave their way well look at how. Greece for a look at how your Summer Travel season has fared and one of the top tourist destinations in here is a pandemic. I dont know what malawi they. Green gold but the countrys Tobacco Industry is in danger of going up in smoke. This is day to day business im robots in berlin its great to have you with us 5 g. Is spreading around the world high speed mobile Internet Networks have already been installed across the u. S. In many parts of europe and in asia meanwhile in Africa South Africa is seeking to be the continents 5 g. Pioneer. The 1st High Performance antennas are already in place here in johannesburg one day theyll be pumping out super fast 5 and 10 it it can be used to control robots discover augmented reality and power the internet of things that is if the power itself doesnt feel a recurring problem in south africa nevertheless the operators are optimistic and so their figure for example your fixed font their traditions or this is. So what you find is that a number of these areas will not get fog. So far g. D. P. Should have potential to offer our Block Services in these areas. But the reality is still different large parts of the country still have no internet and 4 g. Is only white spread in the big cities the rest of the country is cut off from the modern telephony or enjoys only 3 g. Speeds 40. 5 little public seems to me. So when were talking about i see an iteration its great to be quite slow and middle only in the beginning they do the more i learn. With. You know like they can get a huge take on the news. Even if south africa hopes to pioneer 5 g. On the continent this technology will only reach a select few most of the countrys people live in abject poverty and this situation has only worsened the. Problem as i speak to our reporter Chelsea Delaney welcome along chelsea so well talk about the global fixtures shortly but in africa with 5 g. How much progress has already been made well very little so far we do have south africa beginning to roll out some 500. 00 services but its really the only place and africa thats been able to do that so far and really there are a lot of constraints or African Telecom companies its extremely expensive most companies have to invest billions of dollars and to the into building up these networks and in africa its unclear if theyll be able to get that money back because most customers arent going to be willing to pay the very high fees for 5. 00 g. Phones or 5 g. Service so theres really not a lot of incentive for them to be spending all of this money on 5. 00 g. Networks at this point meanwhile in europe it seems at times like 5 g. Masts a popping up all over the place for europe how much work is best. To be done theres still definitely a lot of work for europe to do there are certainly farther ahead than africa but they are certainly lagging places like china south korea the us that have been able to launch these very widespread networks at this point so there are about 17 countries and europe that have launched 5 g. Services but there are the coverage is quite spotty its really a patchwork of Different Services and theres still as in africa our constraints its the 5 g. Phones still are widely available theyre very expensive and thats not even talking about the industrial uses of 5 g. Which are expected to be really the future of this technology so things like connected factories Driverless Cars thats really where 5 g. Is supposed to be particularly useful and thats a much more difficult and a much more expensive. Way to go forward so theres still definitely a lot of work here as well when we talk about 5 g. We have still about qual way the United States and the fact that president Trumps White House doesnt want to european allies to be involving the Chinese Tech Company in their 5 g. Networks all european come countries are they are the heating that coal from america so there have been some countries in europe that have put in place restrictions on hallway france for example has put it has not completely restricted holway from its network but they have put in place some restrictions europe as a whole though has not wanted to ban holway they say they do you really want to diversify the suppliers some Telecom Companies are much too dependent on hallway they dont want them in their core network so they are going more towards Companies Like erickson or nokia which are European Companies but we havent really seen countries implementing large bans and in part going to really rely on what germany does germany is under a lot of pressure to exclude holway chancellor merkel has that she doesnt. Want to implement a blanket ban on hallway that they are expected to make a decision and the next month or so theyve said theyre planning to announce what they plan to do in september and that really what determines the future of holloway and your up we have seen countries changing their policies on huawei the u. K. Was one of them now its not involved at all and its. Any thanks for bringing us up to date. Now its been 3 months since greece reopened to tourism one of its most Important Industries of course the sector accounts for a quarter of greek g. D. P. With 33000000. 00 visitors a year in a normal year that is but 2020 has hardly been a normal year. Tourists are returning to sun to renie if spearing really normally the alleyways are full at this time of year but this summer many Hotels Remain closed there are few guest from the u. S. And china and most of the lucrative wedding receptions have been postponed until next year photographer demitra bratty is getting a whole new perspective on her and we experience something unique here because. Were sitting here for 10 minutes and nobody. Used all the photographers have their cup this year and they were waiting for queue to foot the so many local businesses have already written the season off for the tourists themselves the situation is relaxed. This is a strange feeling to be here and normally its probably. Its great as well to cry out. Fantastic. Its safe to holiday in greece prime minister. The country back in june and he promised extra doctors for the islands the Public Hospital in santa really has 5 new Health Workers and several intensive care beds luckily they havent been needed so far the left will mean. We have been tasting here since last month doing molecular analysis you get the results back in an hour. The mood is mixed among hoteliers. Runs an exclusive hotel which our family has owned for 30 years none of our regular guests have come yet she also sees the coronavirus pandemic as an opportunity a chance to rethink tourism wont be back for a couple of years for sure at the levels that they where so they should maybe concentrate on their farming and on the winds are on Something Else to make their economy more sustainability especially under any. Sustainability is the big theme right now in santa rini the Popular Island wants to limit mass to resume including cruises. It has Just Launched a new eco program. We hope in a couple of years were going to be a free plastic free island completely free from plastic. Were going were going not to use anything that is plastic. And even if we use it were going to decide that people on santas really want to steer to resume new directions for the time being everyone just hopes the infection figures remain as low as they have been among locals and tourists. To malawi now where tobacco is known as green go its cultivation employs more people than any other crop and its a major contributor to the countrys economy but Global Demand has been falling in recent years and the 2020 harvest is proving particularly difficult to shift. This is malawis main to bacco auction house in the capital a long way. Unlike in the past when the auction floors would be population with tobacco farmers this time no farmer is allowed inside. Authorities say this is to prevent to control the covert 19 pandemic. Capacity study a 35 year old father of 3 has been waiting outside for his tobacco to be sold but the price offered this year is low. To fasi grows tobacco in his village 70 kilometers outside the capital he obtained a loan from a Tobacco Company that enables him and others grow the crop on a contract basis. But capacity claims that it is the same company which buys the crop at very low prices this is left him with more deaths to settle. He remarked. Im not growing tobacco any more for me theres no future in tobacco farming i dont want to go into more debts as such i will embark on a different kind of farming. Teresa 10 wicca and is a Public Relations manager for Auction Holdings limited which operates tobacco markets in malawi she says new strategies are being put in place to ensure that farmers participate in the bidding process and benefit more from the crop. Well covert 1000. 00 has negatively impacted on Tobacco Sales she is optimistic the price will be better for farmers. We are thinking of doing more like i need it shouldnt be the same process but electronically where now the good the bias will be beating secretly but it will be displayed on a screen here in sight that the families will all stick with that able to witness what you can buy at present be on a particular bill and we think that in the long run that will also be beneficial for the family. According to recent statistics from the Auction Holdings limited current volumes of tobacco sold on the floors across malawi are less than those of last year during the same period. If the current trend continues it will affect the much needed revenue from malawi whose major Foreign Exchange earnings is dependent on tobacco.
