[000:00:00;00] the the big dreams, brazil's new super talent spring, glory and lots of caps, the locals out will the area around the temples of ankle. what soon be just the tourists and china means big business in columbia that who's paying the price?

the cost. uh, why did i live and get this is walter alexander the older boy we we never found him this. this is the land much. yes. yes, it was his 5th birthday that day talking to you and doesn't quite. and they read this is my lady, my, the mother and i, my wife, she was 29. that then you have anything with young. and here is our 9 month old baby. his name is manuel salvador shop. how those family died in the same place that they lift an avalanche buried, his wife and children in 2022 years where their house one stood there. and now would, in markers in this part of northwestern columbia, the number of avalanches as more than doubled since 2018 that i life is faith and this is nothing you can do about it. i know that there's no point to looking for

someone to blame and visit often there are those responsible. but if you think about it too much, you can lose your mind. i don't, law school is hello. can i help you as soon as a moment? but are there really no culprits to try to understand what's going on here? we have to go back to 2018. the start of an ambitious project. in that year, the multinational china harbor engineering company began building the alto peace of mind. those highway the company and its chinese parent group, c, c, c, c, have built infrastructure and more than $150.00 countries, the parent company, whoever is in just repute for allegedly paying bribes. and that has reached certain questions, is the construction company responsible for the problems of a small community in columbia? what responsibility does the colombian government have for these types of

infrastructure projects and who benefits in the end? maybe even is columbia 2nd largest city. until a few years ago, the city lacked an adequate route to connected with the caribbean coast and the north. now, without del piece to have mounted, those things are different. in the middle of this road is the small town of w e. but since the beginning of 2024 done yet, we've had data has been the mayor equally to have data has lived all his life. and that'd be by since 2016, he has worked in different positions in the governors office and witness 1st hand the construction and impact of the highway on his community. and now that's almost ice. the highway project is not really designed for small cities like ours,

that i mean what the project really does is benefit international trade for the for k. include all because ports are going to be built in robots that can handled goods from all over the world. and that is that in more than the and mainly from china, a country that already accounts for more than 20 percent of its imports, according to official colombian figures for killing the weight and quantify last for the project aimed at exporting local goods. we would all benefit greatly, so that is not a little bit better because we are agricultural producers. if you look at the old roads around here, they're terrible facing the old route passed through the center of the municipality and boost of its economy the but the new road skirts around the community,

causing more than just economic difficulties. an engineer who worked on the road construction for 2 years agreed to talk to dw, but asked to remain anonymous because it'll 2 bottles. this varies, i mean, and i believe that several of those land sights were caused by bad construction practices where they should have worked with machines. they turned to explosives, it was covered and they kind of customer service that made the stone fragile and displayed fruitful products. you know, let's just say a lot of mistakes were made on the spectacle. the largest catastrophe happens in 2020 numerous land slide, said 5 different small communities simultaneously. more than 300 families lost loved ones and all their possessions scale. and they say use us to, as i mentioned, we all know that's a land site or heard on the same mountain where most of the construction was going on in java e boat. we never had such

a land slot. that seems pretty strange. you will, i will kick when will your son and it was on that day that mine was a potter's son turned 5. go ahead. yeah. me are you what that i knew i went out to get kick from my son's birthday and then the avalanche happened. and i couldn't get back home then you up and fell a long time without a mother's a, a simple birthday cake saved his life and made him the sole survivor of his family . dw asks the columbia mythology is on the consortium led by the chinese company about the excessive use of dynamite in the area. the consortium said that node land sites had been reported during the work due to controlled blasting with dynamite. and that the techniques are generally appropriate and have been evaluated during the work, but many and of a but believes that the consortiums malpractice is go beyond its construction techniques,

perhaps with the way they chose their local partners. ok. and they cited copy. there's no secret that the former man is a business man with a lot of business in w, eva con, which enables isn't valley the largest camp that the chinese used was on this man's fire. and lots of the offices that the chinese used for their operations are also owned by this gentleman, the most part just sitting with the parking lots and he even owns the hotels that they use during the project. so yeah, so that was a great conflict of interest company that is a different place along the highway that may say to is an informal neighborhood founded in 2019. today, it is home to around 3000 people. when the building consortium led by the china

harbor engineering company, signed the contract to build the highway in 2015, the neighborhood did not exist yet when the construction work began, things were different. still the company chose to act as if the neighborhood wasn't there. the john or the hundreds already go work for the group between 20212023 live said lama. say to there's a lot. it is that we go and this neighborhood is located above the head of the tunnel in thousands and found that those are the 2 and then about 50 to 60 meters from the tunnel entrance and from that place. and so is this one time what's going on? we have a slope that protects the land so that the water does not want you to wait. i said with that minutes i lose cool. 95 out of those here. but as time goes behind, your slope is cracking and becoming unsuitable and is also damaging the neighborhood and convert. i'm going about it. and so we, the woods are here that they will be an avalanche and take all the families with a lot of, i mean,

as i don't wanna get from these places where out to piece the of mark those passes through are not alone. the problems that occurred here are not isolated, cases says money cut that enemy quote to an expert who investigates chinese infrastructure projects in latin america. the just bad, like many other companies, they go as far as they are allowed to meet in w e. but for example, certain requirements were ignoring all particularly environmental ones. a lot of the people are looking at my ceiling is expected of me, i'm being self particularly additionally, there are other irregularities that could ultimately lead to corruption problems. show the on about the same as it go to see us. the construction project also damaged graves. some of which were 2600 years old. and one of the oldest archaeological sites in columbia, the consortium bought the land to use as a material depot,

increase the dollars is one of the archaeologists who worked on the emergency excavations, that the consortium organized. but all about sick when they realize that the complexity of the archaeological site and all the tools that were there, they decided not to continue with the excavations to preserve the archaeological heritage, but also to save the costs and avoid time delays. but the damage was already done. one 3rd of the burial mountains are gone. and what about the people who live here? experts call for more concern for the communities involved so that they will also benefit from large infrastructure projects. nowhere near people, nowhere near people they produce whether or not investment projects are beneficial will depend on both sides and of those factors e, i. e. and here it is very important to bear in mind that if we want to have a profitable relationship with china, our institutions must be strong enough to allow that relationship to be profitable for both sides. this global quite

a bit and the beat almost gets isabella's and separate, which was the because not only the past, but also the future of entire communities are at stake. the, when people have to leave to make way for a road or surface mine for entire villages, missed up sticks because of rising sea levels. or when governments expel entire population groups, then it's the case of forced resettlement. and it keeps happening all over the world. every day when see not wonder is how long she can continue working in her shop. she is worried because she is supposed to leave the area and take her store and her 3

children. the authorities want them all to move the mile. so will be right. the man has been, has several times and they say i have to go to my and they threaten me how i called in so i can hardly sleep anymore. oh, i can type decided to stay as long as i kind of like, you know they, i know what they don't don't calling him some guy took her by selling snacks and drinks. she has enough to pay for her children's education. she and many of her neighbors make most of their money from tourists. the own family lives within the extensive grounds of ankle lock. the huge temple complex covers more than 200 square kilometers and includes several 100 temples. at sunrise there was a magical atmosphere and the places with the best views are in great demand. i think a lot is one of the most famous attractions in all of asia,

thousands of visitors from all over the world, walk through the unesco world heritage site. every day, many of the locals have lived here for generations. i think that was really great. also like all the local people this or friendly all the one to tell us all these amazing stories about about everything and they also for end of the one so. so say last stuff we also went through the took switch over here and it was also, i really, really great experience. well, it was really nice to be with all the tours, but everyone really calm and peaceful and the locals are always really nice. around 25 kilometers from anchor was a new city is being built. it is called run to x and the can. bodie and government wants 10000 families to leave their homes near the temple complex and move to the settlement. that's still a construction site. at least there's water and electricity here,

no young she yet could no longer take the constant pressure from the authorities and agreed to move to run ty at an angle. she lived with her husband, where he worked as a day labour building a life. and this new city seems impossible for her. oh no need no time. your hair is completely different. how much does nothing have? i'm the camera and on crow was able to survive well, even without money. they found probably 8 by i collected hubs and insights in the forest and sold them. now i have to buy vegetables, so i have these extra costs and shape and stuff and come to me today. the only customers out her new neighbors not collect money themselves. none of them are happy here. i hang at the for my the reset of people i know dependent on monthly state support of around a $125.00 previously most earn their own higher incomes. this

is where they once lived. these are the remains of their former home, only the foundation was of the village and ink or i still visible. so far, the government hasn't said what have plans to do with the land near the temples. a spokes person for the responsible authority says it is all the development measured to benefit the locals. the families move voluntarily. the power of the st. this. this is no punishment. this is providing opportunities. they what the, where there was no sanitation. they what they are in the small. busy caught the human rights of organization, amnesty international sees it differently and move to this unfinished satellite city is a force relocation in which human rights are being violated. the group wants unesco to intervene and stand up for the local population. so serious threats

and, and again we're talking about cambodia that has a very long history of very, very violent force eviction. so which is why it is extra important for role for entities like you nice go for outside agencies, world heritage committee, etc. to play that, to fill that gap, the unesco is now publicly expressing concern, saying it did not support the resettlement. the office of the local non governmental organization at hawk is located near the temple complex its liter change them rum, says the government is failing locals. so we'll have people got some good work and people must not be patronized to apply to the government could create better opportunities where people previously live, i'm tired so where they would rather live on something. you have to organize things better than that compete product. and you can't just drive people away against

their will to get the beach. what about what to do when it, the, the, to my, you know, although her sister and many of her neighbors have already moved away when see not, would like to continue running her shop here and, and go a lot. every day she prays to the gods for a better future. young man, item is and come. i still have hope that we can keep this on the on co op codes, how we want to be happy and no longer sofa, no longer be afraid from the house. so i want my family to stay head forever for tourist tank or what is 1st and foremost, a spectacular magical place for locals. the temple complex full of tourists is their home and the basis of their livelihood. and

the lots of money is spent on really good football players on the trunk, send markets, but how much exactly, you vent has paid a $170000000.00 euros for christy on over now. the sleep coaching you transferred to buffalo now for a 135000000 the covered records nima. he was sold for 222000000 years. many young talents, a lining up to be discovered in brazil. well as well started on this pitch when he was still 7 years old. now 14 the strong to as a so talk to talent with big dreams is like i know it all. i want to play in your of them you, i would like to go to manchester city or live in poland. and i want to live in my family, out of poverty. the either the funny, many talent scouts noticed the boy child,

the freight task wants to win him over to move me to monuments more and faster than others when he charges. he looks like a pender lamp, and i think, but when he has to get past the defender, he turns into an agile score on need. this unique combination comes to him naturally and what can be not. so, and this is the new mind, anything i didn't assign, the full team is the perfect age, says child the freight task. the talents is already evidence, but the boys are still multiple and will be ready for a top club by the age of 18. with more than $1200.00 players last year of 11 brazil is the export. well champion of young football talent who says don't v and what you see here is a training ground for athletes. not going to the training ground for boys ready to turn into great athletes and go abroad. that's what they all want. cities pull tabs, it does, it is getting, chug afraid tests is off like some, well, a management contract. the book nation agency is based in sell. paula,

founded by us musicians, a rail, madrid, stop any junior works with the agency. and so just for those next likely super talent andric how's, why would it be fair to say that he is the making 7 asked me to go down in brazilian football history. that is one of the greatest of all time with my orders book to spanish p r appointments, a part of the job. to strike us we just became pavilion champion with palomares graces, the colors of sports, and fashion magazines collected awards and titles. he's serious and confident when the best episode, but i want to be a role model for kids who play football. i think i'll succeed. i want them to understand that if i did it, they can do it too. i want them to think like that got a can space here. when he was 16 ram, a dreadful him for 72000000 years. when he turns 18 in july,

he's got into europe from fishes football. a. that's the dream. i think about 4 guys. i'm in an interview of isaac, as a camera you're in the way it was made. note of uh, the best players are in europe and the, you know, clubs and all the eggs. you know, competitions with all the positions are always competitive. the best of the best in the way i always wanted to join way on which way it doesn't matter if it's a great class, easiest personal health coach a personal shift. so the 17 year old, these things are already normal. just a few years ago. his family was desperately poor. today he has several very lucrative contracts, potentially professional play. it has an expiration date such chalka, freight tough time is money t. yes. is there a lot of offers you involving

a lot of money. i sort of like always things that people really want cost a lot to the search for talent takes ciocca freight tasks on his colleague lucas to use competitions around for sale. the vast country has a huge pool of talent just waiting to be discovered. and lots of talent scouts waiting to discuss with them. the nation thrives on its own talent selection. lucas writes down his observations and co floods says that no one knows what he's thinking. to play his hair is 16, which is considered almost too old to mould them into top players. price is real expensive here in this game. i don't see any player for our agency. place is not true as it turns out. lucas just didn't want to reveal his discovery to the other scouts soon. chuck afraid test gets down to business and speaks to the club

post. 2 players are interesting. step one, complete nearby kits of training and at the speak field. many children in brazil live in poor families, which makes them i'm vicious, inventive and passionate. and it shapes the brazilian style says ciocca freight, tough mask. how much the need, what am i covering? a brazilian players different on ashton says every day life involves finding solutions to difficult situations. smile. it wouldn't be a surprise if he pulled off some trick while playing it up. sonya not point, not 5 percent of tell him to play is make silly to europe. and so pilot account sounds and rick is on for yes, he's played video games that's involved round madrid in a month, he'll be of age impulse of the actual team. then i'll be in the game and can play

myself at the same time. and the young man is about to take the next step in his career that could lead to a mazda of competing somewhere else. mother is standing in her son's bedroom and has how do you slept since receiving the amount of just cold the it's happening. i'm becoming reality. this is so wonderful. it's my son stream and he's a step further. it could be a turning point for the family. say saw father jersey is to suzanne has brought him the equivalent of 550 years a month. some well could seem to come to families big on a i always use it. you might, it's the beginning of a new partnership for the good of the family. and i hope it will be a lucrative collaboration phase, right? so it's there, or you're very welcome. the,
