In that direction. Its notjust investments coming from the outside, in this regard, the us is investing in itself. 6. 6 billion as part of the chips act. This is a significant amount of money, isnt it . You have to put this in some context, though. Other countries, like taiwan, likejapan, like south korea, they been investing in their Semiconductor Industries for a long time, so this is the us finally playing the game of investing in this type of manufacturing which requires in most cases requires some Government Investment to defray the cost of these facilities which has reached Something Like 40 billion for the most advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing facilities, so government assistance here can be crucial to sort of making the facilities more viable commercially. Us treasury secretary janet yellen has wrapped up four days of meetings in china with a warning that the us will not accept new industries being decimated by chinese imports. During a press conference, yellen said us President Joe Biden would not allow a repeat of the china shock of the early 20005, when a flood of chinese imports destroyed around 2 million American Manufacturing jobs. When the Global Market is flooded by artificially cheap chinese products, the viability of american and otherforeign firms is put into question. And weve seen this story before. Over a decade ago, massive prc Government Support led to below cost chinese steel that flooded the Global Market and decimated industries across the world and in the United States. Ive made clear that President Biden and i will not accept that reality again. Lets turn now to the ongoing territorial dispute in the south china sea. That issue is on the agenda for leaders from the philippines, japan and the us this week. Theyre meeting in washington on thursday to discuss security and defence issues. Deborah elms from the Hinrich Foundation says the sharper attention to Regional Security may change how Asian Countries manage Trade Relations with china. The economic ties in this region are very strong. Both with the United States and with china. And so trying to sort out or disentangle security from economics has been a challenge. The us and china are trying to engage more on sort of other level as we have seen janet yellen as well being in china this week. Do you think there is an opportunity for things to move in a more sort of optimistic sort of pathway . Its a very strong economic pull, especially at a time when general Supply Chains are reshuffling. Its very strong to have Chinese Investment and chinese Supply Chains running through asia. And those links in fact have strengthened over the last few years, and particularly if we have a second Donald Trump Administration in the white house, the level of economic disruption is going to be severe, and i think for many governments in this region, they will have to make some hard decisions, particularly about economics, and Economic Security and where they want to place investments and where they want to welcome investments. Its complicated. Across north america, millions of people stopped everything on monday to view the total Solar Eclipse, with some travelling for days, creating a boom for businesses and tourism along the path of totality. 0ur north American Business correspondent, erin delmore has more. As the sun, moon and earth aligned, eclipse watchers shelled out and businesses cashed in. This years total Solar Eclipse could deliver a 6 billion boost to the us economy. That is more than taylor swifts eras tour, and more than four times what the last super bowl brought in. Daytime darkness stretched from Mexicos Pacific coast, all the way to the eastern edge of canada, sweeping m us states, from texas to maine. Some estimated 4 Million People in the us travelled to view it, sending demand for hotels, resorts and campgrounds through the roof. Airbnb reported a 1000 a surge in demand in prime eclipse watching cities, and more than 30 Million People already live in the path of totality. So Small Businesses on the path seized on a mjor marketing event, offering eclipse themed t shirts, dougnnuts event, offering eclipse themed t shirts, doughnuts and ornaments for sales. Cities staged watch parties and festivals, Major Airlines offered eclipse viewing flights. And nearly everyone scrambled to get their hands on specialty safety glasses. The Eclipse Tourism Burst is the latest shows of how travel has rebounded post pandemic and how people are willing to spend big on a new experiences. We wont see an eclipse like this in the us again for two decades. Administrators say high street fashion chain ted baker will cut around 250 jobs and close 15 stores in the uk. The Holding Company behind the brands uk stores, no ordinary designer label, fell into Administration Last month. At that time it had close to a thousand employees in the uk running its stores and an e commerce platform. Lets go to south korea now, where for the past few months, commuters in the Capital Seoul have been riding the worlds first driverless night bus. While self driving taxis are slowly becoming more common in certain parts of the world, autonomous Public Transport In City Centres is virtually unheard of. But, is it all its made out to be . Nick marsh took a late night ride on the streets of seoul. Midnight in seoul. And theres 1 million worth of technology cruising the streets. Welcome aboard the autonomous bus. This is one of the worlds first driverless buses to get a public route through a major city. Have we started . Yeah, its exactly the same. Its like a normal bus ride. The driver is not driving. The drivers not touching the steering wheel. No, not at all. There are some caveats. Its a night bus. You have to wear a seat belt. And technically, there is a Driver Sitting behind the wheeljust in case anything goes wrong. The funny thing is, i thought that seeing that would panic me, but it doesnt. Theres been a couple of moments when hes had to take control of the wheel. But by and large, this is as smooth as any regular bus that youll take. Its only a start, but the buses creators say that its the perfect solution to solve transport issues. Translation there are fewer people who want to drive buses, especially at night. So we hope these cars will fill the void. One day we wont need anyone at all to operate this bus. Do you see, one day, every bus being autonomous like this . Translation of course it will change and it has to change. These late night travellers seem to enjoy themselves. Since theres also a bus Driver Sitting at the front, i feel a little bit more safe. Translation its a late night bus so it can ease the burden i on the bus drivers. South korea is one of only a handful of countries to allow Autonomous Vehicles on its roads. And its already spent hundreds of millions of dollars to advance the technology. But as i found out. Be carefull. It� s still a long way from being perfect. The view that Autonomous Cars are our future is sheer Science Fiction and nonsense. On the street we have dogs, children, weather, and technology hasnt yet sorted all of that out. That may never, ever be solved. South korea is showing that driverless Public Transport does work, but only in limited circumstances and at considerable cost. If this is an infrastructure that will make cities more efficient, then theres still a long road ahead. Nic marsh, bbc news, seoul. If you are planning a move to spain, this might affect you. The country is scrapping its so called Golden Visa Programme that granted Residency Rights to foreigners who made large investments in real estate. Prime minister Pedro Sanchez hopes the move will make housing more affordable.

More business use at the same time tomorrow. Bye for now. Business news. Hey. I am stephen with the catch up. Tonight, cody fishers murder, and epic eclipse and a very bumpy landing. Were starting with the 23 year old footballer who was stabbed to death on a night out. Cody fisher was killed at a club in birmingham on boxing day in 2022. The court heard he was targeted for brushing past remi gordon two days earlier, who you can see him acting out the stabbing in a pizza shop afterwards. Today, he has been sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 26 years. Kami carpenter who the judge said was most likely responsible for Stabbing Cody will also serve life, with a minimum of 25 years. Codys mum said he was brave, fierce and the most genuine soul and has this message for anyone thinking of carrying a knife. Weak, pathetic cowards. Thats what i say. And they have ruined so many lives. Next, something that doesnt happen very often, a total Solar Eclipse. That is when the moon perfectly blocks the sun and the sky goes pitch dark for a few minutes. This is in mexico where people got the first glimpse. How cool is that. Millions across america get to see and crowds gathered to get a front row seat. Its unlikely we will see it in the uk so the bbc news website is probably your best bet. We are going to leave you with ten seconds of a very hairy landing. This was a plane coming into Edinburgh Airport during storm kathleen over the weekend. I am not usually a fan of clapping when the plane lands but i think that pilate really deserved it.
