we expect to see seventeen that is a twelve degree drop in temperature heavy rains down towards vienna as well over towards zurich you're going to be cooler too as well with the temperature there of about eighteen degrees now in the mediterranean we are watching an area of low pressure right here that is spinning just off sicily as well as italy that is going to cause a heavy rains across the region so for tunisia well it is for localized flooding across the area with tunis a rainy day at twenty nine degrees for you. sponsored by. reality. camera. and. now have a voice. part of the

is one of three most powerful leaders but his presidential role. director of human rights watch. joins us now live. on a reputation as a tough leader how will he be. well he will be remembered for a president crackdown on various people in civil society and human rights dissidents he'll also be remembered for a major expansion of the power of the ministry of public security in the police in the larger vietnam political system he quite clearly has made the ministry of public security now one of the preeminent organs of power in that country and it continues to affect the lives of daily vietnamese and not of her the positive way i mean terms of rights violations he was that he was the leader of the band so with

his posturing now do you think vietnam was stale not cool so would it take a different path well it really depends on who is going to replace in and whether the ministry of public security will be able to maintain its leading role in the politburo. that is an excellent question we don't know so much is happening behind closed doors and in hanoi i mean to be honest we don't even really know what caused him to pass what was the cause of his death so you know we're going to be reading the tea leaves over the next days and weeks to try to figure out more is it not the case that the vice president steps in into this role and that's picking interesting isn't it because she's a woman in this to be potentially vietnam's first female president well that would be interesting if it comes to pass i mean there has been a tradition of strong leaders who are women in the national assembly but it would be important to see a woman stepping up in this role going forward as president but we'll see i think

this is all going to be settled behind closed doors between the three sort of pillars of power which is the the president's office the prime minister's office and the general secretary of the communist party ok so just how much do you think she'd be missed by vietnamese. well he really was a man of the people and as i mentioned under his leadership the ministry of public security has become much more intrusive a lot more surveillance a lot more harassment of ordinary people i don't think you'll be missed at all frankly ok phil robertson many thanks for joining us there from bangkok thank you. opposition groups have rallied in the philippines against president proposed changes to the constitution and his races say to taze push to turn the country into a federal state will lead to a dictatorship the march in manila marks the forty sixth anniversary of the declaration of martial law under former president marcos activists have drawn strong links between the current and former leaders as. well saying in the

of them are leaking into floodwaters or are likely to start leaking soon yes there are some problems today but the concern is what's happening or what's going to happen over the next few days isn't all that heavy rain floods that way downstream two years ago the waters that followed hurricane matthew flooded fourteen lagoons but none breached as the flood waters of florence continue to rise environmental officials say this time the worst is yet to come we did see a couple facilities today that were already in serious trouble they were surrounded by water there were surrounded by water there are spray fields or completely covered up the situation is not good but it's not good today but it's likely to get much worse throughout the rest of the week as the waters start to get to their or their flood levels. north carolina has nine point seven million pigs they produce ten billion gallons of manure each year president trump has promised federal aid
