W dot com highlights one of mankinds oldest ambitions could be within reach or what is it really is possible to reverse aging researchers and scientists all over the world for in a race against time . Ah, they are peers and rivals with one daring goal to help smart nature more life starts february 16th on dw. Ah, a high tech take over worth 4 and a half 1000000000 euros, not happening . German government, declining the go ahead for the take over of waiver maker cell tronic by ty ones, global waivers have live analysis on why berlin run out the clock upon the deal. Also coming up, how a tie. Cafe is banking on the global buzz around crypto currency. And still production is responsible for on 5 percent of global c o 2 emissions. But there is a better, a greener way will show and pros called walk into the program. The German Government has failed to approve a proposed multi 1000000000 euro take over of german waiver maker cell tronic by taiwan. Global wavers, both Companies Make so called wavers. Theyre roughly one millimeter thick sheets of silicon necessary for the manufacturing of semiconductors. Those of course, being the backbone of the Global Technology sector. Berlin had been hesitant to sell off another High Tech Firm to an asian competitor for more. Lets bring in Diddy Kirsten tablo. Shes a senior feller at the German Council on foreign relations, an offer of a book on china relations with europe and technology transfer. Welcome to the, the German Government says there was too little time to review the deal properly after the necessary go ahead came from china. Is that plausible . It is actually plausible in the sense that chinas so called ok to the deal came very late in the day. It was issued, engaging on the 24th of january, published on the 25th in the media. And in fact, china had the steel on its it before for about over year, which is unusual long. These things are supposed to be fixed within 180. 00 days in china. But how much of security concerns were playing a role here . Even if the time span was quite short, while the thing is, of course, as semiconductors, wafers have become a global good if youd like of the highest rate of, of the highest importance. And there is a growing, growing global pressure and competition for this. The chinese conditions, in my opinion, were a bit of a poison pill, although there, okay, was presented as a go ahead from the state Administration Market regulation in beijing. Nevertheless, there were 5 conditions attached to it. And these include, for example, the necessity to continue to supply these wafers to china and future supply as well. So i think that the german side was actually a bit concerned that these conditions werent quite his sort of generous and werent quite go ahead that they seemed to be at 1st glance. So yes, it is a security consideration from several points of view at this point. Did you mentioned it . Some conductors are in high demand at the moment. What implications does this deal not happening . Have for the global shortage of semiconductors . Well, i mean, i mean Semi Conductor wafer and pure silicone wafer business, for example, is expanding in various places. The jap, nissan increase in be active, working with Taiwanese Companies such as ts and see theres a lot of activity going on globally. I dont see that this will directly affect the Global Production. I mean, so tronic will continue as it is, it did want the deal to happen. So did global wafer as 2 Companies Get on well and they wanted the deal to go through germany was off the view, it seems that it wants to you know, resource production within germany within the u. This the question whether or not its picking the right partners for that because arguably, a tie one company would be a pretty good part of germany. So, you know, this stuff is getting very complicated and i think we need to be paying a lot more attention to the sort of political economy of all of this. But i dont see that the Global Production necessarily will. Suffolk companies will continue to try to build up their, their stocks, did he curse them tat low with the German Council on foreign relations. Thank you. Thank you. China remains germanys biggest trading partner numbers are out for 2021 today. And they point to a strong growth for both imports and exports straight between january and november adds up to more than 222000000000 euros. Thats almost 15 percent more than during the entire previous year. With numbers for december still are standing german exports, mostly car. The machinery rose by 10 percent imports from china. Thats what smartphones and other electronics are up by almost 20 percent. Now in recent years, china has also become one of the Worlds Largest money lenders. The country invests and roads and port construction and pipelines and power plants. In total. There are well over 10000 Infrastructure Projects in 165 countries around the globe according to a recent study. And this brings investment, but it also creates new dependencies in the countries that are then in chinas debt. The country with the highest depth to china is venezuela, with more than 58000000000. 00 us dollars, followed by packers fan and 2nd place with almost 40000000000. 00 russia over 37000000000. 00 and on gola, almost 30000000000 dollars. Many other african countries also heavily indebted to china as the country expands and you trade route the belt and road initiative. According to the world bank, china holds about 70 percent of africas public debt, including in uganda, where our next report comes from. Cab driver run out to valley. Do theyve been to the comple expressway for most of the able to speak up. You dont pay me and drop the personnel youre down but doesnt that much to get on the highway. You really must be about 1. 00 us dollars on every gate. You going to hopes to use the money collected to pay the 350000000. 00 borrowed from china. The construct, the road by a 1000 is too much so they need to reduce it to do without then you can to has also bullet another 200000000. 00 from china to upgrade interior airport. But the deal recently outraged the public over fi as of mortgaging the countries only international airport. We never used the airport as collateral security for this long. This alone was guaranteed by the government sovereign credit. You know, you go in to day kids, you can to, has reportedly borrowed over 3000000000. 00 from china. Some are now asking the government to take extra caution. As it borrows from the chinese, youre not bringing as much weight to the table. Unfortunately, the other, the passing more leverage will dictate a little button. And so we are forced sometimes to take some fatty times that might not necessarily be in our best interests. Uganda maintains that chinese, a faithful linda. Now those are, but it wouldnt competitive terms for a loan of this magnitude. When you look around financials across the world, it is very difficult to find someone who is going to give you such money. Which tempos criticized beijing for using loans to exploit developing economies. Batch to many african countries. China may have shortcomings, but its good. The money to support their economies. Trading and Digital Currency has become a thing for a growing number of people around the world and thailand. A local eatery is banking on this very trend. And helping patrons, making the right order at the hip, coffee and restaurant cafe in thailand, customers are being encouraged to eat and drink in front of their screens. These screens however, show the latest prices and trends in crypto currency, and its attracting a whole new order of clientele, vannador having so many screens helps the law like 4 or 5 days ago when the market crashed. We immediately know and get to analyze crashing factors and decide whether we should execute the by order or not coming from to me, its exciting because i get to meet people with the same interests as traitors. We get to Exchange Information because in the trading world, the more information you have, the stronger upper hand, you will have won, and we are competing against millions of people, not just one. Along with coffee, the cafe offers free investment advice. It says its aiming to provide cash, making alternatives to people in the province, and it hopes to start its own crypto currency, coin some day till crypto currency is gaining traction in thailand, where the government introduced a crypto tax in 2018, the Southeast Asian country traded more than 7000000000. 00 us dollars in Digital Assets last november, according to data from the securities and exchange commission. It finance minister recently announced the government would issue guidelines to make trading simpler for ty citizens. The screens at hip are making things simpler for cafe owners till who have doubled their Customer Base since installing them in 2020, with germanys economy is to be transformed into being much more sustainable and greener. Thats the goal of germanys new governing 3 Party Coalition government. This task isnt made much easier for the fact that germanys Strong Manufacturing sector relies heavily on steel now, Steel Production is responsible for on 5 percent of global c o. 2 emissions. A german steel mill managed to slash its Greenhouse Gas emissions. And heres how the scrap steel comes in all shapes and sizes from waste incineration plants and dealers, primarily from the surrounding roar valley region. And this is where its recycled. The specific mix of different kinds of use steel is collected in half scrap book fair than conveyed to the melting hall, which measure some 40 meters tall. Everything here is supersized, because one of the biggest electric arc furnaces in the world is about to get to work powered by electricity with a load of 61000 amps and 110000 volts generating old lot of heat. You close to. Biggest danger is always a failure in the cooling, that if the electric arc works with a huge amount of energy, with temperatures of up to 3 and a half 1000 degrees, the sum of the molten metal is heated to 17 or 1800 degrees. So if the cooling fails at the furnace would melt itself on buffalo install photography, me once the melting process is over, he retracts the electrodes. What we have here is a special design of furnace. That is pretty rare. So its exciting coming here every day and seen the crude raw material being turned into precision product of out of the factory as high voltage power lines due to the scale involved, the supply, the entire complex, with 350000000 kilowatt hours of energy a year making Energy Efficiency a priority. Using scrap means we already have low Energy Consumption and c o 2 emissions from said interesting via the step were taking now producing orange steel is a further improvement. There is still not my dog in the future will be making it all with Green Electricity slide. So comforted norm intercoastal, despite being produced with eco friendly energy, the company says its green. Steel does not cost much more than steel made with coal. And heres a reminder of our top story for you at the sour, a proposed multi 1000000000 euro take over of german waiver maker sil. Tronic is not happening after the German Government failed to prove it. Taiwan global waivers had made a bit, but berlin had long been hesitant to sell off.
