The w. H. O. Has repeated its warning that some countries are not doing enough to fight the virus uganda in East Central Africa has stepped up precautionary measures in the hope of protecting its people and sluggish economy it attracts considerable foreign capital from china. The arriving at Entebbe International airport in uganda is not the end of your journey next you have to traverse the medical screening process has been put in place to keep coronavirus out of the country. Hundreds of people have already been put into isolation after passing through the checks some of them within moments of landing everyone isnt a road has to act fast even the airlines normally somebody having a fluke of their lives in 4 months and it began from the airport but all its arms are taken full and all negative. So as we talk in uganda we still dont have anybody for a ride off to keep it that way the uganda north orat is sipping extra cautious this group has arrived from south korea the country with the 2nd highest number of coronavirus cases of the 700 people have been isolated since arriving in uganda almost 500 from the worst affected country china pale james remembers one of them. Yeah i did it presented with a cough and sneeze ing and when you checked. This sentence. And we didnt take any chances we took them for the blood samples which are the right of an outbreak would be a huge setback for a country that the World Bank Says needs to speed up its growth if its to avoid a jobs crisis thats one reason why the uganda know authorities are trying to ensure no one infected with corona virus takes it out of the air force. Ties between africa and china a strong thats threatening the continents economies as the virus spreads china finances 19 percent of africas Infrastructure Projects making it the largest known african investor compare that to the e. U. You know the brings 5 percent to the table this could be an opportunity for europe and the Growth Prospects a good a 4 percent boost in Gross Domestic Product for north africa is expected this year for east africa were talking about over 6 percent of course the numbers could change huge volumes of trade are at stake here you also got global Commodity Prices to think about well get to that later in the show 1st of all lets talk about african growth and viral spread with you would have one who from the German African Business Association how worried are you about business between germany and africa 1st of all yet this time being not specially worried because we also see that its a great times for the african countries and we see disruption and the global value chains we have at the time being time ness and every single value chain and we do think that africa can step in here africa depends heavily on china though i mean thats something you cant change overnight but we do see some countries uganda for example looking to places like india the united arab emirates. To import because theyve been able bands in so many cases in china. Will that include the e. U. Though it will look as far as europe well i do think that africa many african countries have been looking and europe or the time its just a european that sort of still have some glasses on so we just have to make sure that were taking up the pieces now and that we take the chances that we definitely get why the lack of interest from europe. Its again and again a question of Risk Perception. African continent still especially in duminy seen as a very Risky Business continent. But i do think that we have opportunities we have been saying that many times and also the Risk Perception of course rona is very different in africa i have not that many cases as you said before and its its really that the africans say well we have malaria you know corona is not going to be our thing and i hope that theyre going to be right. Tell me more about some of the stop performers in Africa Senegal for example and whats not to like there are you seeing huge Growth Numbers but it is that something that puts off german Business People do they think wow thats so high it could suddenly collapse next year no i dont think that they afraid of that in senegal in the francophone countries we have to admit that its still the french that are very strong there the germans still dont. Not very familiar with the french just to start with but we do think this specially san diego but also. There they are really the star office in the region and if they manage to keep the macroeconomic factors stable then we believe that the growth is really going to be staying i have the oil coming up that will protect an hour and 2020 so there are lot of good factors coming up youre talking about economic stability what about political stability because to be realistic at the end of the day thats what the germans want to see thats what they want to see that strew that its not political stability as such its a question of do we have a rule of rule of law or not and that can be that can be stabilized with any government to be quite frank. But i do think theyre on a good way concerning their governments as well the have more stable governments they have good ministers coming in we see so many delegations coming in and they are highly educated really good people that are striving to get their country forward and see things change judith thank you very much for giving a very welcome. Well ranzo minister says opec ministers have agreed on an extra one and a half 1000000 barrel a day cut in Oil Production they meet for 2 days and began tehran says the deal allows it to remain exempt from the reduction handshakes aside or should i say corona virus where for shakes as big tension over getting known opec member russia are on board prices have dropped 0. 25 in standard because of a global slump in demand. And lets bring in afterthoughts pandey hes tracking the story for us from bonn as it will be cuts help cure a Global Economy hit by a virus but ben this would certainly sued the oil markets which have taken a bad thing as you just mentioned as far as the World Economy is concerned a lot depends on how the countries fight through the wires how is it how far or is it going to spread in the for the how is it going to be contained how long is it going to last of these are the questions that is going to actually determine if the World Economy is actually really cover or not from this wire is to tell you the truth we dont even know the true extent of the destruction caused by wires to the World Economy where will this leave african nations that rely on crude revenues in many cases. Well absolutely i mean you not much would change for them if the deal goes through they will have to cut some additional were 1000 barrel of oil a day in production as far as im goal is concerned it is already over complying with the court so i guess it does not need for haps to go in for additional cuts there it has already seen production decline because of natural reasons nigeria on the other hand has been under complying so again perhaps a design matter for it if it gets do if its told to cut the additional some 1000 barrels of oil so not much changes as far as the production concerned but they would hope that the world prices go up from here because its a key source of revenue as you just mentioned the source of. These countries. Thank you very much for the analysis.
