ending public money not just blanket cuts up until now there's been a real lack of checks and balances one immediate change that should make politicians more willing to play the transparency game is reelection introduced for the first time i expect and i hope that this incentive structure will really focus on politicians to go more to their grassroots result in a virtuous circle of going more to the constituency and really tried to to get good results source source turned the boat this three years for the new lawmakers to prove that this time around they're prepared to put the country before themselves john homan. there were further rival rallies in the eastern german city of kemet on saturday far right and left wing supporters turned out again following the arrest of two asylum seekers suspected of killing a german man last sunday it's the third day of protests in a week more than eighteen hundred police officers were deployed to keep the groups

apart. this is something even my colleagues abroad are asking me what is happening in germany i'm glad there are so many upright democrats who showed the true colors in kemet to make clear that a large majority of germans want to live in an open and tolerant society those to stand out are a minority who shout louder than we would like but the chorus of decent people has to become louder than before. in south africa a tiny beetle on the fungus it carries is killing trees johannesburg is home to one of the world's largest urban forests but around two hundred types of treat many of them indigenous are under attack from the pest and scientists are worried for me to miller reports from johannesburg. with ten million trees johannesburg is regarded as one of the world's greenest cities but hundreds of thousands of trees could be

under through it from a tiny beetle and the fungus it carries. it's a crisis. manmade forest is under threat because of this. and you are not enough is being done from a. maybe a government or a city level at a local school trees surgeon julian is trying to stop the spread of the beatles which bore into trees a fungus that the beetle brings to the tree is actually clogging up in laymen's terms of vascular system in the tree that transporting the water the nutrients up and down the tree so it interferes with that and it basically because the water neutrons can't pass through that affected area or that damaged area it's the tree on the top dies back. so it's basically starving the tree nearby an entire tree lined streets has been infested sub africa's not the first country to be affected the beetle which originates in vietnam has already decimated trees in israel and

the united states now a south african company has developed what it says is the world's first effective treatment it's a combination of a pesticide and an antifungal solution that penetrates the tree the company says while the treatment will be sprayed on to trees it's safe for the environment but there's by killer still has to be approved before it can be used but that could take time and even if some trees are cut down the bug could spread if the trees are not properly disposed of after discovering that trees in his backyard had been affected little fryer developed an app to monitor the spread of the brutal beetle across south africa and the various interest groups have all been paying attention and collaborating. and certainly the people in the private space are working very aggressively to try to find solutions the institutions like the department of agriculture there were some really great people but they're under resourced and

they're also dealing with other crisis some say the infamous station is reaching crisis point and up to half a million trees could be lost in the next five years if nothing's done and experts are worried that the pissed if not stopped could hit farm crops next for me to miller al-jazeera johannesburg at the venice film festival movie premiers and big names obviously attract most of the attention but this year crowds of also been queuing up for the documentaries on offer that in baba reports the ones that will. get it will see that. the hour. delay of white girls might have set. a boy recounts how i saw beat his mother and how he dreams of taking revenge isis tomorrow. the lost souls of mosul was filmed before and after iraqi forces recaptured the city and it's a rare insight into the psychological damage done to young people by the conflict including the children of eisel fighters many of whom now live in camps like this

zones which it in love with. another documentary attracting attention in venice is the latest film by cambodian director ricky pan need to take on it this is him taking part in a ritual as he searches for information about his own missing relatives victims of the one nine hundred seventy s. genocide under the camaro rouge which kills nearly two million people. it's a deeply poetic and personal film but the director says he hopes it will help his compatriots to confront the past you know more and more. diligent come william let main audience is young cambodians the generation born after the khmer rouge genocide because their parents didn't tell them what happened but their own cause their grandparents or someone a dead each family was affected by the crimes. like the commander rouge i saw has also relied on recruiting children this film suggests bringing them back into society and ending the cycle of revenge will be a long process. al-jazeera venice.

and how much of a threat does it pose this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program. the city of candidates in the east german state of saxony has seen a series of violent and to buy growing protests they began last sunday after the fatal stabbing of a thirty five year old german man and the arrest of two suspects asylum seekers from iraq and syria the streets were briefly owned by a far right protesters who chant to germany for germans reportedly gave hitler salutes and chased anyone who looked foreign police struggle to keep control and fights continue the following day between far white and left wing demonstrators the

violence has raised concerns about in the city's neo nazi strongholds exposing divisions in german society about immigration chancellor angela merkel allowed more than a million migrants into the country of the height of the refugee crisis in two thousand and fifteen the biggest opposition party the far white alternative for germany seized or what it saw as an open door policy warning ninety two a parliamentary seats in last year's elections and the f.d.a. organize another protest on saturday donna cane has been in chemists and filed this report. i am i their message is loud and it is clear they are the people whom their country has forgotten neglected so they say by a government that encourages tolerance and integration on thursday they took to the streets of chemist's to oppose a meeting of solidarity between the main parties taking place nearby

was to highlight their distrust of mainstream media perhaps around a thousand people were here protesting against the numbers of migrants in the cam that's in fact official figures show only around one and a half percent of the population here is from syria and afghanistan. this demonstration was peaceful in stark contrast to the scenes on sunday and monday when thousands of far right and far left protesters threw rocks bottles and fireworks at each other and at the police the violence flowed from the events on sunday morning that german nationalists fatally stands during also cation with two migrants in the wake of that many people wondered if they'd be collusion between elements of the far right and someone in the judicial system on thursday an official admitted to having leaked the details of the suspects he has been

suspended on a wider level this week many germans have been wondering at the strength of the far right in saxony one local analyst explained how their approach has shifted. they use facebook and twitter and if this would not suffice to telephone calls and they say well something ugly has been happening here we have to show that we do not agree with there and we have to make clear that there is many of us. the people here speak with a loud voice and seemingly a united voice but their numbers across germany remain very small but their message certainly is being heard across this country. is. the challenge for the political elite is what they will do about it dominic cain. chemist's.

let's bring in our panelists in berlin philip souter student activist and anti fascism campaigner in washington cynthia miller idriss professor of education sociology of the american university and also in bullying. political activist and community educator welcome to the program philip quite interesting to see what's happening in kenya it's so a young german was killed and then the streets were almost taken over by the far right is this a genuine act of anger over what people think is lack of security or is it an act of political opportunism by the general far right. well by the far right it's of course an act of opportunity they got the opportunity of that one person was killed on the street and yes. we don't know anything about accident itself we know that one person was killed we know that we have two suspects and yeah that's

it and at the same time right wing extremists used this opportunity to get on the street to overwhelm the police. to be the majority for a short time cynthia we have people in kenya saying basically did no longer fear protect by the state what does this. tell us about germany i think part of what we're seeing is that you know political parties that are closer to the mainstream that are officially in parliament now and rhetoric has officially and successfully been mobilized to to stoke fear in ordinary people and that is far you know exaggerated they're not protesting you know ordinary crimes that germans are doing which are you know also just as likely to produce the kind of violence that you're seeing from from that we saw in that

terrible tragedy on sunday but it's an opportunity for for the far right to mobilize and to come together and use it as an excuse to an act of violence you. know we've seen a few monger's across europe tapping into the general anxiety about the influx of immigrants into the country to advance a political agenda is this an isolated to feel mongering in germany or is it an event that could build up in the future. i actually do not think that this is an isolated event and i think that it is one incident in a chain of incident that has been happening that will happen in the future i think we haven't seen the last of it yet i think what has happened over the last decades even is yet another shift of the overall societal discourse to the riots and that entails that things that might not have happened in the frequency that they

have now. finding a climate in which they can happen and the perpetrators of certain acts do not have to fear the same repercussions that they want to have twenty six one of the pivotal moments of the of the events that are for doing this is basically the investigation into the leaking of the arrest warrants by the police to the far right does it give us any sort of indication about some sort of collaboration or link between the police and the far right in commits i would not say that there are school liberation with the police between police and right wing extremists. on our laps what we know is that certain elements in the police are sympathizing with right wing extremists maybe not right wing neo nazi parties but at least with the

air of the party and the other point is that the right wing extremists overwhelm the police they claim to be on the one side to be part of german society and bearing the police on the other side they clash with the with the police now we know from the past today i was recently and he went there come a team was. pushed away from a demonstration by police and they were accused by one man one demonstrator of being. people make propaganda he was turns out also a policeman in civil clothes not in service but in an administration position inside the police this of course sold also that there are some connections between police and right wing extremists as least on the. level of not corp bought on sympathy. sit cynthia i mean if you see the latest developments year with

base. seen protests like visual entities shouting and to democracy slogans saying of the opposed to the mainstream media shouting that germany should stay for the for the germans where does it lead germany i think that one of the things that germany has to reckon with is this shift in the tactics of the far right that candidates recommend that chemists rep are represented in revealed which is that there's a very rapid mobilization that can happen and while yes this is a trajectory that's been happening over.
