Im Melissa Chan Welcome To News Asia thanks for joining deadly violence has hit a remote part of indonesia this week violence that appears to have started because of a text message it happened in papa province which is next to pop into guinea its a place ethnically and culturally distinct from much of the rest
and there s no actual punishment for not for countries like germany not to fulfill the sanction but obviously as i said it s a question of variability they have to remain credible at the international stage and these sanctions were absent yet agreed on unanimously so member states really committed to these sanctions against north korea. on hammerstein thank you very much. too young too old too short too tall too thin too fat people in the public eye face so much scrutiny for the way they look tell me about it especially if they don t conform to regional or physical stereotypes now one theatre company in india is out to prove it s possible to be proud and plus sized the. well. that was really. my big fat
