S. Economy as weve been hearing but its also creating a strange spectacle off the coast of california i was there as rob reynolds reports from los angeles. A sign of Global Economic breakdown floating offshore dozens of huge oil tankers sit it anchor outside the port of los angeles each vessel up to 365 meters long is brimming with tons of crude oil but theres no place to put it or what we have right now is a significant imbalance in supply and demand in the oil markets be asleep driven by significant demand contraction as a result of the economic slowdown translated from corporate economic speak that means that in the global lockdown fewer people are driving to work or anywhere else as evident in these shots of near empty streets in los angeles with so many out of work people are buying less so fewer goods are being trucked from place to place and check out this near empty airport hardly anyone is flying so needs jet fuel u. S. Consumption of petrol diesel and Aviation Fuel plummeted 31 percent since mid march with the price of benchmark texas crude dow 90 percent for the year in normal times we use about 100000000. 00 barrels of oil per day globally and in the month of april experts are estimating that that number is going to be around 75 or 80000000. Barrels a day which is about the amount that was used globally 20 years ago storage tanks on land are chock full so well companies are using ships as expensive storage bins the price charged by shippers for doing so is up to more than 150000. 00 per day and there is more oil on the way a flotilla of 20 Saudi Arabian super tankers is steaming toward the gulf of mexico u.

T. M. The Central Bank Governor says that its only it only finances the government that is not responsible for how any of the money is spent and thats the model that to me we hide nothing in the central bank of lebanon nothing is being done unilaterally and the central bank expenditure belongs to the Financial System in lebanon other than that it is an attack that im not telling the truth to the public of lebanon in order to increase the campaign i keeps the governor of the central bank. One hour from observers at a halt in beirut at the end of the day many lebanese are blaming both the central by the banks the Financial Sector as well as the government the political elite tribe in governing this country for over 30 years for the collapse of the economy the state this close to bankruptcy the local love unease the currency the euro it has devalued 60 percent in the past few days that it has lost value inflation rising more than 50 percent so people are angry what those in power whether those who hold financial power or political power how been doing is really blaming each other for the crisis the Central Bank Governor defending himself saying we fund the states we do not spend money it is the state that spends money and that the state failed to carry out much needed reforms to reduce the budget deficit a few days ago the lebanese Prime Minister has yet insinuate that the Central Bank Governor in one way or another was tampering with Financial Stability in order to topple his government so there is a power struggle underway in this country as the economy worsens on a daily basis more and more people lose their jobs those in power believe the opposition along with the Financial Sector is trying to topple them using using the currency collapse fueling anger in the streets and then you have the opposition who are accusing the ruling elite headed by the iranian backed hezbollah and their allies of trying to take over the Financial Sector in the country so power politics at play as the lebanese become poorer. Human rights activists say that the Philippine Government strict enforcement of lockdowns is led to serious violations committed by police the u. N.

Police have denied allegations of wrongdoing and say they have arrested more than 100000 people since the lockdown was implemented. More than a month ago Human Rights Watch has issued a statement urging the government to investigate reports of abuses and hold officers have committed Rights Violations accountable. I mean its really been subjected to very harsh regulations rebel regard the realities of basic to asia. And that she is going to do so in a lot of anger and frustration on the part of the government says its policies are necessary to fight the spread of the coronavirus but people here tell us the use of what they say easy heavy handed and violent response by police is creating fear and anxiety.
