News. Thanks very much listening to the news room from the b.b.c. World Service with all of the Conway the un and the us have called it ethnic cleansing blaming the military in Myanmar for forcing range of Muslims to free Iraq and state into Bangladesh so what would the Pope say about the subjects when he meant by me to fact a leader in San Suu Kyi Well this is the relevant passage from his speech in the capital Naypyidaw the phone call rode in. The Abyss Iraq back to the future of Myanmar must be peace. Based on the respect for the dignity and rights of each member of society that respect for each ethnic group and its identity respect for the rule of law and respect for a democratic order for the neighbors each individual and every group one excluded top rights matter to make contribution to the common good then in the morning the pope on the 2nd day of his visit to Myanmar did urge the government there to respect human rights but as our correspondent Jonathan Head in yang gone told me it was significant that he didn't specifically use the term. That was what everyone was waiting for there were many rights groups who argued that he specifically should because the range of people themselves I don't if I would it for them it is a mark of acceptance of their legitimate existence here to use the term and it's the very reason that people in the Buddhist majority government refuse to use it arguing that they're not legitimate citizens or countries that carries a lot of weight and the fact that the pope's avoided using it I think many people will interpret it as him putting diplomacy and remember he is here to represent the small Catholic minority to print promote its interests as well before the principles of speaking out on what is a very sensitive issue it was a broad speech which did highlight the need for all groups to be included at one point he said The future must be based on a respect for each group and its identity. Respect for the rule of law and respect for a Democratic voter that enables each individual and every group excluded to offer its legitimate contributions some will see that as a reference to the Rangers who operate definitely excluded from national life and yeah but there was no mention of the name and indeed no specific mention of their plight either I think for many people given that this is the set piece speech of his this will be seen as a copout Angus and c. G. Touched on the issue is it possible that the pope has had tough words behind the scenes I think that's very likely to be fat How do you mention the word Ranger or made a big bold statement in public he would immediately have the anger of hardline nationalist monks and perhaps much of the majority here in the end the reality is Catholics make up a little over one percent of the population they are often vulnerable ethnic minorities up in conflict afflicted areas of the pipe has to consider that and that point has been made to him he may well find that the things he says in private could be more effective one interesting me she had was with a very hardline but extremely senior months ago who is on the psychic Council has said some extremely controversial anti Islamic and anti range comments so we don't know what he said in that meeting we didn't know about that meeting beforehand he has of course as you mentioned that his commandement online who is driving the military operation in Rakhine state which has caused such a massive exodus of refugees one can imagine that perhaps he said most of them we simply don't know as far as the public statements are concerned in his diplomacy before making a stand. In Manama have been celebrations sent cast around the stadium in Nairobi where the Kenyan president has been sworn in for a 2nd term on the Rukun yachts out there were the be in full sun. In sewer realizes of the high calling of the high Chorley I ask you as president of the Republic of Kenya I assume as president of the Republic of Kenya of the was parts of the swearing in the organ inaugural inauguration though was described as a despotic coronation by Kenya's main opposition Mr Kenyatta won 5 year term in a rerun of the general election last month after his victory in August poll was declared invalid because of irregularities the most recent vote was boycotted by the main opposition Mr Kenyon pledged the ceremony today to unify his country following the turbulent political events our correspondent in Nairobi Emmanuel it was at the inauguration after months of controversy and 2 elections president who cannot has finally taken his oath for 2nd term in office in what was a very well choreographed and colorful ceremony attended by thousands of people thousands more who came here from the early morning cannot access the stadium because it was just full to capacity the president has already said that he will be focusing on development on the economy in his 2nd term as president but he also faces a big challenge and that is unifying a very divided country now the opposition has say that it will not be recognizing the presidency of King Arthur because they do not believe he won fair and square in the election in October they have say that they will be continuing their resistance movement we've seen the opposition calling for boycott of some companies which they say are affiliated or have been supporting the government. Over there were clashes between the security forces and the opposition police fired tear gas at a rally where at here you can yet as long standing rivalry was trying to address his supporters. Mr Dacre for his part said that he would be sworn in as president of Kenya next month let's talk to our senior Africa correspondent and soy. What is the mood in Nairobi today it's divided on one part of the country in one part of a Robey people have been celebrating the inauguration of President Hu King at and in another part people have been gauged in running battles with the police they've been trying to access the venue where the opposition hope to hold a rally they say that the the we're going to mourn the death of their supporters who are allegedly killed by police but the access to that venue was blocked and so the they ended up just engaging in running battles with the police at the lists Thai is on the roads and you know businesses it's at this time steel and they received tension in the area now and by the sound of it Riley is going to continue his campaign. That's right he did try to go to the venue and he addressed people by the roadside and told him that just like the new Zimbabwe president and when it was sworn in so will he and he promised that he would be sworn in on the 12th of December which is Independence Day. And it's so it appears that he's campaign continues to to try and. To try and get into government he does not say whether he wants to share the government but he says that he does not recognize who are looking at and soil senior Africa correspondent live from Nairobi in a bit of news from Zimbabwe just coming in there's a barbarian president and some men and Gaga has granted a 3 month amnesty into the end of February 20 for the return of stolen farms the only airports on the Indonesian island of Bali remains closed in case mount a goon fully erupts The volcano has already sent a gas ash and smoke fowls of meters into the sky and the government has told more than 100000 people to move to safety our correspondent Rebecca Henschke reports from inside the danger zone I'm standing next to a sign that says Warning your entering into an active volcano has a zone in the village behind this song lane doesn't look to be too concerned it's still going on as a normal day as street sale is on each sunlight one of them that I'm coming up to now is selling the flowers for the offerings that the Balinese make to the Hindu Balinese gawds the man I cannot but.

So that's why I'm here I'm waiting to the last moment before I take refuge is there any feeling of concern or there are but I. Am quite nervous but I believe that what's happening is in the hands of the Almighty we've just inside the exclusion zone this radius of around 7 miles around the volcano or 12 kilometers that authorities are saying people should get out but he school is still carrying on as normal children singing songs in song night but they wearing. Them others outside the classroom say they're going to wait till the last minute before they evacuate and now they think this. Was in the back and not far from that volcano in Bali this is the newsroom from the b.b.c. World Service Gerry has I had lines speaking in the Burmese capital Pope Francis has appealed to me as ethnic groups to respect each other's rights here void using the voted using the term to identify the country's persecuted minority. President Kenyatta has said he worked to unite Kenyans after the country's disputed elections and the global economy is forecast to accelerate next year and grow at its strongest pace this decade and it's a merge the Argentine submarine which disappeared nearly 2 weeks ago left a final message before contact was lost in it the crew said seawater had damaged batteries a message and with the words will keep you posted I asked Max sites of b.b.c. Mundo what was now known about the fate of the San Juan it's the 1st time we really know what happened in the final hours. Of the submarine we have learned about the content of the last message that the submarine sent to base it's astonishing that these 2 weeks after it happened apparently the message was leaked to Argentine media and then it was Coke confirmed during a press conference by the Navy spokesman what the message says is that there was no water leak that damaged one or 2 batteries one course short circuit and that might have caused a fire there were a lot of smoke inside the submarine then maybe it's saying that this might been have followed by an explosion and that's all we know actually because now they are working on the I posses that submarine sunk further 600 meters deep and that might have Course done implosion of the submarine and that assumption means that everyone on board must be dead Yeah that's correct and the families are naturally very angry because as I said before they know more or less exactly what happened 2 weeks after the accident so they are really angry and are asking a lot of questions to the Navy and the government itself why is it only coming out now the Navy has been always very security in Argentina they don't like to share information they don't even like to share information with the government. As you know the ministry of defense the defense minister our of Argentina I learned about the news through the media so he wasn't directly informed by the Navy and that was 3 days after the accident happened so they have been really criticized because of this secretive way they manage information and briefly will they be able to locate the wreckage if this submarine dropped off the continental shelf it might be possible that they never will find it because it could after opt like 5006000 meters deep so if that happened it's likely they will never find the submarine back sites of b.b.c. . Let's get more news on the police in Greece have carried out early morning raid on a number of properties in Athens and seized a bomb making equipment a number of people who are of Turkish origin Well arrested let's talk to our your regional editor Danny Aber on what about these raids and these arrests Well we know that 8 men and one women have been detained and a number of materials have been seized the monks which the police are talking about detonators explosive materials or suspected explosive materials that they're doing tests on and also travel documents and things like this the people themselves are suspected of belonging to a group called The Revolutionary People's Liberation Front Now that's the left wing Marxist group in Turkey. It's been banned in Turkey and also banned in the European Union and the u.s. The timings of these arrests are quite interesting because President one is due to visit Greece. The date is still to be announced but possibly next week and that would be the 1st time that a Turkish president visits Greece in 65 years he had visited as a prime minister previously but he is expected to go there there's a lot of untag Unism between Turkey and Greece on some issues such as sign. Press and the extradition of soldiers the suspects of being involved in the coup but there's also lots of to be gained from trade and tourism and present and will be looking to cement those ties briefly why might Turkish people Turkish militants if that's what they are being Greece well like a lot of militant groups they often have different bases this this group might find if these people are indeed from that group they may find that they have a safe a base to operate there than in Turkey with the Turkish security services Danny thank you. A top Chinese general who's being investigated for corruption has been found dead at his home in Beijing the b.b.c. So you haven't told me this man was named John Young he was a 4 star general and he had a position right at the top of China's military he sat on a very elite a group of just 11 men who controlled the military and that group includes Chinese president c Jinping he was thought to have been you know a really high flying person his age suggested that he would be allowed to continue in the military and really be elevated to one of the very very top positions however he disappeared right before just a few weeks before China's key Communist Party Congress the biggest political meeting is in 5 years he disappeared right before that meeting and many people were shocked thinking what could happen to me here we thought he was doing quite well and he was in siege in Ping's good books but then it turns out it was just released in the state media today that General John Young is thought to have killed himself in his Beijing home which frankly raises a lot of questions we've also heard from the state media that he was under investigation for corruption for bribery he's thought to have owned a lot of property that judging by his salary he shouldn't have been able to own so there were lots of questions around him but I wonder why he was in his Beijing home usually when high ranking officials are put into detention by the party or by the military they're put into detention centers they wouldn't even be allowed to get near the active of killing themselves so it is a lot of murky things around the case of John Young today but briefly his disappearance part of the anticorruption drive from siege and think Well that's right dozens of high ranking military generals have been pushed out of their posts under siege in pink and replaced with with those thought to be even more loyal to see Jinping it's part of his modernization drive no one can argue that corruption isn't a big problem in China's military. But many people are surprised that this man in particular seems to have been done away with c Hatton 1323 g.m.t.

Children of the worst affected and there have been some deaths aid agencies say this crisis remains an acute emergency and in this environment a more serious disease could still take hold Rito Chakrabarti unmangled ash Hyderabad the Silicon Valley of injuries playing host to president trumps daughter Ivanka she's speaking to women entrepreneurs at a conference that but her visit has attracted criticism after street dwellers were rounded up before she arrived these women told us. What they thought about of on his visit oh isn't easy for this is all a noise she's got a bit of fine they're doing. And I like that when they're doing doing the noodles and oil but then it's not ninety's that. They make lives of dogs.

Fascination towards it and that's the word I can use to explain her visit because it's not new in India to see family members being groomed for agreed to political draw the businesses are hoping that it will bring in much needed investment and jobs in the state which is emerging as a new technology hub for India and that is a sense of and to going to some to what's the state government for a initiating of the harsh anti beggar drive and also to take stray dogs out without providing an old done it now Ivanka Trump is there to talk about women in business women in India sharing in the economic boom. It's interesting that you mention that because according to the recent a World Economic Forum the Global Gender Gap Report India has slipped $21.00 places to about $108.00 out of the $144.00 that means less participation of women in the economy and lower of the ages for them the number of women in the global economic summit to is about 52 percent this time down to a participating is what Ivanka Trump a tweeted and she said it's for the 1st time that one has seen a majority of women business leaders who are coming in but for the Indian women specifically this is a great event to showcase so that they have been able to achieve but the load brought is still much much longer to get to in $100.00 update on monies from Zimbabwe the new president has opened a 3 month amnesty for the return of public funds illegally stashed abroad at the end of the amnesty the government will arrest and prosecute those who fail to comply but for now from the newsroom.

We can cook with those cookies every place and then we can live with us we used to push for fishing beings even if we didn't even jello fries he would have spoke fish this ingredient it's transformed the identity and what is traditional in Nigeria the Norwegian and the Nigerian economy both grown because of stock fish in this area in the last what then is the biggest concentration of stock fish producers in the world and it's because we have the climate you need both cold weather and dry weather and you need sand we have everything here we are gifted from God stock fish is on salted Cod as we know we just call it it's dried and huge wooden frames outside in the crisp gifted from God of Norway dried until it looks like the box from a tree but it doesn't taste like it and several 1000 miles away in Nigeria stock fish is massively popular in fact it is now on an essential ingredient in so many cooking pots every blessid day over the next half hour come with me Victoria one Honda as I follow for the b.b.c. This intriguing journey of a fish from Scray to stock fish from Norway to Nigeria. In the spectacular fjord in the far north of nowhere and Metis went out onto the deck of a boat out for as the 2nd a limb glistening brownish goldish speckled beauties get hot all new is the fish. Yeah I said This cured is all of the most famous called jokes in the world every Yeah that's gray or dead they're called from the bar as he calls come in here and there like last year I could have 2500 kilo in just 10. What's so special about Littleton and the card found here. You have the right temperature right. It's perfect to breathe. When they come every year in the Tolson so. It must be perfect for them. That's another cause. How big is this one this is that see if they are over 2.5 can. It be in the price if it's over $2.00 You have to be. In the fish it's much better quality to get the blood oath to meet in the fish just nice yeah. First you take a knife there how do you like that. Oh my God this is conscious winged and I feel like this. Now I'm bloody I've got blood all over my trousers the mud close. And this is the heart it's beating and I have a tradition in my boat day. Where you the crew have to eat. Again I'm not falling for that one there is no way I'm falling for this I have to pass no thank you. Back on dry land in the Port of Seattle with the snow still big underfoot I made one of the biggest exporters of stock fish My name is Alan Farley I'm born here in Florida so this is the main city of the fishery in Norway you have a family business saga Fiske How did this I mean 6 in the ration it starts in the beginning of the 18th century as they bought fish and they they dried the outside and the rest still doing it in the same way in this area in life what then is the biggest concentration of stock fish producers in the world and it's because we have the climate you need both cold weather and dry weather and you need sand and we have everything here we are gifted from God. Sure enough Miss just go and see where you drive fish. You see here we have then. The rocks and then 10 meters high and the 140 meter long and it can carry about 300 tons So 140 meter long wooden structure that's just slightly bigger than a football pitch 10 metres high How do you get all this fish tank up on the rocks we have tractor and it's can lift 7 metre high but still it's hard work and the reason for the rocks are so high is because then we have more air so it will dry faster and dry better so therefore we raised it happened here this has been here for maybe one month and it takes we need to keep it here for 2 more months and then it will be ready. And you can hear how Dr they already won the heads up buying into giving. So we're looking at so many fish heads and so many fish tailed and so many fish bodies and you say $300.00 tons in terms of money how much is that it will be maybe in approximately 500 $1000.00. Everything here is for the giraffe like you Vera because that's a lot of fish. What is your biggest market always the largest market in Nigeria we also produce sound for Italy us London market we sound 200 or 250 containers to Nigeria and it's about 4000 tonnes so and if you convert it into dinner so it's and both 20. And 30000000 Then there's so and if you compare it to Italy and Nigeria by 10 times more fish than Italy or a 2nd market so it's. It's huge and also last years in Nigeria it has increased so it's getting more and more important for us this in that year and trade and I like it to Chris but winter Norwegian Air has for thousands of years ever since the Vikings created the ideal stock fish in more recent days as temperatures and where the patent structure awaits saga face cuz invested in indoor drying racks they used if heavy rain arrives when it shouldn't think Fox takes me inside the noisy and extremely smelly factory all you want to do something what is that. Then just sad feel that's your small part to feel that's the part you were just chewing you can try and is it something you know no salting No it's only natural. And I get it. It's not just it doesn't taste like fish though we use we see it as a snack. Instead of chips you know if we did I like it is traditional here and there is no way to eat it's their own people I know everybody has 7 times your protein so this is the best food. I am Victoria from the b.b.c. World Service Ok my name to get them going to tell you why in charge of the. Yes the country you have to you have to sort through all this mind do you decide which fish goes to which country it's depends on the quality we have a lot of birds here they can make damage for fish as stepping from the coral So for example I can ascertain where this fish is be 1st class and I can see that there are fish it's big damage or some bacteria and I can take a class number to do so which country gets plus number one if any of course why of course they want the best quality and we can sow damage and then we can send not so good not so best quality for gay are you know what does Nigeria get in the north right quality because of money they want also cheaper at fish but also they can they get good quality but they want more mix would you really send fish that has got bacteria to Nigeria No no if it's very bad in not sending it can be 20 percent 10 percent and just from the neck it's not so good program they can buy it but of course if it's very bad quality it's a lot of work there when we can send these dangerous for a healthy and do you ever get used to the smell of the fish Yes Yes For me it's no problem it's money smell. The smell of money so Bunton that it clings to the back of your throat and it is serious cash fish is Norway's 2nd highest and the stock fish that goes to Nigeria is a hugely important money subpoena a recent slump in the price of Nigeria's man export oil meant that the government restricted access to the foreign currency needed to import goods on the scrap coal through of course fight from Norway's seafood comes who explained to me how that affected exports to Nigeria. It was decided in Nigeria that they drew up a list of 41 products that were not considered to be really necessary products and unfortunately fish was put on this list and we saw that the people that wanted to import fish they were not able anymore to get our currency at the official rate and they had to go out and buy hard currency at the parallel rate and that meant that the products that were imported became going to have to 3 times more expense there since the price went up so much the people could not afford to buy so much anymore so from 2014 the value of the stock fish exported from Norway went down by approximately 25 percent and from 2015 to 2016 the export of stock fish from Norway went down with almost another 50 percent so exports haul that's a loss off that t. 1000000 u.s. Dollars but things have bounced back these e after the Nigerian Central Bank injected dollars into the economy prices have lowered and Norway's stock fish producers are now confident enough to try not just increase the Nigerian trade but also to expand into at the parts of West Africa what we see today is that the main import is in the in the south and in the south east but the stuff which is being consumed by all the people in Nigeria but in knots or so in large volumes so there is a potential to increase it further all over Nigeria. And then beyond Nigeria we know that there is also a potential in the neighboring countries maybe 1st of all there is a potential to Nigerians living in these countries and there is a small export of stock which from Nigeria to these countries like you can ruin and to been enough to talk about. But we have also noticed that the Nationals in these countries there the people in Cameroon they they have also started to like it and so there is definitely a potential in these countries and we are in the lead in discussions already with importers in common and we hope to see some some direct import of stock wishing to come rule in the near future from the Nigerians love of stock fish and that propensity to travel in trade as taught him to create more put unities for growth within the West African region but how on earth they've been my dearie and to start eating Norwegian stock fish in the 1st place under the brilliant winter sunshine in the shadow of a few award I found out from historian and author. We don't think they will never have been and in order. During 5600 years 80 percent of the income that we had came from quote stock of his so important was. Fishery that in $1310.00 in a region King his name was the 5th and owns that it was forbidden to bring any case to the court during the law for fishery it means from January to April it was basically because they wanted people to keep porking to bring in the income yes they needed the money so how did the trade with Nigeria come about it started with slave trading in Africa to achieve a 100 years ago. Then they use the stock official as food for the poor people from Africa who was sent over to America because they just took a fish to you can store it for 10 years and you can still think it was done we just carrying the slaves now they say they did and it was not. A big trade at this but I know one. Person in the. Sun and always. He will be very rich and he had a boat they used to transport slaves. And then he wrote he was very proud of his captain because nearly every one of the slaves survived it was not normal to have died maybe more so from slave trade to Mordor and De is still very popular in Nigeria it was not a very big market for many years when I came to know food and 40 years ago it was not that important and it forces only dried head not to made in a very good way but then you got a war in Nigeria and people in Biafra were starving and the Norwegian government used a lot of money to send stock official to Nigeria to help them starving people it was 50 years ago in 1967 that the Civil War The Frankie Ensign talks about broke out in Nigeria when the Republic of be Afro was declared in the east of the country . I in the course of 3 years more than a 1000000 people died mostly from hunger it was a humanitarian crisis of an unprecedented scale and it was the 1st time that churches and relief agencies from all over the world including Norway joined together to fly in emergency supplies among them Norwegian stock fish Edwin my faith grace and a man will take us back to those days I was 5 and of course by the time the war ended I was 17 there was a refugee camp or primary school where there were hundreds of families that's got my mom to take food to help the children and you look in their eyes and you just say like the same help me feed me I remember the budget eyes I just. I mean I can't even describe it they smell the. Most harrowing was the children that I was growing up with who died because they didn't get enough to eat there was a huge shortage of protein So those ones who couldn't get protein literally developed protein deficiency disease called question 1st the hair would change color. Become distended protruding and I didn't have question even though many of the other kids had a show called. Question or call is a very debilitating mountain attrition it was a feature of the war mainly because of a daily parade war policy to blockade where got food from agencies like Korea tires like Red Cross and they flew that to us and one of those for 2 meals that came with dried stock fish that was what actually shaped their mantra shown because stuff fish there was oil give us protein get was right to mince right in and did and it was used to provide soup. On that issue right it just blossomed You see I shall have it for today stomach this time of you gotta go in you see the flesh the flesh and just as soon as that was introduced it was like a magic it was handy it was it was thought they didn't require a few generation each time it comes it will jar so I do remember the salt that stocks it's. The egg yolk. It's. The green being species I personally like all those but I didn't quite like the put but I like the green peas the start finish the single weapon against crush aka the stock fish. Ass it is now a staple in major area and everybody eats it it's no longer seen as. A medicine. For years I didn't eat stock fish I will only just started it in starfish It's actually almost impossible these days to get it with the soup or the eastern Nigeria version if it was a soup with our stock fish stuff which tends to be the primary protein like goes with the igloo sea soup which is some kind of melon seat full of flavor full of vegetables full of different sources and it is really really really refreshing to eat existing Friday end of their day's work. And I have to say that they goose is soup Ed when my face talking about is truly delicious and it's clearly a relief for him to be able to eat it simply for pleasure and not because it's a matter of life and death in Nigeria today the stock fish arrives not by an emergency but by contain the ship as an everyday I tend. To have a. Soft come to a new bull market in the legless it's by the ports where the stock fish is brought to. Around me I can see all types of stock fish there are heads there are tails that's fines and of course. The whole board. And the prices can run from anything from $7.00 a head to $50.00 for a whole fish so what is it about stock fish that people.

The best part of this both fish is this whole fish body. The smell of the bundles of stock fish stacked had on the market stalls all hanging up in rows of the rows is the same as when I 1st encountered these age old delicacy it's powerful clinging and sometimes overwhelming but this scene in bustling Lagos it's heat and colorful that Paddy is a loud bomb to Couldn't be more different to the cold and white and fast space of Norway and it's amazing to see and hear just how important stock fish is to many Nigerians stock fish is one of those ingredients that I believe has been a great part of our identity in cuisine and food in one g. Or Michael a leg but there is a young chef a rising star in the Cullen reward has recently returned to Nigeria and his signature dishes all revolve around stock fish Welcome to my home kitchen I'm going to be making you something very special to me today we're going to be making a for a for is your bud delicacy it's a stew made with spinach you can use different types of leafy greens that we have here and or you can use a fork that you can use shock law one of the most important ingredients that we My grandma used to use in this dish a stock that when we got home and we smelled you know the boiling stock fish we knew that ground mice cook and you know when I smell stock fish there now style Jia my grandmother immediately kicks into my. And now we have our stock fish that I've been soaking usually allow this to sew for 2 days changing the water every 8 hours this is how we typically prepare it and get the best. It's very soft and delicate so it doesn't need to be cooked for too long. You can already smell. The richness. As a kid I I was never told that this stuff this was something from the whole way it was so common that I couldn't imagine it not being Nigerian I find. You know it was it was quite a shock I was in New York my roommate it was a Norwegian chef and there was like I'm going to show you good and I'm going to I'm going to have. These of course no. Manager is just better but I said I'm going to cook you know injury and food and I got home I was getting ready to cook and it looked just like oh yeah this is nice you're going to make it more familiar to me by use in the region stock fish like what do you mean. It was a fun the realisation that something that I thought of as very one jury and a surprising realisation how the Norwegian economy and the one German economy have both grown because of this ingredient people will ask what is it about these fish from a cold land app in the north of us that is so so so good that it makes it so popular in this country Nigeria where a culture that appreciates very strong flavors stock fish has different categories but the ones that we get. The very very dry ones that are very strong in error and flavor and that is something that goes with other ingredients that we use in cooking so for instance the fermented locust spin is a very strong pungent and flavorful ingredients so is the stock fish would you say that the stock fish is so entrenched into the one jewelry and dishes and food that people just. Have to have it no matter the cost yes in certain parts of the country the stock fish are so ingrained in the way that they perceive their tradition and culture of food. Not having stuff it would be something that I don't think they would have stopped. And that we are. Right with this. That fruit.
