Sri lankas new cabinet has been sworn in a week after the governing party won a landslide victory in parliamentary elections its a 1st for the country the ceremony was held at an ancient buddhist temple in the central city of candy the election win does pave the way for the Prime MinisterMahinda Rajapaksa and his brother president go to by rajapaksa to amend the constitution mel fernandos is in the capital colombo she says concern is growing over the future of minorities under the new government. Everyone is trying to the edge of what this government holds for so long in the future well the fact that weve had essentially a government thats not had to rely on minority votes for that massive victory is something that is a little bit of a concern because theyve proved for us of the president ial election in november 29th even now at the parliamentary elections that they can pretty much going to lower and going alone essentially to give them a 2 thirds majority a controlling stake in parliament so how that impacts on the way the mechanism of government takes place in terms of the actual cabinet thats being named that out 8 of relatively few minority representatives of very much the supporters being included so as to how inclusive its going to be or they feel this is a day to toby is something that well have to wait and see. If these 30 people are still missing in a week after a huge blast in beiruts 173 of those confirmed that tens of thousands of homes remain uninhabitable on tuesday in the beirut Community Held a vigil to oana the lungs last seen a hole to has more from lebanon. A moment of silence for the dead the wounded and the missing Church Bells Rang alongside the muslim call to prayer for a few moments at least this deeply divided and broken nation came together. Lebanon remembered a moment that changed the lives of so many people its been a week since the explosion of beirut port this. Sure id lived and homes just meters from the blast site people gathered to demand justice and accountability so all those in power knew about the explosives a report on the risk the lives of the people the should be an International Investigation because we dont trust the lebanese investigations lebanese authorities including the president knew there was a large stockpile of Ammonium Nitrate at the port. But the 10 firefighters who died in the blast were not aware of the risks when they were sent to put out the fire of unknown origin were up against incompetence were all up against corruption were up against all that system that got us where we are today and its the whole system that is wrong its also a sin that is flawed we want bury our dead before we bury their corruption before we bury them the blast deep in the already dire economic crisis which pushed half of lebanons 5000000 people into poverty aid agencies are distributing food and medicine filling the void left by a government that has long failed to provide basic services the state is close to bankruptcy this is all that it got from the doctor on the hospital loans of course. Not so i am i lost my job 1st and i lost my home and i lost my god from schools private hospitals were owed billions of dollars by successive governments which left the Public Sector ill equipped and underfunded i just want to say to the International Community if you want if you can help the institutions that really. Were substituting. The country and the governments role towards its people it will be a very interesting step the government has now resigned though it will remain as a caretaker of ministration until a new cabinet is formed these people want what they call an independent salvation government but there are others who still support the sectarian system that they believe protects that they want a National Unity government that will bring back the same political elite. That is what people fighting for a new country fear they have the will but not the tools to bring change. French president in and where mccall is leading an International Initiative to solve the crisis he says lebanon needs fundamental change and a new political order he didnt elaborate zeneca there beirut now to 0 as other correspondent covering the aftermath of the explosion Bernard Smith joins us now from school in beirut so badly damaged in the blast bernard very close to the epicenter of the explosion what was the impact like this. Piece of this is the school of the 3 doctors were about. 600 meters away from the port thats a french team who are helping to clear the school and trying to secure it so that classes can start again all of us several months away its beiruts Oldest School and one of a dozen schools that were damaged by the blast there is an enormous challenge here to rebuild places like this because of the scale of the blast 3 kilometers in the number from the poor 3 kilometer radius buildings were damaged fortunately school at the time was closed there was a playgroup on that left finished about an hour and a half before the explosion and the school had anyway been closed because of coronavirus the principal was hoping to Start School Early at the beginning of september earth few weeks earlier that is not clearly going to happen but they still hope that within a few months they can restore and secure this building enough that they can get school back again so i guess thats the key question bernard as far as the education authorities are concerned the teachers and the children because so many of the buildings cannot be salvaged but that one where you are in theory can be saved. Yes it can but the problem for everybody in that rebuilding beirut is not just the cost getting access to funds its getting the materials that they need to do that rebuilding lebanon does not have much of an Industrial Base so pretty much everything they need will be important the glass the masonry the wiring everything that you could possibly need to be rebuild a building comes from overseas and need the funds released to bring it in and then the practical challenge is when the port is out of action the main port is out of action of getting it in what other stuff is queuing up at the other ports in tripoli foodstuffs medicine is so its a whole combination of challenges that they face in the French Military assistance so i was speaking to earlier on they say could be many many months of rebuilding is difficult to say how long its going to say but there is an enormous task at hand one of the Biggest Challenges that the people ive been speaking to say that face many thanks Bernard Smith reporting live from that school in beirut.
