rate hike as well. federal reserve officials are - rate hike as well. federal- reserve officials are embracing the higherfor longer reserve officials are embracing the higher for longer strategy. that's according to the newly released minutes in the september meeting. the readout shows while people are divided on whether the us central rate hike will happen before the year is out, they seem it has spill—over effects in financial markets everywhere. higher rates make it more expensive for americans to take out a loan on a house or a car and makes it more expensive for businesses to borrow through loans or lines of credit, all of which slows growth. meanwhile, the interest paid on us government bonds is also moving towards its highest levels in more than 15 years. that could end up having the same effect as a fed rate hike without the fed having to act. during that september meeting, participants viewed the economic climate, including strong growth and a cooling at labour market as positive indicators, but since then, we have seen a red hot october jobs report meeting expectations, and we have seen a full—blown conflict erupted between israel and hamas in the middle east. that will restrict oil supply that could elevate prices and contribute to headline inflation. the next time the fed meets, it will clearly have a whole new lot of circumstances to consider. meanwhile, the world bank has told the bbc that after covid, extreme poverty increased for the first time in decades. the bank �*s senior managing director said more funds were needed to tackle it. our business editor faisal islam spoke to him at its meeting in marrakesh. 25 spoke to him at its meeting in marrakesh-— marrakesh. 25 years ago, extreme _ marrakesh. 25 years ago, extreme poverty -

two things? poverty reduction remain central to our vision i remain central to our vision and mission. however, you mentioned just before covid has had a devastating effect that for the first time in decades, extreme poverty increased again. then there is another challenge, fragile states. we are expecting over half of the extreme poor will live in these countries by 2030. that means if we want to deal with it, we need to deal with some of the global challenges that can mean fragility, but also on climate. to india now where the financial crime probing agency the enforcing directorate has arrested a chinese national who works for smartphone maker vevo in a case of alleged money—laundering on tuesday. vevo has denied any wrongdoing but other chinese players have faced growing scrutiny in india following that tense border stand up in 2020. my colleague has more from mumbai. the arrest of the vevo employee by india's financial crime agency isjust the india's financial crime agency is just the latest in a spate of controversies that have dogged chinese companies in india in recent years —— vivo. vivo has said it is deeply concerned and exercising legal options. one of the lawyers i spoke with said they money—laundering provisions under which this arrest has been made is very stringent and used to deal with criminal cases are not civil offences. vivo along with rp —— po and xiaomi are facing a separate tax evasion case in this country. in fact, tax evasion case in this country. infact, india's tax evasion case in this country. in fact, india's it minister has accused the firms are collectively not paying over $1 billion worth of taxes earlier this year. reports suggest indian authorities are keeping a strict watch on chinese investments in the auto sector, with car—makers like mg motors and byd facing difficulties obtaining visas and executing plans for expansion. chinese apps like tiktok are already banned in india and earlier this month indian police also arrested journalists from the portal news click over alleged foreign funding from china, a charge that the founders have denied. despite these ongoing tensions, india's bilateral trade with china grew at a record pace in 2021 and 2022, a reflection of how difficult it is for new delhi to reduce its economic dependence on chinese imports. let's go to indonesia now, where there is plan to develop an industrial park, and that has been met with resistance by locals on ramp an island close to singapore. the megaproject will eventually displace 5500 residents to make way for various industries, including a chinese owned solar panel and glass factory. my colleague sent this report. this streaming strategy, inviting direct investment into the country �*s manufacturing industry will see this village transformed into an industrial eco city. a chinese firm has agreed to build a factory here to manufacture glass and solar panels. this island is rich with quartz sands, one of the main components to making solar panels, and it is also strategically located because it is very near to singapore, which you can see from here. there are 16 old villages in the island and most people have been living here as fishermen for decades. the development plans for rempang have been around for about 20 years but were on pause until recently. the fresh push and the idea of relocating led to protests from the locals. the first phase of the locals. the first phase of the factory will lead to about 900 families being displaced, but only one third have signed up but only one third have signed up for the government �*s alternative housing plan. translation:— alternative housing plan. translation: ., , translation: the location is read . translation: the location is ready- but — translation: the location is ready- but on _ translation: the location is ready. but on 400 _ translation: the location is ready. but on 400 hectares. i translation: the location is. ready. but on 400 hectares. we will have public schools, health facilities, football fields, masks, and transport rates, we will build them all. the designated place is still covered with vegetation. the promised settlement won't be ready for another two years. while waiting, families will be temporarily move to another city, but far from the ocean. this person is amongst those reluctant to move. the centenarian has eight children, 30 grandchildren and 29 great grandchildren, all of them live in the same village. translation: iii in the same village. translation: ., , . translation: if all my children have moved _ translation: if all my children have moved out, _ translation: if all my children have moved out, i— translation: if all my children have moved out, i will— translation: if all my children have moved out, i will come -
