Huge foreign dance weighing on its coronavirus hit economy. Also with Shopping Mall rental income plunging businesses reassessing office space all look at the pandemics Lasting Impact on commercial real estate. And in sports costa rica becomes the 1st country in the americas to resume their professional football league. And ever jetliner with almost 100 people on board has crashed into a crowded neighborhood near the airport in the coastal pakistani city of karachi there are at least 2 survivors from the plane pictures before sadly showing one man being carried away from the wreckage have been posted online its not known how many people were killed or injured on the ground pilot of the Pakistan International Airlines Plane was heard transmitting a mayday to the control tower shortly before the crash lets get the latest now from a whos in islamabad what more do we know. Just moments before that crashed in the residential area he had already informed the controller at karachi. Had indeed developed engine trouble we are toward buy that weve spoken to that. Gliding mode which would mean they. Had faded and this was going to be the final approach. However then hey. Communication. Then came down and. Did what we know so far obviously that i did go on the ground because that is quite a lot of destruction on the ground doing building the now good war torn down by the. Wreckage of the druidic cross an area. That congested it is going to be a difficult operation to begin because there are rescue crews there. We are told that 2 people have made a. Crash one minor injuries life threatening even spoke to me that managed. To get on. Board were they able to crawl out of that wreckage. Thank you for that commodity live and some of us. So we can speak now to aviation analyst. Who joins us on skype here in doha thanks for your time i believe youve listened to the calls from pilots in those final moments want to those coals tell us about what might happen here. Well i think we have to be very careful in trying to determine exactly what the key contributors were to this accident because liken so many aviation tragedies that sadly this industry suffers occasionally because aviation still remains the safest form of transport it often turns out to be a far more complex scenario than what we may be able to obtain or gather from just one transmission one mayday call from a communication between flight crew and air Traffic Control with todays incident we know that this involved Pakistan International Airlines Airbus a 320. 00 this is a short haul ass jet now generically this kind of aircraft one of them takes off every one and a half seconds all over the world so when a 320. 00 takes up every one and a half seconds in a normal pattern nontonic world with kobe at 19 we know that there is a virtue aviation ground stop and there is very little activity going on pakistan they had just recently resumed domestic flights just last week and this was one of those flights that domestic flights connecting 2 of its largest cities and so it is of course a devastating incident that we are still trying to learn more from but its very early days and what about the Airline Safety record what can you tell us on that front. Pakistan International Airlines is quite a subject in pakistan not least because of the ongoing problems that the airline to do with all kinds of claims be it corruption all the mismanagement and perhaps even questions over the kind of financial struggles that the airlines has has faced in recent years but i think again it would be too early to link that and the reputation that it has with todays incident only because generally speaking on the whole Pakistan International airlines does have not a bad Safety Record it does operate International Flights it is recognised by International Regulators and as such if i dont approve to fly to places like the United Kingdom and places within europe but it has suffered a few incidents including as recently as a few years ago where they were involved in a major crash in northern pakistan this scenario is likely to be different of course we are in a time like no other we are in a covert 1000 pandemic where the majority of the flea has been on the ground for quite some time now and pakistans Domestic Aviation network was only allowed to go back into the air a week ago and this will for sure play a factor in this initial investigation period because when were looking at the scenarios in place we are living in a time quite like none other now that no other time before. Given where in the middle of this pandemic there are restrictions on travel though as youve been saying obviously pakistan is lifted those in recent weeks what will happen from hair in terms of an investigation what agencies in the tree to be involved. Well this is almost a nightmare scenario in a normal circumstance let alone in a pandemic not least because of having to apply things like social distancing and keeping the Public Safety at home which of course pakistan has been doing for a number of weeks now as part of that lockdown but you have the manufacturer air bus who were the ones who made this aircraft some 15 years ago they have provided the statement to confirm that the accident has taken place there are of course aware of it and now they will be providing assistance along with regulators but there has never been this kind of investigation or indeed or indeed this kind of incident on this scout within a pandemic and thats why this is likely to be different expected to be a longer investigation perhaps we will not get immediate answers as soon as we would in a non pandemic world because of the complications that code 19 is presenting in terms of those travel restrictions just this is very flight today that has sadly resulted in this fatal crash flying from lahore to karate they were social distancing on board the reason why there were some empty seats was not because they simply didnt have a full flight but actually its because the airline itself was keeping so empty seats within the cab into social distance cabins on board as aviation has this slow and gradual return and need to be ease of lockdown so it really is an unprecedented scenario meeting a rare but unfortunate circumstance which is that an airline accident ok thank you for that that is aviation analyst. Hong kongs chief executive says her government will cooperate with beijings plan to introduce a new National Security law as soon as possible carol lam says the legislation will not affect the rights and freedoms of residents the announcement has been condemned by prodemocracy activists who say beijing also impose its will on the semi autonomous territory. Well heres why its considered controversial by many in hong kong the territory is governed under a one country 2 systems rule that defines its relationship with beijing until 2047 guaranteeing rights and freedoms for hong kong as in 2003 an attempt by the Hong Kong Government to enact a National Security law was met by widespread protests and the bill was those who shelves it was mentioned china has bypassed the Territories Legislature and proposed a National Security bill directly to the National Peoples congress that bill aims to prevent the version foreign interference and wants to scribed as terrorism massive often violent protests hit hong kong for months last year and the law is chairwoman of the International Affairs committee of hong kongs Democratic Party and a former member of the Legislative Council she says agreement could probably be reached if beijing agreed to negotiate if they would only sit and talk to the prodemocracy can see what their concerns are. Each side make some compromises i think they can have a consensus but they refused to do it they just want to bhuttos it threw it tried into all of 3 failed and now theyre trying it again and this time they dont even want to take it to the Legislative Council they just want to do it in beijing and then foist it on us and in so doing beijing is declaring the end of one country 2 systems if thats the case its going to be one country one system we have will be just like any other chinese city and even the hong kong people who belongs to the National Peoples congress when they travel to beijing yesterday to attend the meeting they didnt know about it it just beijing just sprang it on everybody oh it was so shocking and disgraceful im sure there will be more protests and and my party will be wood working with at the prodemocracy parties organizations to plan the protests about of course now we have to buy receipt so people have Health Concerns and also their social distancing groups and so people have to be careful because if we break the rules idea could do the rest of us and we will be charged and maybe we have to go to jail so everybody has to be aware that this school happened but still i think many people just will not wear it they will come out to protest and we want to be International Community to speak out and particularly we want the British Government to speak up because britain handed millions of people over to communist rule in 97 and if you look at the statement by the British Government yesterday saying they will want to turn the situation it is so real a dream and so weak i think its quite disgraceful. Wang quayle is in charge of the center for china and globalization a think tank based in beijing he also advises the government he explained to the chinese governments position. On call we are seeing that. There is a lot of. Unrest and a lot of this is a lot of demonstrations and some of very violent and its really greatly interfere with the daily lives of young and also put on going to go into really. Is the point probably since the handover and actually now you see the tourism is from a lot is. Home the economy support is not there and the hong kong really losing a lot of appeal to lead the national a community because hong kong is not basically. Cannot be invested anymore because of the political instability and also the violence with so i think what Central Government is trying to stabilize the situation but also to introduce the also that there is no you know independence theres no no wireless and of course this is really for the for the long haul the u. S. Has joined those condemning chinese proposed security law for hong kong secretary of state says its disastrous lets go live now to White House Correspondent kimberly how could kimberly well said the secretary of state have to say. Well this is really a very strong rebuke coming from the u. S. Secretary of state the statement he put out on friday says the decision to bypass hong kongs well established legislative processes and ignore the will of the people of hong kong would be a death knell for the high degree of autonomy beijing promised for hong kong under the sino british joint declaration a un filed agreement so whats significant about this is the statement by the United States goes what further than it did even 24 hours ago in fact the National Security adviser Robert Obrian saying that america will respond if china take strong action with this proposed National Security law and now essentially the view of the United States is look there was an agreement in place made it was supposed to last 50 years now 27 years in the United States believes that china views that hong kong has too much freedom but that agreement provided for rule of law freedom of speech and if that is not upheld the United States says that it will take action and expects that other countries would do so as well can be how wide this impacts us china relations with with a pandemic are already pretty tense. Yes its definitely not going to help kim i mean the bottom line in all of this is that relations between the worlds 2 largest economies already really strange you point out the coronaviruses as the perfect example of sort of the latest in a deepening rift a downward spiral of these relations the president has been very clear he has pointed the finger at china repeatedly saying it was too slow to act in the early days of the virus has not provided transparency has even said that there may be punitive action as a result by the United States then you have adding on to all of that the trade war between the 2 nations that has really exacerbated that rift and then you have to Public Opinion of the United States theres a poll out very recently that showed that 66 percent of americans have a very unfavorable view of china and they believe in many cases that china is using Technology Just spy on americans so this is only adding fuel to the fire in fact the u. S. President was asked twice about this really didnt talk about this much on thursday but you have to acknowledge that his answers are somewhat telling because the United States doesnt have a whole lot of action that it can take it is exploring options but the bottom line the only thing the president would say is that if the United States needs to address this issue it would do so very strongly thank you that White House Correspondent complete their life from the white house. Much more still to come. Indias government is accused of using pride a virus Recovery Efforts to exploit. Defying police and risking their licenses Indonesian Market traders go to desperate legs.

So thank you much for having me today i guess as you have said so today because that is the end of the. Race here and the negotiations how you go are becoming going on for a couple of months now and of course as you know as that and i was a month ago i do see systemic risk. Do you actually at the end of the day. In i think your cut what was most probably will happen today is that. These i have wont be. Since the negotiations are still you know what were seeing is a lot of fireworks from both sides basically we are seeing a competition about. How big. And how long the grace period will be in terms of when actually you know. The government is asking for 3 years and this is what. House has said is sustainable. The bottom of it i guess is were seeing is really. How these then he or she has changed dramatically since december. So let me put it to you about it in december when the new government. That was really a clear problem so much as they have stressed you of choosing the finest minister some who are sending experts on restructuring things man. And he was close you know i choose 2 specific ideas on how to structure basically not to default as you know in your one something that many people believe she also gives her recovery so it was not the case for the stocks that were. The chance to have a record. Because youre still you have. 45 percent or should you be in excess of that 5 years or so this is roughly because the context of this new government is proposing to suspend repayments for 2 or 3 years and you know 3 years and then. Use that chance to redeem the country. This was the case in december when it was a really clear that the that was unsustainable. And that the repayments they were facing in this year and next year where really too high for them and it only goes to really ok do you think this is a situation that many more countries are going to find themselves in though with also with the coronavirus pandemic weve got so many places that are borrowing borrowing borrowing i mean surely is it is this something that more countries could the situation more countries could find themselves. Absolutely i mean this is what i was saying i think this is where it was going to go just now this mission changed both internationally and locally internationally which is it going to bring in the key one which is its not as argentina facing. Like keyshawn there but if you look at the debt you should if you raise your also but equally well portugal greece. I mean there are a whole economies which have even higher there are issues than argentina even though you know it might be the man you keep bringing up. The whole situation could we have many i would say most economies to be in a situation of having to be look at that and how they react to that and it became so does not alone. And this could be getting new and different ways for the conditions of nutrition i think he has also changed the. You know of politics where. Because of the. Things he said and the requirements of of of course we need. More people are supporting us not repaying their parole you see my times. And supporting. Also you. Know it is not the main problem. That. This 1st family. Wont know it has. Crises. Well at least. President yes ok theres a theres theres no doubt that theyve got a lot a lot to be dealing with right now and as you say this is something that more countries will be facing as they continue to spend to try and get out of the crisis brought on by the pandemic well have to leave it there for time thank you for your time on going to get her there are dealing with political economist.

And in the last few days basic medicines have become scarse across the country with authorities shutting down some pharmacies accused of raising prices its krises upon a crisis in a country that moved in time to stop the virus only to find itself hit with deadly force a lesson that.

The. Mark wells is hoping things are beginning to get back to something approaching normal he runs an Estate Agency in london since physical house viewings restarted last week after a long lockdown marks arranged a steady stream of visits to this property and he says business is surprisingly brisk we opened our doors less than a week ago and you know the flat we had 10 viewings multiple its on its just going under awfully close to the asking price another property just just looks like its going to wander off the asking price just under a 1000000. 00 pounds but that optimism is far from universal between march and april applications for home loans fell by more than 50 percent and theres still huge uncertainty about the economy and job losses now the center for economics and business is predicting u. K. House prices will fall by as much as 13 percent this year a lot of people are very worried about their jobs and they dont want to take on big commitments when theyre worried about jobs they think that if they lose their job and get a job job they may be paid less and the combination of these things means that the amount of money people prepared to spend on we think going out in the future is now just less than it was previously. The pandemic is also having a huge effect on commercial property one company into which owns huge malls like this in britain has suffered a slump in rental payments as many shops shut down now it wants extra time to pay back its own debts while in the us 1. 00 survey said that in april Shopping Malls collected only 28 percent of rents and then theres a question of office space social media giant twitter base in this building have told. Their employees they can return to work once offices reopen but if they choose to they can stay working from home forever and google and facebook have told various staff they can stay working at home until the end of the year so what does this all tell us about the demand for office space in future you should look at the whole planets isnt your imprint im going yes thats out main chance and also your space density east africa space but thats a most important part in any shape is our average of hog science average also has a complexion impressed small and whether you have the internet and your senate seat to support or walking from home i get is the big question mark so nobodys predicting the end of the office but with millions of people working remotely and with more people relying on shopping online than ever before these are Uncertain Times for everyone including real estate investors.
