S. While President Donald Trump praises chinas efforts to contain the virus his economic adviser says theres a lack of transparency we still havent go in there and i think some of the experts and the our Public Health team are quite disappointed we thought there was better transparency coming out it doesnt appear to me i know they revised their numbers of a bit they say its a different method of counting what we just dont know its the great unknown and i wish we did know more because you know this should not be about politics or for that matter trade this is just plain ordinary health Public Health help people well lets get an update now from adrian brown who is in hong kong for us adrian the fact that the people on the front line of this crisis are being infected is worrying why are so many health with this being infected. Well during the past few weeks fully a number of doctors and nurses have been putting messages on social media complaining about the fact that they dont have adequate protective clothing so i think its fair to assume that those who have become infected those who have died have so because they havent had the correct protective gear now chinas government concedes there is a shortage of this protective clothing and of course it underscores just how vulnerable frontline medical workers are in china right now the World Health Organization has got more experts arriving at the epicenter today and over the weekend to supplement the team that arrived there a few days ago the w. H. O. Is also saying and this is i guess a grain of good news that the rate of infections outside of who go province dont appear to be rising as dramatically as they were during the past few weeks we are around a month into this crisis now adrian and initially theyre reporting on social media west quite open whats the tone now on the reporting on social media as. Well youre absolutely right when president xi jinping urged transparency in mid january suddenly it was gangbusters with the state controlled media they were all over this story covering all the angles that has now changed because theyre not touching on the negative they are extension waiting very much the positive showing pictures of people who have recovered leaving hospital and also in the last 24 hours showing more pictures of soldiers and volunteers arriving in will hand there has been a Mass Mobilization of people and it has in many ways echoes of the maui or this is what president xi jinping has called a peoples war against you know the devils virus and of moment the problem we have fully right with this particular virus is that were having to try to interpret figures and deeds and there are a lot of figures to interpret thank you very much for that adrian brown life for a sane hong kong now in cambodia it was all smiles as passengers disembark from a cruise ship that had been turned away by 4 asian governments because a few years of the coronavirus they are no confirmed cases among the more than 2000 people on board the m. S. Westerdam when harry for some santa fe a port where the ship is docked. There was celebration and relief his passengers finally received would they were allowed to begin disembarking from the wish to dam a serum only a welcome in cambodia marks the end of a 2 week journey around asia as port after port rejected the ships request to dock you know the ship was very very safe the crew was fantastic we had a very good time considering the circumstances everything was very nice its nice to be able to get home feels very good but maybe most a must be on the ship was fairly well the food was well at the table too as well so we didnt suffer at all and we knew there was no illness at book. Cambodias Prime Minister who flew in for the occasion hes consistently downplayed concerns about corona virus and did so again on the dock in sihanoukville when other government said no to the ship he said yes and he wasnt about to let this opportunity slip by. People asked if there are people on the ship that have coronavirus would allow them to dock i can respond very clearly that if there are people with the virus on the ship i would allow them to dock as soon as possible but there were no confirmed cases on board blood taken from 20 passengers who were unwell when the ship arrived in cambodian waters on thursday tested negative these are among the 1st passengers to disembark and sit 4th on land for the 1st time in 2 weeks the whole process of getting everybody off the ship is expected to take around 3 days so for many on board the frustrating waits will continue the plight of the westerdam was another blow to the cruise ship industry which is being hit hard by coronavirus its own a carnival is the largest cruise operator in the world and says its share price may tumble this year by more than a half because of cancellations it also learns the diamond princess which is docked in new york a hummer japan with thousands quarantined on board and many confirmed infections among passengers and crew experts say the potential for transmission of the virus on a ship is high so theyre not surprised the industry is suffering so if you are in a confined environment like in a cruise ship or in a train then if you are exposed to like you know within the family or with your next to the cabin of the infected person then you can get infected for those on the wish to damn a bizarre cruise around asia is over ending with a welcome and a farewell in cambodia theyll never forget wayne hey al jazeera send up phil.

S. Crude oil soybeans beef and pork are included earlier we spoke to pauline long the managing director of asia and the analysis which conducts research on chinas political economy. I dont see yet so much doubt as a training to war or even a cold war so much as the dawn of an ice age in relations between the 2 countries the american perception now is not just that china is a rule spending competitor but that it is said that all run threat the chinese for their part sees the americans as trying to contain their rise to its rightful position in the Global Economy and still they are almost racing focused dominance so a little any agreements that have on commercial issues wont just deal with a part of the problems between the 2 countries for face to face rephrase for the law only be that technical the easy stuff that could be a pretty darn how much youre buying from you look how much you buy from me how much access i get here but the thing that is holding back a true agreement between the 2 countries is the fact that there is it is very difficult for them to agree on a mechanism for compliance i mean the trade gap acts says intellectual Property Rights and all of that has been discussed for the past 10 years different at ministrations have signed different agreements so were in agreement without some form of Compliance Mechanism that the americans will accept that the chinese can sell to their own people then it will just be you know words of violence feeling bad theres no true resolution of the dispute.

Civilians remain in harms way as hostilities are continuing it live and aleppo reports from the ground indicate the thousands of civilians are on the move from around the m 5 highway with most people moving further north and north west towards the turkey syria border inclement weather including snow fall is excess abating the situation. Well lets get an update now on the humanitarian situation in speak to. On the turkey syria border of course as the Syrian Government forces try to retake this last remaining rebel province of idlib its a civilians who are bearing the brunt just how difficult a situation are they facing right now very difficult for leave the activists on the ground that weve been in touch with over the last few. Hours basically say that the situation is tragic thousands of families forced out of their villages and homes seeking refuse near the border with turkey where they have nowhere to go to set up chants but with the subzero weather conditions the situation is very difficult and most of the terms became suddenly over quotas because of the growing number of people seeking shelter and roof you now over the last 4 days the u.

Very vulnerable against a backdrop of this situation its a very very delicate situation for thousands of thousands of syrians across the border with turkey and when you look at the situation all the developments suggest that were going to see more fighting more escalation in the coming days rush is just going to further jeopardize the lives of the civilians and precisely what are you hearing about the fighting in other areas are syria.
