This by the rise in case law as the government has rejected a 2nd nationwide lockdown and this continuing to lift restrictions how do people feel about this but we cant seem to achieve that. The government says its not to believe that there are not as. Locked up only in the u. S. And b. And we must. Not. Just thank you. Well the coronavirus crazy difficult conditions for Many Industries around the world including the artists in south africa are protesting in major cities asking for government help to save the Creative Industries they say pandemic lockdowns have left them on for nearly 6 months. Chris reports. There has been a lockdown here in south africa for 6 months now but gradually the economy has been reopened in the past weeks and months but not all Industries Many people are still suffering this is why artists came here to protest they say they havent been able to perform for half a year not able to make an income and they want the government to consider them as well. I mean is that mean im an artist im a performer it has been the music. Performance industry detainment lots of other Small Businesses attached to all those Small Businesses out there not just. You know. People so its a lot of levels that have been affected. They just pulled the plug ive been just surviving via the grace of my god you know in my creator and my family people that have helped and supported me they can because our industry was the 1st to be affected it was the 1st to be knocked down shut down completely businesses have gone out of out of business. Many people are also complaining that the government has largely been ignoring the arts and entertaining industry for many years and even during the times of the pandemic some odyssey are complaining that they had no access to a covered 19 emergency relief funds among the people protesting musicians seeing people playing in theaters. Most of the arts menus in capetown remain closed open but at limited capacity at the moment with a maximum of 50 people at one venue people saying this is not enough to survive to make a living and for them to be allowed to operate at 70 percent capacity but there might be a reason for hope for the artist c. E. O. President. Announced that he will address the nation tonight and image for virus infection numbers many people here believe that he will announce a further relaxation off the lockdown regulations. By an increase reporting now it sounds like a script for a hollywood disaster movie the European Space agency assigned to deal with a German Company to build a set of spacecraft and that mission to really direct asteroids before they crash into. Science sometimes takes a while to catch up with fiction more than 2 decades ago this film get in proposed to bombing asteroids to save planet earth from a collision and say. Now a similar plot is being hatched by the European Space agency and. The until now humanity has been powerless against the impact of asteroids and other objects circling close to earth in the meantime we have the technology and the capital to defend ourselves. A series of spacecraft will be launched from june next year 1 will crash into an asteroid to see if it can change its trajectory another croft will analyze the debris from the collision if it succeeds it will be the 1st time Human Technology has shifted a celestial object. Before. Its like billy its a small force hits the asteroid that is heading for earth. Which should cause a deflection. We want to practice this so that we are ready if an asteroid is really heading for us we took a course of forms and the whole mission will take more than 6 years to complete better late than never is already being bombarded. And it continuously happens we get tons of material from the sky falling on old lucky 3 fourths of the earth or core with water and a large quantity is also theres a. But yeah thats like the scientific way to approach the problem. Photography asteroid is attending to us but another one might be this mission could help us prevent a real life get and. So i mean theres a project scientist with the European Space agencys Planetary Defense mission hara welcome to the w so the plan then is to nudge any killer asteroids off course rather than destroy them why because not doing it is much more control it so this technology needed a demonstration like here not yet when ill be able to approximately predict how much change the cause of the asteroids is that can make sure into the case that instead of hitting us. Why if it would last it would be many fragments and its impossible to control what would happen is awesome so how big are these meteorites and how much damage could they do. So as i want to read that you know in next year and saying here id be investigated is. A big us though it is about 160 meters in diameter. And it oh and years size that would destroy a big part of it its a home. And its also about meaning room size you know i dont actually try to do something about it tried to deflect it and because it was more weeds and because the way it its ours was almost like size stange beriberi expect it one day ok so how would this work and with what do you do you have to source super big telescope to say theres a big one on its way. How much sort of notice would you have. Yeah thats an important point its not enough to have. To have a plate to be able to get it if necessary its also important to know what is coming and so as important as fresh missions like like that in here. As the search and support comes out for all the asteroids. And so this is also ongoing and currently nearly 40 asteroids in your eyes down to a kilometer or so in size unknown and to go over 4 months and next 10 years is to know 90 percent of the asteroids larger than 140000. 00 sites and once we know those and it is likely that we are still get c. 5 or 5 or 10 years or so each time that we need to deflect an asteroid should it become necessary ok so we know that the saying is have been hitting the earth from from from time to time and we just we had in the report we just been lucky. I think europeans the only ones during this or all the others launching their own space not just. Yes i do whats happening now is a corporation but hes out so im not im going to launch next years and that is cover the trip actually impact in the mall for us to be just the name of the home of the minister would get you must it. And change the orbit of sea of the moon and consummate us through it and then a couple of years later if it comes in to look at success to measure the mass of the small last minute just need you to interpret the experiment as direct how efficient. And generally to look at i said last well we wish you well with that thank you for joining us couples from the European Space agency. Thank you very much a german politicians have decided that fans across all 16 german states come to put a can return to sports stadium in time for this weekends 1st match day of the pundits make a season for a 6 week trial period clubs will be allowed to use up to 20 percent of best stadiums capacities strict coronavirus and measures will be in place but that no plans for fans to be tested.

The fans everywhere will be subject to strict measures on their return but when your supporters were impressed with their club safety protocols. 1000 people in a stadium that holds 23000 to big problem i think. I agree on your own did a good job in executing their plan there were no problems no risk of infection or anything like that. I. Recently german cup matches have seen even bigger numbers of spectators returning welcome 7 and a half 1000 fans back to now motorist and 10000. Previously the Decision Making power rested with local authorities but now there is a single solution for all german sports clubs 20 percent of the stadiums capacity may be used away fans wont return yet and no alcohol will be sold normality might still be a long way off but the days of actually empty terraces unnumbered bit by bit fans are coming home.

This is deja news a shot coming up today of him on the run standoff between 2 reach them powers that looks set to continue. Into accuses china of violating past border agreements even as both ministries continue to reinforce the troops is this going to get worse before it gets better plus the. Pandemic waste is finding off in the philippines so while on twist because theyre seeing a bump in profits. And is keeping pandemic demand to stop those autumn on the wild animals rescued from fortress a few willing to trade in eastern wildlife joining the call now by this crisis. And bishop Energy Welcome to the news asia glad you could join us india has accused china of violating border agreements as the armies of both countries in. Gage in a tense standoff along a disputed in mali and border speaking in Parliament India defense minister of arjun not seeing said china had unilaterally altered the status quo along the border she also short members of the army was well prepared for any eventuality and contingency plans in place to ensure indias sovereignty. Im not sure you know. We have mean forms china through diplomatic and military channels that such activities are an effort to change the status quo you know laterally and it has been made clear of these efforts are not acceptable to us under any conditions. And this years recent incidents of violent conduct of Chinese Forces are a complete violation of all mutually agreed norms. According to the Current Situation the chinese side has mobilized its armed forces and sent ammunition on the l. A c. And internal areas. China has been well read to that of that a recent agreement between top officials of both sides should form the basis for the easing of tensions went down during their meeting in moscow the Foreign Ministers of china and india reached a positive consensus on jointly easing and cooling the border situation dont you. And we will continue to maintain close communication through military and diplomatic channels to resolve the issues on the ground we hope that india will honestly implement the consensus reached by the Foreign Ministers of the 2 sides made china halfway and make concrete efforts to ease the situation. Is a journalist and Strategic Affairs analyst whos been reporting on the india china border standoff since it began months ago. The Foreign Ministers of both sides agreed last week in moscow the chinese and indian troops would court disengage from their current standoff points is that not already dead given that both sides are actually reinforcing their positions as we speak. Well this is been all since the start of this crisis to see one thing and do another in the giants from the time the entered indian territory which was the early part of me i had been. Seeing that they have not transfers the line ive been through here in china instead of 3 and 2nd greek 2nd calling to disengagement for all but not actually doing it on the ground now the indian side does have the time to build up. The border along the lines actually control and the same thing is happening there is one state of rhetoric that is going on and the other is a possible aggressive and tom of worrying deployment and counter deployment that is going on on the ground there is bringing the troops into peace with each other and setting the stage for violence so thats a wiring proposition you spoke about indian territory and the embassy or the line of actual control now Indian Defense minister of ard nothing said in parliament to the court defining perceptions of the line of actual control which is of course the line across which the standoff stayed in place the Opposition Congress is saying that the phrase deferring perceptions of the m. D. C. Legitimizes china does it. Well yes in a way because a government in a country has to be quite clear where its borders lie and if the other country the country with whom it has a disputed border says that the border does not lie in place x. But lies in place why then this country cannot start seeing differing perceptions and so on and so forth but each country has to be clear when its what id like. You know we if you are if youre rationalizing this this issue of deferring perceptions you also rationalizing aggressive action by the other side to capture the border up to where that country believes its border lights so i think that theres a theres a bit of sort of excuse making that is going on over here when theyre talking about deploying perceptions the fact is that the chinese have entered into a territory that lines on the indian side of the indian perceptions and strong indias viewpoint there can be only one set of perceptions so to that extent this is a bit of an excuse making sort of statement sort of seeks to justify china coming into territory that india teams and that india has always had and that india has patrolled for you know if im not wrong there are 40 some 1000 square kilometers of dirt a tree that india claims as its born is not in accessible to indian troops is this something that the government is to be concerned about. Yes the government is very concerned about this a lot of territory specially in the south asian context is a very emotive subject so this figure itself this 1000 square kilometer has been arrived at by joining several points of incursion so to that extent its its not really valid figure but the fact is that china has entered at least 4 or 5 different points along the line of actual control in grants to do indian claim territory to a distance of 15 to 16 kilometers of the deepest and 2 or 3 kilometers of the shadow points so all these things add up to the city loss of a significant amount of territory and thats a very emotive subject and something that the government is very careful in and final question do you think china and india are now in this for the long haul. Thats hard to see and i would say that both countries aboard not like to get into a winter deployment in an area where temperatures being legal are down to minus 20 and minus 30 degrees centigrade where theres a wind chill factor where high over to fuel causes very serious limitations to how much a human body can do so taking on a winter deployment which is something that would not appeal to the chinese all the indian side so aboard have a very strong reason to deescalate and we have to wait and see if they do that over the next 2 months and you have ever the time in thank you so much for joining us. The growers crisis is creating a tidal wave of Plastic Waste across asia yet the waste because are limiting the business shutdowns or the pandemic mean theyre having an even harder time making a living we followed one man on his daily rounds in the philippines.

The country is largely relying on and former Waste Pickers like us to esther to deal with the problem. The pandemic is really increased benteke will you share in. In the philippines and also in other countries just because theres a lot more people using disposables now due to misconceptions and fears around transmitting the virus and then of course theres things like i disposable ease being used environmentalist so that by informing people that will change meanwhile 60 year old virgilio just wish to is desperate for business to bounce back.
