Prima roger around there for us in stay safe primo well be talking to you throughout the evening well lets now go to jesse karyn jesse youre in addition stated we know there have already been deaths there just how prepared are people feeling. Well as a matter of assurance according to the government of what he said the worst is over an already said because a land falling vest been one that started and there was wind speed which process was through joining this trip so that i can buy less of that and i think almost all of so did the expense im going to put up more than 8200 Kilometers Per Hour and thats as far as widespread damage in those 80 especially when by listening to this case that ive been lost after. These have been reported a lot of damage of people have been reported but the exact data maisies that to be accepted in the District Administration needs to get back on this but thankfully no further deaths have been reported except the in friend who died this morning as as a wall fell on him this morning so as far from that no other casualty have been reported so far but the good news is that the worst is over by now the author does have to get back to that his tradition was absolute and to just to carry on and i dish of fate for us well thats now speak to town via chattering hes live for us in the band Additional Capital dhaka country as weve been saying a Global Pandemic and now this just how have evacuees been coping trying to socials distance amid amid the possible onslaught of the fine cutting. Yeah thats a very difficult situation its a very densely populated country i mean so far what we know is 2400000 people have been sheltered in designated areas now these cyclon shelters or schools that are used as cycling shelters are not you know very that there dont have enough space so in a limited space hundreds and thousands of people are crammed into different parts of the coastal areas its not going to provide any social distance call that is if its there its going to spread unfortunately now theres a bigger challenge of my mother shes facing right now the cycling as we speak it started hitting bangladesh in the southwestern coastal beldin division which is now to calcutta and the shown there by name we spoke to our contacts in those area they said the sea level is rising theres been titled subj already several houses been destroyed as often are we cannot independently confirm but we know that one person an elderly man of 70 years old died when a tree fell in your fashion area another person rescue worker drone earlier in the day in a stormy sea so most of the reports going to start coming out enough to 34 hours once the cyclon crosses roads communication will be slapped electricity will be gone and people will undoubtedly lose their crops and fisheries in the coastal but a major challenge in this pandemic crisis times when all of the economies faltering and thats not shia and weve also been talking about these hundreds of thousands of ranger refugees weve now been told to shelter in place as the storm arrives given the strength of the storm is not going to be enough protection for them. There is 50 shows that been made on hand ready in case they have to move them now we also know that there are 100. 00 plus knowing i refugees who are kept in quarantine an island called bosham chart insult central they have been put into a shelter because that island is very dangerous during cyclon time not 3rd this did come from theyve been putting to shelter name to National Organization of migration said that rescue workers and this shelter ready fortunately i of the storm is not going to catch cox but that most likely that southwestern part but its going to be devastating in case that wind speed is high and there is torrential rain it could mean mudslide it could mean flood it could mean all the shelters should stop is going to be blown away which we seen in 2017 in june in the psych prone most of the roads are made out of polythene and bamboo so theyre very vulnerable undoubtedly a major challenge again and a refugee camp as well chadri there for us in the bangladeshi capital dhaka thank you very much ted we will continue following this very closely and come back to the studio were going to talk to al jazeera meteorologist rob mccallum hes been following this very closely weve now seen landfall what happens next he carries on as hes been following who you have a towards calcutta called custer if you like we should be there in 2 or 3 hours that it will weaken but thats only stage one you saw what the wind damage is likely to be but we did the 1st so you know following that you got the storm so sure lets have a look behind me this is where it was what ive done is cut of the satellite picture give you no idea of where the main rain belt is and how far it spreads so it goes it goes the other side of the coast to be in ma and bangladesh and of course in addition and west bengal but official landfall to 18 minutes past 5 local time to say it seems the following the who if it was a direct line to kolkata winds about 155 to be brass the equivalent of a category 2 hurricane the storm surge is to follow the amount of rain over the city. We know that 250. 00 millimeters all more in 24 hours the path it will take over the next few hours seems to be more or less directly but just east of north and eventually to northern bangladesh and towards baton and northern india as i said thats thats just rain the immediate future is the storm surge what i got here is a way that moves along the coast because the storm went up the river who really it will be to the east of that the river itself may go even experience a storm surge but all the mangroves and the southern part of biased right towards the coast will see a series of tides next to ties probably lifted by 3 to 5 meters in dating all that low lying land and thats of course brought in because the winds are still blowing so although the rain is further west the winds are still blowing the surface of that water so that takes a storm surge and of course the big waves its at one stage were 50 meters tall so theres still a lot of battering from the water to come despite Everything Else thats gotten us 15 minutes of thank you rob. Well lets take you to some other news now and a president ial election is underway in burundi despite the risk of coronavirus versions their own choosing a leader to replace whos now stepping down after 15 years in Power International observers were told that they must quarantine for 14 days and that effectively balled them from working raising doubts over just how free and fair this poll is lets take a closer look now at the main player is fast as outgoing president here in charisma hes a former rebel leader whos escaped multiple efforts by the International Community to try him for alleged human rights abuses or the man with the best chance of replacing him is his ally and Ruling Party Leader everest india she me she has been part of the former president s Movement Since 1900 was also a key player in a peace deal to end civil war his closest challenge as agathon the leader of the Main Opposition Party hes run for the presidency multiple times well our correspondent malcolm webb has been following the story from nairobi from where he joins us now malcolm this is all of you see happening in the context of a Global Pandemic so all people have theyve been coming out to voters.

This wasnt the way louis c. Arrow wanted to bury his father where. The local authorities ordered a rushed late night burial which luis on his phone already going to integrate well there were orders that the body must be buried and there was no turning back so the only thing i could do was try and stream it so that my friends on facebook could be there with me at the time because they forbid people to be close to the grave there were even police that kept people away luis is convinced his father a pilot for a nicaraguan airline died of cope with 19.

The funeral home owners all communicate with each other and we learn each other vehicles and things like that weve buried about 200. 00 people a night so far without relatives without candles without anything. Their experience contrasts with the governments official figures for corona virus deaths which show very few so far unlike other latin american countries president daniel hasnt implemented social distancing measures he says the spike in deaths this year from pneumonia has little to do with the coronavirus pandemic. We have a normal cycle in mourning the deaths. The important thing is that in beating this pandemic there is no crisis in nicaragua.

The digging fresh graves in the symmetry of its to pull up a district in mexico city. Outside the hearse is a queuing to get in but with the danger of infection all around ramon continues to sell his flowers almost oh yeah look at what i want to look at he got were living day to day we have nothing saved and if i stop working what will i eat what will my family 8. Days to pull up as mexicos most populous district and the hardest hit by cove it despite that life and commerce hasnt stopped. Mits can quarantines definitely bit of the soul for i. T. With people encouraged rather than fools to stay home and authorities often turning a blind eye towards those breaking the rules not in the us but make you have to do just that the middle because were not allowed to open until the start of june but the truth is we cant last out any more. The countrys just had its highest daily number of cases. That hasnt stopped mexico citys government announcing plans to reopen the capitol but districts like this one never really shutdown in the 1st place just look at the amount of people bank cars that are out on the street so i should mention that not every business here is open to any of those that can afford to close have done so but its pretty clear that in the more working class areas of the city there are a lot of people out and about that it was those kept on driving his bus through the pandemic he says some of his passengers refuse to even acknowledge theres a virus at all i better get as close as we were and there are people that get on board that face most theyre foolish they dont get it but unfortunately i make my living from them so i have to put up with it. Top Health Officials say more and more mexicans are going out before the end of core into the same Health Officials are adamant the cases will go down any day now those 2 statements dont seem to match up especially here in the east the pull up or john homan 00 in the u. K. Of the Prime Minister is promising to step up the countrys code the 1000 tracing capabilities responding to criticism over an alleged failure and testing farce johnson says officials will be able to track 10000 new cases a day by the end of the month well lets now go to our correspondent hes in london john i hear there was a bit of action parliament today. Yes i think this week Boris Johnson the Prime Minister came off slightly better than he has done in the previous 2 encounters against the label edict here starmer when he faced this very forensic targeted unemotional brand of the of karma the fraud prosecutors questioning on the perceived failures of the government during the covert 19 epidemic this time Boris Johnson is somewhat better somewhat on more on top of his material able to deal with questioning on the likes of the care crisis in this country star questioning the governments assertion that it threw a protective ring around the care sector while it was at the same time allowing patients to be discharged from hospital in to care homes until april the 15th without requiring proof that they were in fact not coded positive and able to sort of push on from that line of criticism by highlighting this vastly enhanced testing ability here in this country now testing as much or more than any other european country at the moment pointing out that 125000 care home staff have now been tested with the death rate falling but the real thrust of care starmer as questioning here was on test trace an isolating mechanism so crucial in being able to lift the lockdown safely without risking a 2nd wave he wanted to know when those mechanisms would finally definitively be in place and quite why the government had since mid march given up all effort at test and trace this is nearly 10 weeks he said in a critical period without effective tracing that he said is a huge hole in our defenses will this was Boris Johnsons response. Today you are i am confident that we will have a test and trace operation that will enable us if all the other conditions are satisfied if only it is entirely provisional that will enable us to make progress and i can tell him also that by the 1st of june already we recruit 24000 trackers and by the 1st of june we will have a 25000 they will be capable of tracking 10000 keep the contact of 10000 new cases a day. So Boris Johnson not overflowing with conviction there but able to redeem this section by making a real measurable policy pledge 25000 traces in place by the 1st of june thats a week on monday able to deal with 10000 new cases in order to control future outbreaks its the sort of pledge that will restore a measure of Public Confidence particularly since june the 1st is the date when the government hopes that schools Primary Schools might start to go back amid real skepticism in the Education Sector and among parents when these 2 meet again in 2 weeks time after next weeks recess well theyll either be able to talk about the relative success of those tests trace and isolate measures or care starmer might again be able to challenge the government on yet another perceived shayler turn to how theyre our correspondent outside westminster for us thank you very much tony.

However youre watching out of there and thats reminder about top stories this hour one of the most powerful cyclings in years has forced more than 2000000 people to seek shelter in eastern india. Bangladesh wind speeds of up to 170 kilometers an hour reported but the storm has weakened slightly sense. An election is underway in burundi despite the risk of the coronavirus. Choosing a new president with long time either stepping down after 15 years in power. And opposition leaders in nicaragua are accusing president done youll take of covering up virus stands by ordering hurried burials at night the Health Ministry reports 17 deaths doctors say the total could be much higher. Now the United Nations says Global Human Development is set to decline this year as a result of the coronavirus pandemic thats the 1st time its happened and that he is since the un started measuring the worlds Education Health and Living Standards global pick capita income the cea is expected to fall by 4 percent 86 percent of Primary School age children in the worlds poorest countries and not getting an education and 20 percent in the worlds richest countries women and children in particular and girls are earning and saving less than theres an increase in gender based violence well we can now speak to pedro consists out hes the director of the Human Development report office at the u. N. Development program he joins us now from new york pedro thank you for joining us theres obviously been a lot of discussion around the health and Economic Impacts of this pandemic but it will clearly go well beyond that weve seen other crises before so how does whats happening now compare for instance with the Global Financial crisis. Well the Global Financial crisis was a crisis that affected the level of Economic Activity and it was a hard hit on the income of many countries and many people around the world whats unique and unprecedented really about the 1000. 00 pandemic is that its 1st and foremost obviously a major health shock and it should remain our priority but its also depressing our economies as you mention and furthermore some of the container containment measures that are being put in place are closing down schools which are not enabling many kids around the world to learn so new being the 3 elements together which are the components of what we knew and if you call the Human Development weve seen for the 1st time the possibility of major sheet to Human Development the wrong world petter i say the uns using this phrase a magnifying glass for inequalities i mean as is often the case where going to say developing countries bad the brunt of this reversal how can they try to claw it back. Well i think if we look at education we can see the impact of the inequalities that were in place before the crisis magnifying as you say the impact of the cries and so we know that theres a Digital Divide with a difference across countries and across families in many countries in excess to the internet for instance now today those kids that have access to the internet are able to continue to learn continue to be engaged in education but that is not an option open to those that do not have access to the internet so not closing these gaps on for instance the Digital Divide. Is not enabling many people around the world to respond as well as others are able to do the crisis so let me ask you then what can governments do about these trends particularly as many of those governments are going to be confronting them at a time when they themselves will be reeling from the economic fallout of this pandemic and have far fewer as also. But they are also mobilizing resources to respond to the crisis our colleagues at the i. M. F. Estimate that globally the physical response to the crisis involves about 8 trillion dollars and so the decision really on how to allocate these resources and what were saying with our report is that its important to have an approach that is focused on reducing inequalities 1st but 2nd also addressing long term challenges like Climate Change so that we not lock ourselves seen in the vestments that make addressing long term issues like Climate Change much if you cant well at this very critical time it also seems that were watching a pullback by some countries especially when it comes to engage with multilateral institutions and giving aid how can this be addressed when donors are stepping back to deal with their own domestic issues and the money dries up. Well i think the crisis is showing that. The virus is contained everywhere its not likely to be contained anywhere and so its a reminder off our collective interdependence in the world we live in today and i think there is a glimmer of hope actually in the response that is been taking place around the world with billions of people really taking action social distance and adopt the measures that will help to to contain the virus. Concept that the director of the Human Development report of us at the u. N. Development program thank you for joining us are out of there thank you for having. Taiwans a newly inaugurated president says she wants dialogue with china but rejects reunification after being sworn in for his 2nd and final term time when said both sides have a duty to prevent antagonism and to find ways to coexist rather bribe reports. Taiwans president saying word has promised to continue a precarious policy of seeking a more d independent line from Mainland China while still coexisting with it or level it just. Will not accept the beijing authorities use of one country 2 systems to downgrade taiwan and to undermine the cross street status quo. The one country 2 systems model of shared government which beijing wants to use to reintegrate taiwan is similar to the way hong kong is governed anger at the perceived lack of autonomy under that system led to months of violence protests in hong kong and in taiwan created fears among voters who gave a landslide victory in january president ial election one thing thats clear is that she woke me up on my hand with Chinese Government because shes expected to do that by her constituents who are highly supportive size popularity has been further enhanced by her handling of the coronavirus pandemic transparency combined with a Quick Response kept infections to a minimum winning praise from around the world the regime in beijing certainly does not appreciate the kind of positive attention that i want to has been receiving it has provided a probably on president and opportunity for taiwan to showcase its knowledge its abilities its fuel the controversy over taiwans exclusion from the World Health Organization at the insistence of Mainland China and side has promised to leverage taiwans unexpected increase in stature to get more International Recognition and she sounded like yes she will work hand in hand with countries in the region to make concrete contributions to peace stability and prosperity china has already shown its displeasure with increased military activities around taiwan and coinciding with worsening relations between china and the United States the taiwan straits are likely to witness more saber rattling in the months ahead robert bride al jazeera. A chinese man has finally been reunited with his parents 32 years after he was abducted and its all thanks to face all Recognition Technology to her for. The moment got to hug his parents. After 32 years of searching leaching could finally touch her sons face clinging on to each other making up for lost years this time she told him she wasnt going to let him go. Now you him was snatched in 1988 outside a hotel in Shanxi Province his father had stopped off to get some water he was only 2 years old from then on his mother quit her job and dedicated her life to finding her son as she searched she reunited 29 other children with their parents now was found after a series of tip offs to police his identity confirmed by d. N. A. And facial Recognition Technology now you and was sold to a childless couple in neighboring Sichuan Province they raised him as their own and changed his name he had no idea they werent israel parents until the Police Showed up. When the police came to see me i didnt believe them i was still in shock even after i did a d. N. A. Test its not clear if action will be taken against the couple who wrongly adopted him there are no government statistics on the number of children who disappear every year in china but it is thought to be in the 10s of thousands of duction as became common the 1980 s. The communist partys one child policy was introduced in a country traditionally favoring boys over girls in the last decade more than 6300 kidnapped chinese children have been reunited with their families thanks to d. N. A. Testing in 2016 the government also set up a missing child alert system via social media or text it has successfully reunited many more families and its hoped that new technology such as facial recognition means more children like maui and will be able to meet their parents once again after so long so hard at aljazeera. Well lets now speak to your boss antonopoulos he is a professor at Teesside University in the u. K. And is also editor in chief of the journal trends an organized crime he joins us now from the north for your last child abduction of been long been a problem in china how widespread is it now especially since the one child policy was a polished. The truth is that we dont know because internally it was not system to record Human Trafficking whenever we had discussions with the chinese or so its as to whether we could have. Some access to data. The request was always declined because the issues very sensitive and also or child trafficking is an open problem in china in the media not exactly bund from reporting such cases official said use of internal traffic in do not exist or all of the not publicized. And i keep confidential due to the political sensitivity that actually brought so we really dont know there are estimates that for instance will fall the trafficking victims in the country some 40 to 50 percent of children. And that about 70000. 00 children are kidnapped on a yearly basis. But we dont know exactly what the real scale of the problem is your us Human Trafficking is also notorious for its links to organized crime which you work and i imagine thats all the also the case when it comes to this internal child trafficking in china how keen have the authority has there been to prosecute. Well the authorities are d going to prosecute. Especially when there is a really significant significant organized crime to use because it might be cases in which a single individual is the organizer for or for trafficking scheme. But the problem very often with child trafficking is local protection is in china provincial governments in china are. Basically treated Us Enterprises by the Central Government in terms of Economic Performance and success so in this context local officials primarily have an interest in enhancing local economy performance and regional richey days. Rather than dealing with Human Trafficking is especially. If the child trafficking is beneficial in economic terms the local authorities have very little interest in actually dealing with it in an efficient way know in a robust way there have been cases in which. Were connected with the local authorities. And the there have been cases in which struck because were actually illegal intrapreneur screw exploiting. Big scale exploiting children and their and their businesses were highly profitable so at the authorities decided to turn the blind eye to that activity sure hell us antonopoulos there a professor at Teesside University in the u. K. Really good to get your insights aaron out of there.

Well its about time for sports on his foreign minister thank you so much and i fell owners have back to rule change to aim to add to increasing diversity in the league teams will now have to interview at least 2 minority candidates for head coaching positions the 32 team league has been criticized for its poor track record in hiring minorities in key positions around 70 percent of n. F. L. Players are africanamerican but the league only has 4 non white head coaches minority candidates will also have to be interviewed for general manager roles all the rooney rule was established in 2003 it required at least one minority candidate to be shortlisted by n. F. L. Teams for head coach vacancies for the 2900 season 8 n. F. L. Teams hired new had coaches but only one team the Miami Dolphins chose a non white coach as of 2020 the n. F. L. Has 3 africanamerican head coaches the same number there were 17 years ago when the rooney rule started a proposal to reward teams with an improved draft position if they hired a non white coach didnt kept the go ahead earlier we spoke to robert lee taleb black Sports Online he said the idea had received a lot of backlash. When doing Something Like that i think its offensive to both sides of this equation i dont think if you have to tell a n. F. L. Team where you have to make an incentive of an n. F. L. Team to actually just interview minority candidates by offering the better draft position and stuff like that that is very insulting and it really stands a lot of what you think of the hierarchy d and what you think about some of the owners of the n. F. L. Team and on the flip side you know if im not a minority you know i dont want to feel like i didnt get a job because a team wanted a better giraffe position so they hired so wide that they didnt really want it but they wanted the draft of this year more than they wanted the best qualified person for the job so i thought it was a terrible idea because i thought it was offensive to both parties i thought of the fans and the minority that if it was the to the white males or females who were applying for those jobs as well until the actual ownership from the top down gives more opportunities to minority candidates put them an entry level position so where they can wait work their way up to Foreign Office positions i really do not see much of a change it seems more like a p. R. Move than anything its actually going to make a substantial difference in the hiring of minorities in the n. F. L.
