Of arson all day. And indonesias plans to move jakarta, the worlds fastest sinking city, to the jungle covered island of borneo but at what cost . Live from our studios in singapore and london, this is bbc world news its newsday. Good morning. Its 9am in singapore, 1 00 in the morning in london, and 8pm in new york, where stock markets have fallen sharply for a second day in a row. Investors are increasingly concerned about the coronavirus. The dow closed down by more than 3 again, and that comes after markets in asia and europe also fell sharply. We have asia markets reopening again falling this morning. The global total of covid 19 cases is now above 80,000. The vast majority are in china, where the rate of new infections is now slowing but theres been a significant rise in south korea. Officials say they want to test around 200,000 members of a religious sect, which is at the centre of the outbreak, as laura bicker reports. Save the people of daegu is the cry as the president arrives. Some in this city fear the government cannot bring the outbreak under control. President moon knows this is a major test of his leadership. Chinas handling of the crisis happened away from the cameras but south koreas is in the spotlight. Translation what is important is time and speed. There must be a clear turning point witnessed this week. But as the president was thanking medics on the front line, a leading doctor claims some staff are already at breaking point. And doctors are passing out from exhaustion. Translation we tried to attack this virus in a hurry. We need more doctors to conduct interviews and testing. We need to also find new hospital beds so doctors, supplies, everything is in need. The source of the outbreak is thought to have been a meeting of this secretive religious sect, the Shincheonji Church ofjesus. Leaders have said they have handed over a list of 220,000 members, all to be tested for the virus. But officials believe they are still hiding information and raided the church headquarters. Daily life in daegu is now about the daily hunt for fresh facemasks. The government is considering tighter quarantine rules but so far this virus hit region, unlike others around the world, is not in lockdown. But some are taking no chances and after stocking up, ms kim is quarantining herself at home. She tells me she is glued to the news to find out about the latest cases. She and her pets are now confined to this one yard for as long as this outbreak lasts. Laura bicker, bbc news. Mariko, here in europe, more countries have confirmed their first cases of the coronavirus, including austria, croatia and spain. And world health officials, who have just returned from china, have issued a warning to other countries, stressing that they prepare hospital beds, isolation zones and respirators, to be ready to respond quickly when the virus arrives. Around 2,700 patients have died from the coronavirus, the vast majority in china. For the second day in a row, us Financial Markets fell dramatically as investors continue to worry about the impact of the coronavirus on the global economy. On tuesday, the dowjones industrial average dropped more than 800 points thats around 3. 2 , on the back of a 3. 6 drop on monday. That is why we are expecting another choppy day in asia. Japan, south korea and australia markets are all open for trade and they are all down sharply. On tuesday, we saw japans nikkei falling by more than 3 , hitting the lowest in four months. The tricky thing for the japanese market is that the yen is seen as a safe haven currency so when we have some uncertainties, the japanese currency gets stronger and thats bad news for the countrys exporters because it makes them less competitive abroad. Lets put this into context, with the thoughts of our new York Business correspondent samira hussain. Many sectors are being hurt by it, in particular you are looking at airlines which continue to suffer, tourism, and basically any company that has anything to do with china. So if you sell to china, if you buy Raw Materials from china to make your own goods here in the us, all of those companies are being affected. It is a variety of things from apple to nike, to walt disney to american airlines, to united. It is really because what happens in china touches so Many Companies that operate in america we see quite a widespread impact. More on the coronavirus outbreak in just a few minutes. Lets take a look at some of the days other News Donald Trump and his wife, melania, have departed new delhi following a two day visit to india, which culminated in a summit with the indian Prime Minister narendra modi. The president , who was a guest at an evening banquet with modi on tuesday, said india and the us were making progress on a trade deal. Also making news today lawyers for the disgraced hollywood film producer, Harvey Weinstein, say he will put together a team of very brilliant lawyers to lead his appeal against conviction for sexual offences. He was found guilty on monday of a criminal sexual act, and rape in the third degree, and was then taken to this hospital under guard after reportedly falling ill. Heres his spokesman. I just visited Harvey Weinstein in what looks like a typical hospital room with a typical hospital bed pleasantly surprised that he was in good spirits. He was energised and obviously for any human being, yesterday was a tremendouslyjarring and shocking event. Many of you were at the court and saw he is not the picture of health by any stretch of the imagination. So i think it was just a precautionary measure to take him here and make sure his vitals and everything is ok. One of the biggest names in corporate america, bob iger, is standing down as chief executive of the walt disney company. Hes overseen huge changes at disney during his fifteen years there, including major takeovers such as that of twenty First Century fox. Kenya will ban the slaughter of donkeys from next month, after a huge fall in the animals numbers. The country intially legalised the trade in donkey meat and hide in 2012 to meet growing demand in china, but the government is now taking action as many in rural areas are reliant on donkeys to fetch water and firewood. Now, im sure youve wondered what a hippo wandering around a petrol filling station looks like. Well, wonder no more. This video was filmed in the town of saint lucia in south africa. It is showing a wild hippopotamus taking an evening stroll. It seemed to be attracted by the bright lights of the stores, but didnt cause any harm or damage, and eventually wandered back off into the bush. The indian capital, delhi, is witnessing its worst violence in decades as rioting between opponents and supporters of a new citizenship law escalates in parts of the city. At least 13 people are dead, among them a policeman. From delhi, Yogita Limaye reports for a second day, parts of delhi have descended into chaos. Areas where hindu and muslims have lived peacefully side by side have erupted in angen side by side have erupted in anger. This is the worst religious violence in thes capital has seen in a decade. This market has been set on fire. Most of the shops here we re fire. Most of the shops here were owned by muslims. We have seen signs of arsenal date while we have been on the road. Follow m o bs while we have been on the road. Follow mobs carrying sticks and stones just a few metres away. It began as clashes over citizenship law which grants amnesty from three neighbouring countries but not to muslims. But we are seeing now is a religious right and it has left people scared and angry. This isa people scared and angry. This is a muslim home that was burnt down. This man can barely hold back tears as he recounts how he and his family escaped angry mobs. We had tojump from roof to roof, he says. Less than a mile away, some hindu men come running towards us. Muslims are shooting bullets, they are throwing stones, they shouted. 0ne throwing stones, they shouted. One man died after being shot in the head. The grief of losing sons, husbands, brothers, shed by both hindu and muslim families today. Shared. As each hour goes by, the number of casualty rises. Ata the number of casualty rises. At a hospital, stretcher after stretcher being brought in. A woman whose husband was into colla pses woman whose husband was into collapses into the arms of a bystander. A sister whose brother was shot in the head, wheeled him into an ambulance. The government says the situation is under control, the street tell a different story. Lets have more now on the coronavirus outbreak. 41 countries and territories have reported cases, although in all but four, the figure is less than a hundred. But the world health 0rganisation, while praising the International Response so far, has warned that countries with weaker Healthcare Systems and economic problems could suffer greatly if covid i9 spreads to them. North korea, unlike its neighbours to the south and north, has not reported any cases. But the red cross has now asked for, and been granted, an exemption from the un sanctions so it can send more medicalsupplies, including masks and goggles. Kimberly brown is the head of humanitarian policy with the british red cross. I asked her how people on the ground in north korea have been getting on. They havent confirmed that there are cases but they have urgently requested fpr masks, goggles and other testing kits. There are 10. 4 Million People in dprk who are already in a severe humanitarian situation and our concern is that if coronavirus were to hit it would exacerbate a difficult humanitarian situation. You were there last year. What did you see and how are people coping . I visited for two weeks last year in pyongyang and in the countryside where i visited with my colleagues from the local red cross, i saw vulnerable populations. People who travel a long way to collect water, people who do not have access to basic sanitation and people also who do not have enough food. For us, we see the vulnerability for a potential coronavirus outbreak as concerning and that is why we put in this special exemptions request to the Un Sanctions Committee at the request of local colleagues to bring in what we need to be prepared to any with for any outbreak. That has been granted. How will that facilitate you . It is excellent that we have had the exemption request given to us and now we need to work to make sure we get those goods into the country. The preparedness to deal with such a Health Emergency is key. This is why it is important and why we continue to request to bring in humanitarian goods because having the stockpiles on the ground lets us respond. The north korean red cross are in the provinces, the four provinces closest to the chinese border where we have vulnerable populations and we need them to have the ability to continue their life saving work. I was able to see some of that life saving work when i was there last year. Is there any communication with the authorities . It is a difficult situation but are they helpful . Do they acknowledge what you are doing . The local red cross can co ordinate with the ministry of health and local volunteers to be able to work on basic hygiene, educate people in the case of a coronavirus outbreak. So we are please to be able to co ordinate with authorities there but really we need the supplies to be able to get through so we can continue our normal life saving humanitarian work and prepare for any further exacerbation of the situation. Youre watching newsday on the bbc. Still to come on the programme democrats debate in south carolina. How will the frontrunner, Bernie Sanders, handle the pressure . Also on the programme how to save a sinking city. The indonesian president s plan to move jakarta to the once jungle covered island of borneo. Prince charles has chosen his bride. The prince proposed to Lady Diana Spencer three weeks ago. She accepted, she says, without hesitation. As revolutions go, this had its fair share of bullets. A climax in the night outside the gates of mr marcoss sanctuary, malaca nang, the name itself symbolising one of the cruellest regimes of modern asia. The worlds first clone has been produced of an adult mammal. Scientists in scotland have produced a sheep called dolly using a cell from another sheep. Warren beatty and faye dunaway announced to the world that the winner of best film was la la land. The only trouble was, it wasnt. The mistake was only put right in the middle of gushing speeches by the team behind the modern musical. Not for 20 years have locusts been seen in such numbers in this part of africa. Some of the swarms have been ten miles long. This is the last time the public will see this pope. Very soon, for the sake of the credibility and authority of the next pope, benedict xvi will, in his own words, be hidden from the world for the rest of his life. This is newsday on the bbc. Im mariko 0i in singapore. Im kasia madera in london. Our top stories the coronavirus outbreak has sparked sharp falls for the second day, as asia markets head lower, after the dowjones loses another 3 . More than a dozen people have been killed in the indian capital, delhi, in the worst rioting between hindus and muslims for decades. Lets take a look at some front pages from around the world. Not surprisingly, stories related to the coronavirus dominate all the front pages. The New York Times has the headline, wall street wakes up to risks of outbreak. It says reports of people infected with the virus in countries with Major Economies such as south korea and italy have caused a fall of shares in most asian and european markets. The gulf news leads with the headline, all140 virus cases in the region linked to iran. The report says one of the key officials leading the fight to stop the spread of the virus fell victim to it himself. The japan times headline says virus policies come at a crucial juncture. It features the governments plan to avoid overwhelming hospitals and prioritise treatment for those who are at risk of developing serious pneumonia. Now, kasia, a unique meeting is attracting a lot of attention online. Yes, its an image of a face to face meeting of perhaps two of the most famous young women campaigners in the world today. This is the moment when climate activist Greta Thunberg met Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai at Oxford University here in the uk. Malala, who campaigns for the education of girls, tweeted this image with a caption saying greta is the only friend she would skip school for. This image trending on social media. To us politics now, and the tenth democratic debate is under way in charleston, south carolina. Seven hopefuls will take to the stage, with Bernie Sanders emerging as the frontrunner after the early caucuses and primaries. Barbara plett usher is there for us. I asked her what Bernie Sanderss rivals had been saying about him ahead of the debate. Hes going to be taking centre stage with a target on his back, i think, because the candidates have made pretty clear theyre going to try to stop or slow down his momentum. And they have been previewing some of their attacks. Joe biden, for example, has released a digital advert in which he has basically said that Bernie Sanders was no friend of reich 0bama, that mr sanders tried to undermine mr0bama in the past. Michael bloomberg has also released an advert in which he has criticised mr sanders on his record on gun control, to a soundtrack of rather ominous music, it must be said. And, as you know, Bernie Sanders is a self proclaimed democratic socialist, and theres been criticism about his policies, that theyre too extreme, theyre not affordable. I think hell be very much criticised on that as well. He has defended himself forcibly in the past, and i think he will do so again. Its also a key night forjoe biden, who has not really performed that well so far. Its a crucial debate forjoe biden. Some would even say make or break debate, because here in south carolina, hes long been the frontrunner. He has a loyal and large support base of black voters, and black voters are the majority in south carolina. And he has performed poorly so far in the race, but hes said consistently wait til i get to south carolina. Thats when my campaign will take off. Thats when im going to be propelled into the race with a big win. But his lead has slipped dramatically here. It was in double digits. Now it no longer is. Others, including Bernie Sanders, are nipping at his heels. Some of his supporters think he may no longer be the man who can beat president trump. He will have to have a strong showing on the stage tonight to try to convince them that he is. What about Michael Bloomberg . His debate performance last week has been described as poor by many. Can he make a comeback . That is what is going to try to do he needs to do it he needs to do it, because it is charitable to say his performance was very shaky indeed. Hes effectively bought himself a place, with his billions a massive advertising campaign. But when he got to the debate stage he was really attacked last week, especially by elizabeth warren, who eviscerated him on issues like his companys treatment of women, his controversial record on criminaljustice when he was mayor of new york. And he had very stumbling responses. He came across as prickly and hesitant and brittle. He basically needs to sound like the guy in his advertisements. And he has been practising. We know he skipped an event last night to try to sharpen his game. And, for him and for everybody on the stage, its a crucial debate, because its the last one before whats called super tuesday, next tuesday, when 1a states are going to vote at once, and a third of the delegates will be upforgrabs. So they really want to make an impression tonight. The indonesian capital, jakarta, is the worlds fastest sinking city. It is one of many reasons the countrys president , joko widodo, wants to move it, vowing to build a new capital on the once jungle covered island of borneo. The promise is of a sustainable, smart city of the likes indonesia has never seen. But, as Rebecca Henschke reports, there are fears about the Environmental Impact of the move. Jakarta is sinking at alarming rate. Its predicted that almost all the land here in North Jakarta will be underwater injust 30 years. This was built in an attempt to hold back the tide, a giant sea wall that goes for hundreds of metres. But what is on the other side has become an iconic image of a city that is living on borrowed time. This mosque went under years ago, and the predictions for this area are bleak. Faced with this future, the president wants to move the capital to a new site, 1,000 km away, to the island of borneo. Nearly 2,000 hectares of land has been designated. The estimate cost 33 billion. And the deadline within just four years. This is what it could look like. The winning urban design, selected through a government run competition, is of a Sustainable Forest city. We have a very Good Opportunity to start from scratch, where we have all the model of the city that is compact, that is walkable. But the Indigenous People of this area are fearful about what it will mean for them. Translation we strongly reject the move. We are disappointed and scared. We are worried that our land and forest will be filled with tall buildings, and we will lose our way of life. Due to rapid deforestation here, orangutans who call these forests home are now critically endangered. At this sanctuary near the new capital site, orphaned baby orangutans are having to be looked after by humans. The government is vowing to protect and restore forests around the capital, but environmentalists are worried. Translation this is a key habitat for many animals. If this is swallowed up by the new capital, where will the animals go . The promise is that the mistakes of the past injakarta will not be repeated in borneo. But can that dream be realised, and at what cost to one of the most biodiverse places on earth . Rebecca henschke, bbc news, kalimantan. Im kasia madera in london. And im mariko 0i in singapore. Dont go away. And well leave you with images of an unusual bank in the norwegian arctic. This is a global seed vault, which now contains1 million varieties of seeds. It was built to store genetic material, protecting it against any potential disasters which could threaten the worlds food supply. Hello there. Were stuck in this colder air stream through wednesday and were stuck in this colder air thursday. And that means more showers, more wintry showers as well. And weve already seen snow falling to quite low levels. Now, as those showers ease off across central and eastern parts of the uk, well see temperatures dropping away. Many areas having a touch of frost, particularly cold though, again, in the north east of scotland. And given those showers, some icy conditions, especially for northern and western parts of the uk, where those showers keep going into the morning. In general, fewer showers, perhaps, on wednesday. A few will get across to the midlands, eastern england, and eastern scotland, but most of them, certainly during the afternoon, towards Northern Ireland and western scotland. Snow mainly over the hills. Some heavier showers, mind you, and temperatures of 5 9 degrees once again. Chilly in the breeze, but it wont be as windy in the south west of england. Here, during the evening though, cloud is thickening up. Weve got some rain moving in. Thats moving into the colder air. So theres the threat of some snow overnight in the brecon beacons, perhaps a centimetre or two of wet snow over the cotswolds, and later into the chilterns as well. It is mostly rain. Further north, the air is colder, of course. Wintry showers keep going, and there will be some icy patches around as well. Now, its this area of low pressure that brings the threat of some wet show across more southern parts of england and wales. That then moves away into Continental Europe on thursday. But it could take much of the morning before that wetter weather to clear the south east of england. Once it does, were all into that cold north westerly airflow. Sunnier skies, showers mainly for Northern Ireland, northern and western scotland, and the north west of england. But many places in the afternoon, away from here, i think will be dry. Still, temperatures struggling to 5 7 degrees. Another frost, actually, on thursday night. And then we look in to the atlantic to see more weather systems moving further north across the uk. Itll be a cold start, cloud will increase. Well see outbreaks of rain moving in from the south west. You can see how the wind direction changes. We pick up more of a south westerly wind. We may well find some snow over the tops of the pennines, southern uplands, towards the latter part of the day. Temperatures 6 7 degrees for most. But milder, perhaps double figures for southern parts of england and wales. But that rain may well get steadier and heavier, actually, on friday night, saturday morning, before pushing away. Then a few more isobars in the chart as well. And were back into that colder, showery airstream as saturday goes on. So remaining very unsettled over the weekend. A spell of rain and some showers, wintry over the hills, more rain on sunday, and feeling chilly in the wind. Im kasia madera, with bbc news. Our top story the coronavirus outbreak has sparked sharp falls for the second day running on stock markets in the United States and europe.
