a wave of tariffs introduced five president don't trump those are the headlines on al-jazeera up next one i want to waste. just so. up in these himalayan mountains you feel you could almost touch the sky. no wonder people who live here if you close to the heavens and their gods. but the reality you there are a lot of very unhappy meetings going on here. these are stealing precious religious
1:22 am
icons it's affected not only of valuable treasures but also of culture. i'm steve chow on this episode a one on one east we're deep in the himalayas tracking those behind the fast and appalls garments. the drive into the poles remote region of mostar starts here three thousand meters high. dusty. dangerous. yet stunning. tash this places. i know ah it's amazing it's just tucked away in the corner of the himalayas you know it's a beast these mountains are not only home there are places fighting to protect my group here all my life and their own good love didn't like paradigm or motorway i
1:23 am
just can't wait to be back you know they were like ceases to amaze me. that likes a certain a strong feeling of belonging this to the place you know. a sense of belonging to an ancient buddhist culture dating back centuries and with one has always been just a very unique isolated kingdom and until one thousand nine hundred there are no visitors allowed into the area so there's a very strong sense of a living heritage that still governs a lot of to life today but it's a religion and culture at risk yes this religious places of worship all over the place are being broken into it's pretty interesting at the moment they're suffering they're just lost at what an alarming rate so this one is some drilling ministry trashy has spent the last decade studying the region's religious icons so you ready to protect them and the culture they represent for take a look. stupids built to hold sacred relics are places of devotion for the
1:24 am
buddhist community. so look at this i mean this is a super a very religious monument that has been broken into this is supposed to be completely sealed up and people have. put all of their religious sacred offerings inside but look vulnerable just the belongings of this depart to just anybody who could come and try to make away with stuff you know. scraps of fabric and clay statues are all that remain the more valuable items said stash have been stolen the power fruit rulers the amber longs they were donating their belongings to stupas so they did do whole lot of ancient precious artifacts. so normally you have. scored endings that are printed on fabric and in some cases also a lot of. it will statues copper bronze statue is like from back in that is just like on the black market these would fetch tens of thousands hundreds or thousands
1:25 am
of dollars that's a sad part you know because this precious items that are such a big part of our living characters have such a big market value it's somehow fuel happening of such things you know. and demand he says is at an all time high. over several days we visit a number of religious sites they've all been pilfered so this one right here used to be. here barbed wire was put up to stop please but it's only managed to stop the thief who would underneath her simplicity assume that you're news but as you see unfortunately it's not possible anymore because there's all this barbed wires that go around to ensure the safety of the super. robbers got inside anyway who knows the belongings that they could have made away with to the police ever catch those responsible sadly there has been no police cases filed in any of the lootings in all of them is that why is that there is no
1:26 am
proper record giving or inventory that could have been used as a difference to file a case on what has been stolen. to better understand what's being lost she takes us to a monastery which so far has kept their treasures secret from outsiders. safe under lock and key. conan. this is collection of ministry inside are dozens of buddhist statues all priceless treasures. look at this one in this look look oh interesting how intricate the turns the designs the detail. the handiwork is incredible it's absolutely i would imagine people purpose spend life couldn't decades or lifetimes coming up with this
1:27 am
must this is it or how old would you say this one is. i think this could be a new read between fourteen to fifteen century. and look at this as their absolute masterpiece or. really really ancient eleven century and then century exactly so it's a thousand years old how much would this go for the black market or i wouldn't be able to tell for sure but. i wouldn't be surprised if it's pictures of a few hundred thousand dollars or so but that's not the kind of value that we look up to for us it's really just value you know and these are. like very important symbols of something that binds the communities together you know a treasure like this particularly would it would be an absolute disaster. capitol dome on top. players and religion are clearly an intake part of life.
1:28 am
in the town's mean monist. months before the same rituals that have been carried out for centuries. it's here we meet she may go to a tibetan spiritual leader he's also concerned that that's are not just the loss of treasure they're harming the buddhist religion itself. welcome to the children ministry if you take us to a whole that's normally off limits to outsiders he has something to show us. it's an ancient manuscript every polish you'd have to dip into her cover in trenton we call them. and the nation and make it mean the rude and crude
1:29 am
and bailed out. more than seven hundred years old it's considered so priceless and so significant to their religion it's never been shown to a foreigner before. submit it in for industry the development ministry because all. and i didn't. every page of buddhist teachings is meticulously written in pure gold. it was rescued from a neighboring street after a break. through again because it is to produce an unsafe way. given to say a second manuscript also written in gold has already been stolen and with it ancient buddhist teachings we can launch then what is. what easter with his aid.
1:30 am
he didn't help but. it's pretty sad news for us to go to the. chimney is eager to show us more that we have to join him on a pilgrimage high up into the mountains. the journey takes us through bora most towns incredible landscape and sights. this is most of the care of the people before the fourth infantry so variation this cave this is the reason we get a group of the biggest in our in the himalayan mountains. she asks us to keep our destination a secret for fear we could lead thieves to their hidden icons so.
1:31 am
many hours later we arrive in a valley and begin to decline. now we get them on the street. oh out of uniform on the street here's a look at vision strange. here we find giant copper statues including all the buddha. stones fourteenth century. put in some sort of standing what they said were a very nice little dimmer going to issue but sadly even here we've come too late all of the big statues all their business have been cut and the insides have been
1:32 am
taken away why would someone want to steal what's inside. for reading so sure of the belongings that are easier to take than the statue itself. says typically inside the statues are scrolls of tibetan prayers items collectors would pay a fortune for and. so was this to me. this because they say do. we go deeper into the monastery. oh. so this is the going home which means the room of the protector diety and the protector and artist room ensures that them on a street so that it is six thirty in the monastery and the villages around so is the most powerful room in the monastery absolutely. the irony here is that these d.d.'s were created to protect the monastery but now they themselves need protecting. them all day of all going bald was younger and older more
1:33 am
during the. cold war. the. later outside and as monks carry out what they came to do. holding a special ceremony asking for higher powers to keep the monastery and its guards. but. when you think say about those who steal these things do you think he's angry. with those. who go to somebody who is dating them things is their own. what impact would you say all these thefts is having on but it's. all worth it it's very sad news.
