let's look at what this materials move means for the rest of the world. the consensus is that will be damaging not fatal for the united states. the reason china dominate the market is not because it is the only place where gallium and germanium exists, but because it is by far the cheapest place you can get them from. you don'tjust dig them up from the ground, they are derived from a more complicated reduction process and china has that capability. so governments and businesses will have to rely on cheaper substitutes and alternative sources. it means prices will go up, it means some products might be less effective and some production right be delayed. so this sort of poses a bit of an existential thread for western industry, it's the gradual erosion of capability. but in a broader sense this threatened the overall narrative of globalisation, the idea that international markets will be able to deliver what you need, when you need it at the price that you need. derisking is what western governors like to call it, being less plan on china, but this escalating tit for tat between the world's superpowers, that has got people worried about the weaponising of materials that you hold, the technologies that you have. a lot of people that think that would have global consequences also for the help of the planet and that is because a lot of crucial green technologies rely on these so—called critical materials. this is not a national problem, this is a human race problem, and hopefully policymakers can come to the table, secure access to the critical materials that are really essential for the energy transition, so we can start to tackle some of the challenges around decarbonisation. earlier, i spoke with anna ashton of political risk consultancy firm eurasia group, who explained the impact of restriction on supply chains. these two particular minerals are not the most widely used, they are not the ones that the united states and other countries are the most reliant on china for, they're not the hardest to get, but i think it's important to keep in mind that if china had put these sorts of restrictions on refined lithium or cobalt or something like that, it would be much more impactful than gallium and germanium. so china has intentionally selected ones that it can use to send a signal. they are clearly important to the semiconductor industry, but they are fungible, they can be swapped out for other things in many instances are supplied by other places. so it is not going to create a crisis for the industry. where do you see this ending between the us and china? i don't know if it will ending, i think we will have a ramp up in tech competition between the us and its allies and china. and china seeking to peel away those allies, because they are important trading partners for china. as both washington and beijing strive to gain more self—reliance and diversify their trading partners. and i just don't think that's going to change, no matter how much the diplomacy improves between the diplomacy improves between the two countries, because there is a fundamental difference in their strategic goals and ambitions, and the competition is going to continue. that is anna ashton there. speaking of restrictions, china has slapped export controls on certain drone—related equipment, like engines, lasers and anti—drone systems. the new restrictions will kick in next month. the controls could affect some consumers. china is home to a big drone manufacturing industry that exports to multiple countries like the us. beijing said the new move will safeguard national security interests, after criticism that its drones were used in the ukraine war. meanwhile, beijing has unveiled new measures to boost consumption in the world's second largest economy, targeting areas like real estate and the auto sector. this is as the latest manufacturing data in the country slumped for the fourth month in a row injuly. china's economy is showing signs of slowing, as demand weakens at home and abroad. earlier, i spoke with louise loo of independent advisory firm oxford economics, and she gave us her take on beijing's latest measures. we were very much hoping authorities would move from policy guidance to policy implementation. that really was not the case. we are seeing a lot more of rehashing what has been said last week. so i don't think there's anything new in there. it does suggest to us that the government is moving towards this consumption—led driven stimulus, which frankly i think would be quite helpful, given where the witness is going into the second half of this year. but they did not have any sort of spending cuts or any sort of spending packages? are they being aggressive enough to get china's economy back on track? i think ultimately the government will try to engineer towards a slower, healthier growth. and so gone are the days were receiving seamless packages. of course, these big step in this packages tend to have the impact of being able to boost confidence, so there is some scepticism over these kind of single—drip policy would help lift consumer sentiment at all, but i do think the fact that the government is more targeted, the fact that the measures are targeted will help curb in q2. consumer confidence, do you see this changing? yes, certainly. one of the surprises, at least for us, is that there is a signal coming from authorities that the regulatory environment is reaching some sort of inflection point. authorities at the very high level are pledging the support to private enterprises, especially for the platform economy, which is not the signal we have got two or three years ago. i do think going forward the regulatory environment will be easier, which will help lift private sentiment that much higher in the second half of this year. elsewhere in the world, lebanon's central bank governor riad salameh has stepped down after 30 years. the 73—year—old leaves office facing a slew of criticism, including presiding over a financial crisis as well as corruption charges both at home and abroad. lebanon has failed to appoint an official successor to mr salameh, who has headed the central bank since 1993 and has worked for 12 prime ministers. an interim governor will take over in the meantime. india has released core industry output figures on monday. and while numbers touched a five—month high, the index of the country's industrial growth has slowed compared to last year. my colleague arunoday mukharji explains why. india's eight key industrial sectors have registered a growth of around 8% last month, which is the highest since the start of this year, but if you compared it to last year, it is a drop from 13%. these sectors include areas like cement, steel, coal, electricity, among a few, but if you talk about lecture but if you talk about electricity it is the biggest contributor to the calculations when you're looking at india's output. electricity demand has picked up in the last few months. all the sectors have seen an uptick this time around except for one — crude oil. that continues to witness stagnant growth. why? because when you speak to experts there is consensus globalfood present have been dropping, and in such a scenario, countries prefer the cheaper option. that is, to halt domestic production and rely more on imports. that is what india has done as well. so you continue to see negative growth in that territory. why are these industrial growth figures important? it is because these core sectors contribute about 40% of india's industrial growth, a key barometer to india's economic growth as well. and finally, the owners of twitter, now known as x, have been accused of trying to "bully" anti—hate campaigners into silence with letters threatening legal action. the center for countering digital hate said elon musk�*s x corp accused it of making "troubling and baseless claims" in its reports about the site. the group had earlier published reports claiming that hate speech on the platform has risen since mr musk bought it for $41; billion last year. and that's it for this edition of asia business report. i'm monica miller. thanks for watching. bbc news bringing you different stories from across the uk. safe and sound asleep. these puppies are lucky to be here. their mum was a stray, rescued from the streets, heavily pregnant, clearly traumatised. when she arrived with us, she was so nervous to the point that she didn't actually walk for the first, i'd say, week. she wouldn't stand. she was just so nervous she wouldn't go anywhere, particularly of men, but with everyone, basically.. staff at the rescue centre named the nervous collie roo and a foster family was found at this farm near helston, where she could have her litter of seven pups in peace and quiet. things aren't perfect for her. she's definitely still got a long way to go. but coming to a nice, quieter environment than being in kennels has been fantastic for her. she's come along really, really well and the next stage will be, obviously, keep feeding and keep growing the puppies. and then when they're old enough, we will be finding them all homes and obviously roo as well. but for now, she's just she's really happy here. she's settled well. with tens of thousands of dogs in uk rescue centres. the national animal welfare trust says roo's story is an important reminder to think carefully before getting a pet. for more stories from across the uk, head to the bbc news website. hey, i'm dylan with the catch up. tonight — more drilling for oil, stormzy�*s cambridge scholarships and a world record. but first, the prime minister says he's giving the green light for companies to explore and potentially drill for more oil and gas in the north sea, just off the uk. but environmental campaigners and other political parties say more drilling for fossil fuels, which contribute to pollution, is bad news for the country's climate and clean energy targets and doesn't listen to science. rishi sunak says more drilling will help to stop the uk relying on other countries for the fuel we use every day to fill our cars and heat our homes. some other stories now, and a woman in northumberland has warned others about the dangers of getting botox from non—medical practicioners after she said she couldn't open her eye for 16 weeks after getting botox from someone in their home. currently, cosmetic practitioners don't need to have any mandatory qualifications, even though some treatments require needles and can cause serious complications. at the world cup, the moroccan defender nouhaila benzina has become the first player to wear a hijab at a world cup match. she made her debut in morocco's win against south korea. and stormzy has pledged to support 36 more black students in their three years of study at cambridge university. the stormzy scholarships were launched by the rapper five years ago. since then, cambridge uni say applications from black students have doubled, calling it the "stormzy effect". by 2026, 81 students will have received one. and finally, ten seconds where you might not want to look down. the three—time world slackline champion went the distance between two towers in qatar — walking along the rope at 185m in the air, setting a new world record. pretty daring, if you ask me. that's it. you're all caught up. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm tanya arnold. england clinch a dramatic win in the fifth and final ashes test at the oval. and who else to seal it? it had to be the departing stuart broad. to get the ball with a couple of wickets left and manage to bowl at some left—handers, which has been one of my favourite things to do in my whole career, and to catch the edge a couple times was truly wonderful. england maintain their winning streak at the netball world championships, as scotland and wales lose against two of the favourites. australia avoid an upset to make the knockouts of the women's world cup in style, at the expense of the olympic champions. a classic ashes series had a hollywood ending — stuart broad, who announced on saturday his retirement from cricket, took the last two wickets in the final test match at the oval in london. it means the series is drawn 2—2, but australia retain the ashes. though broad will get the headlines, this was a team performance, asjoe wilson reports. stuart broad's celebrations may well provide the defining image of this match and this series. imagine, in yourfinalact, your final delivery,
