They are well ahead of the game and that is something that we as economists can definitely see when we look at the numbers for danish gdp, current accounts, tax income and so on. It is very visible that all this money is really flowing in very rapidly. But it should be said also that a lot of it is flowing back out because a lot of the owners, the shareholders, are living across the world and also us Danish People who are not working there, we are not feeling it so much in that sense that we are not getting paid for that but of course it is nice to see and there are some benefits. There is tax money coming in and it is helping to keep Interest Rates down in denmark because it strengthens the currency. Alanjoyce is a name that has dominated the Airline Industry down under. Now, hes set to retire early, amid controversy over how he ran the airline. The Chief Executive of the Australian Flag carrier qantas has quit two months ahead of planned, after a difficult few weeks for the company. Joyce, who has held the post for 15 years, says his departure will help the firm move ahead. Vanessa hudson will take over as qantas first female boss. 0ur International Business correspondent theo leggett explains why mrjoyce has left early. His departure has been coming and its been brought forward for very good reasons. If you look solely at the Financial Performance of qantas, then you would be justified in saying, why on earth is Mrjoyce Leaving 7 because as you say, they have just recorded a record annual profit. They steered themselves through the financial crisis. In financial terms, this is a Robust Company and throughout his tenure, mrjoyce focused on cutting costs. He focused on facing down unions, he focused on increasing profits, and hes done all of that. The problem is that a lot of this has come at the expense of qantas reputation with its staff and with consumers. And over the past couple of years, these pressures have been starting to mount up. So in the wake of the covid pandemic, when qantas was returning to service, Customer Service was seen as being very poor. There were problems with baggage handling, there were problems with cancellations. All of that has added up. On top of that, theres been a scandal over qantas selling tickets for services that allegedly at least it knew had already been cancelled. Thousands of services which had been cancelled up to a month or more even before they were booked, theyd already been cancelled. So that is being pursued by australias Competition Regulator and the airline potentially faces quite steep fines. The companys been fighting a losing legal battle for a couple of years over its decision to sack 1,700 Ground Handling workers back in 2020. It outsourced theirjobs that was supposedly done illegally. Courts in australia have agreed with that, but its gone to the high court thats still being fought. So theres all of these pressures coming together and, as i say, if it were just the Financial Performance of the company, you can look at that and say qantas has succeeded in upping shareholder returns, but thats come at a cost of high prices and poor Customer Service and that is whats letting the company down. And mrjoyce has become a focal point for this. So his successor, vanessa hudson, shes going to have to keep the finances in Good Condition as qantas faces more competition, but also rebuild bridges with staff and with passengers. Today marks the end of an era for airbnb hosts in new york city. After years of relaxed rental agreements, from today, the city council will enforce what they call local law 18. It requires Short Term Rentals like airbnbs to be registered with the city. Listings can only be made by those who actually live in the place theyre renting out and they must be present. The new rules also stipulate that people can only have two guests at a time. In practice, this means thousands of listings not adhering to the new rules would be taken off airbnbs site, and failure to comply could result in up to 5,000 in fines, per stay. The change of law has angered hosts. But advocates for new yorks tenants and communities are hopeful this could ease the citys housing shortages. Dr David Wachsmuth is Associate Professor of Urban Planning at Mcgill University in montreal. He has researched the impact of airbnb on new york extensively, and talked to me about the impact of the decision, on the city, and on the company. Right now, new york is one of the top Tourist Destinations in the world. And at least, looking back over the last decade, airbnb has been a pretty significant part of the Tourist Accommodation landscape. But the fact is that unlike a lot of lets say smaller towns, Resort Destinations that really rely on home sharing to ensure an adequate supply of Tourist Accommodations new york is not exactly hurting for hotels. So, if the change in rules results in many thousands of airbnbs being deactivated as i think most people expect it will, it is still going to amount to much more than a drop in the bucket it is still going to amount to not much more than a drop in the bucket in terms of the overall flow of visitors who come to the city every year. So thats the impact on new york, talk to me about the impact on airbnb itself. Because we know new york city, a huge generator of revenue for that firm . Thats right. If you go back about a decade ago, new york was the second or Third Largest market for airbnb alongside london and paris. But that hasnt been true for some time now and part of the reason for that is that, frankly, the city governments been at war with airbnb for the last decade, trying to find a way to enforce what they see under a long standing rules prohibiting commercial Short Term Rentals in the city. So, i think airbnb is definitely going to be hurting from the loss of business. But the days where new york was one of their most lucrative markets are actually somewhat in the past at this point. The view there on airbnb and the clampdown in new york city. Other countries and cities perhaps looking at that very closely. In other news the price of oil has revised.

And im very much supported by Inspiring Stories of every day because in every tragedy, there is a story of saving, help, heroism and it inspires me a lot.

Foryour example, on your family . For your example, husband on yourfamily . Foryour example, husband being compared to winston churchill, how do you respond to that . Translation well, it depends. On the way you would like to look at winston churchill. Of course, he is the historical figure. I did not dream about my husband becoming an historic person. Maybe its selfish, but i need my husband, not a historicalfigure beside me. But, on the other hand, if it is about a leader who led his country through the difficulties of war, if that kind of comparison would be accurate, id love it. He really does has the energy, the willpower, the inspiration and stubbornness to go through this war so we finally see our long awaited victory. I believe in him. And i support him. I know that he has enough strength. For any other person i know, i think it would be much harder to handle this situation. He really is a very strong and resilient person and this resilience is what we all need right now. The great wall of china was built, so it is said, to protect chinas borders and keep invaders out. But it seems its no match for modern machinery. Take a look at this a road has been carved out through the ancient barrier, allegedly by two Construction Workers using an excavator. Their reason they wanted to create a short cut. With the story heres our beijing correspondent stephen mcdonell. The machinary tracks were the giveaway and you can imagine the scene, the police have arrived, theres The Great Wall Of China and theres a huge hole in it, and they simply followed this trial down, down, down, down, to where there are a couple trail down, down, down, down, to where there are a couple of people sitting next to an excavator. Apparently, we are told according to state media, they questioned a man and a woman who admitted they had punched a hole through chinas most famous historical structure in order to create a short cut for them in the future to get from point a to point b, presumably they live nearby the great wall. This will seem shocking to people across the world but to explain a little bit what its like The Gre
