Is standing by for us in hong kong for an update on whats going on in Southeast Asia 1st to the indian capital new delhi and my colleague elizabeth purana hi there liz if this goes the way we think it might go is doesnt have a massive impact on the economy because so many indians its a very hand to mouth existence. Yeah absolutely peter an economy that was already experiencing a significant slowdown before coronavirus now as you mentioned india is curfew from 7 oclock in the morning to 9 pm at night most people in the country a listening to Prime Minister in the day in the room or these requests that he made to the nation on thursday asking people to stay at home and saturday saw the biggest jump in the number of cases there are now 3 141. 00 cases 41. 00 foreign nationals 6 people have died so far and there is a lot of speculation peter that the lockdown is going to be extended beyond sunday and already states around the country including Barbara Starr in punjab. Have extended the lockdown other states have shut their borders i think go ahead with a car and northeastern states have shut the border and while a lot of the country is eerily quiet we did see some very busy scenes at a train station in. In the state of bihar where many migrant laborers were returning many of them i would laborers around india from be hard they were returning and what the Indian Railways has now done to stop people to stop migrant laborers daily wage earners from rushing back to the villages that theyre from is Indian Railways has now canceled all passenger trains to till the end of the month this is going to be a massive challenge for the government where so many people as you mentioned have to work every day to make a living we were speaking to Street Vendors a few days ago and they were telling us that while the government advises people to stay at home and to do social distancing well if they didnt go out they their families would simply die of hunger so how is the government going to support all of those people a massive number. Of indians who need to work every day we have had some state governments and nouns how theyre going to help in daily wage laborers and also the poor were waiting to still hear how the Central Government is going to do that for them right now the biggest challenge is how to stop Community Transmission in the country with 1300000000 people liz thank you so much well talk to lisa im sure with more of whats happening in thailand and other parts of Southeast Asia joins us live here on aljazeera in hong kong whats the picture across your region. Peter in thailand as you mentioned cases have spiked by 188 in one day that means in one day the number of infections in thailand have increased about 30 percent there are now nearly 600 infections the country from the start of very vigilantly protect its borders topping people from high risk countries from entering when the outbreak 1st started months ago now theyre seeing a rise in domestic cases and this is mainly due to an event in bangkok about 5000. 00 people attended a boxing match earlier this month the people spread out across the country following that and people at that boxing match were said to have been infected the coronavirus and so the spike were seeing right now is as a result of that the Health Ministry says most of the new cases in bangkok are in bangkok and from young people who havent heated their calls to start social the social distancing and stop social activities despite a partial lockdown of the capital in singapore the government is struggling what theyre calling imported cases people coming in from overseas over the past week cases have nearly doubled in this is mainly peak due to people coming in from outside from other countries where infections are rising either coming back to singapore or travelling through singapore so the government has put a lockdown again on its borders saying that anyone who is not from singapore a resident or a citizen cannot come into the country so short term visitors and transit people transitting are banned and people who are living in singapore residents and citizens will be put into quarantine meanwhile in china which has managed to stem their number of new infections over the past 3 days theyve had infections only from imported cases for the 1st day its broken the snap for the 1st day there is a. Mystically transmitted case now this. Is heightening concerns in china which is warned about the fact that they have been able to manage the infections in the country now their biggest concern is people coming back to the country and so what theyre doing is diverting flights from beijing to screen passengers before allowing them back into the capital and increasing their quarantining and screening of passengers across the country from overseas thanks very much live to the iranian capital tehran and my colleague. Just in the past weve had this nationally televised address from the ayatollah what did he say. Well this is an annual speech that the Supreme Leader ayatollah ali Company Makes and in it he lays out the roadmap the political roadmap for the future of the country he said a couple of Different Things he said its important to be patient in the face of adversity he said we have to make sure the Domestic Production continues to go up but the main takeaway here was that the United States despite the coronavirus outbreak in the country the United States of america is still your biggest enemy he said we have many enemies but the most sinister are the americans and then he went on a long list of name calling he also acknowledged that with the coronavirus it is certainly a scary time but then he said that despite the fact that it is a scary time we cannot take the offers of medical assistance and and medical aid from the United States seriously and then he went on to do something that is relatively remarkable considering he is the most powerful man in the country perhaps the most one of the most powerful men in the region and by virtue of that arguably one of the most powerful men in the world the Supreme Leader leaned into what is essentially been a Conspiracy Theory thats been floating around iran for many weeks now and he suggested that he doesnt know whether this is true or not but then went on to a detail scenario of describing how the United States may have been behind bringing the coronavirus to iran how they may be manipulating iranian genetics to. Push a specific strain to affect iranians more than anyone else and then he said offers of medical assistance and doctors flying into the country would perhaps only be there to make the situation worse for the iranian people it was really something that its something he said before weve heard this from Senior Leaders in iran before and he said that despite the fact that it may not be true quote 40 years of experience as taught us the americans cant be trusted now why might he Say Something like that well the fact is whether this is true or not is not really the point all the iranian government needs is to create doubt within its own population about the nature of the coronavirus to try and continue to push on the agenda despite this Public Health outbreak that the United States remains irans public enemy number one. Zain thanks very much well talk to you too later here on aljazeera well the number of deaths in italy has now reached another daily high almost 800 in the latest effort to stop the spread of the virus the government has ordered all that essential factories and businesses to close challenge as the european picture from under this military convoy in northern italy is carrying a grim cargo 30 coffins with the bodies of 30 coronavirus victims headed to a small village for chromate because there are too many covert 19 dead in the nearby city of burger mo and with italy recording its deadliest day of the outbreak yet with another nearly 800 deaths that could be more convoys like this needed spain now has the 3rd highest number of infections worldwide with around 25000 the death toll has passed 1300 now to help madrid and barcelona are converting Exhibition Centers into field hospitals for the sick germany has had a spike in confirmed cases up to more than 16 and a half 1000 and there are now temporary fences on its border with switzerland the German Government is considering whether to bring in a full nationwide ban on going outside.
