4:11 am
many. many government run schools in other states look like this badly in need of repair very little furniture and no support materials it's not easy to get a good education in conditions like these. one a few parents in delhi would send their children to state schools for the same reason but a major investment in schools has seen the modern classrooms emerge with new equipment and sporting facilities that have attracted more parents back to the state system in order to develop it with our situation was pathetic we never wanted to step in sight now the building is amazing their 1st action is great the number of teachers in the school is also increasing that's why we are getting our children admitted to the government schools here set up the system by tracking them diet candy. is credited with turning delhi schools around she was brought in as a senior advisor to the state's ruling party she's now contesting a parliamentary seat in delhi and hopes the party's education policy will get her
4:12 am
votes and people are now beginning to talk about the fact that in just 40 years of such a transformation can happen then why did it not happen in 20 years before that and this is the 1st time this question is that i think in their mind that yes government schools can be involved yes government hospitals can be improved and therefore we need parties who believe in the this it doesn't. but the project foundation which is a non-governmental agency says the focus needs to be on those who educate the children who are they having. only the quality of education. the quality of education is more important as compared to other aspects educational reforms in delhi are not being debated across the country but the need for reform and change is because changes here are big associated with a smaller regional party more responsive to change many voters asking what have the

the norm the better prices come down by more than a 3rd so vehicles cost less as well. for an expo promoting green transport j.j. who is the perfect stage. a large volcanic island off south korea's southern coast it's famous for its rugged good looks. a tourist destination that knows how valuable its beauty is and how vulnerable to climate change because of that it's committed through renewable energy and electric vehicles to being completely carbon free by 2030 and i mean the entire land is a natural treasure we wondered how best to preserve it and when it came to transport we decided to go electric the jeju seems perfectly placed for such an experiment an island with relatively short driving distances well suited to electric vehicles and with a semi autonomous government able to pursue bold policies when it comes to
4:15 am
embracing the electric vehicle jeju is already way out in front of all the evey's in south korea right now a quarter of them all here on this one island but it's still got a long way to go to be 100 percent carbon free. the vast majority of vehicles still use fossil fuels but the government is quickly putting in place the resources needed to encourage people to go electric there is a tone as the provincial government is providing enough support in terms of regulation and funding transport companies are also replacing their vehicles so i'm sure we can achieve that goal to them because as the quest continues others in asia and beyond watch with interest what jade you can do maybe they can do also. mcbride al-jazeera j.j. to south korea and donald trump would seem an unlikely cultural inspiration at the

world's oldest and most celebrated arts event the venice biennale which opened today but in print in the u.s. president are seemingly everywhere even if his actual image has been banned by the organizers john engler has been seeking out the subtle and not so subtle trump references. 60000 pages of e-mails contents pretty mundane their effect on hillary clinton's 2016 presidential bid devastating now and show in venice by artist kenneth goldsmith i wanted to sort of put an end to the speculation of keep saying where are those emails. today where the emails this is the 1st time anybody's ever seen these e-mails these are all arguably the most important historical documents of our time to change the history of america and therefore they change the history of the world. to celebrated painter adrian gainey president donald trump's image is an inspiration for others
4:17 am
he's a source of frustration subtle references to the state of american politics i found throughout the venice be an artist a reason displays a concrete pull from her native mexico or. the idea of fake news is exploding video installation a mishmash of you cheap videos news clips internet memes an entity's the i did being anything can be considered news. the united states chose artist martin poet to represent in this his sculptures softly deal with issues of democracy allegiance and liberty and what it means to be exploited the work is quite abstract and the artist doesn't do interviews but he has said he hopes it will inspire us to question freedom and its fragility. may you live in interesting times is the theme of the show and some critics say trump's influence is inescapable there's
4:18 am
a level of. the work on the show here to be an all or good thing reflects the coarsening of the public discourse in trump's era a lot of the work here basically shouts very loudly to be heard there's lots of work that is very superficial various stuff taken. the lack of intellectual complexity. is a replica of president lincoln's chair with a hose that dangerously around artist's vision of the united states seems rather bleak even alex dakota's kids model of a cozy suburban town is. al-jazeera that. are not of the top stories here on jazeera yemen who see rebels have begun putting fighters away from 3 key ports on the east coast it's part of a united nations backed peace deal but the yemeni government is dismissed it as

a ploy a ports includes rusty says sunny and crucially her data an important gateway for food and humanitarian aid that millions of yemenis rely on separatist forces in pakistan have attacked a hotel in the port city of wada killing a god it but actually has claimed responsibility in a city that's a major hub for chinese investment in the country the military says guests were safely evacuated. so around opposes african national congress has secured victory in the south african elections but with the party's smallest of a parliamentary majority to make it more difficult for the relatively new data to fulfill his promise reforms. i salute each and every one of you and i thank you for making it possible for this election to be resoundingly expression of the will of the people of south africa we can declare with certainty that democracy has

aged victorious in our country our people have given the leaders of this country a fair monday 8 to bear a better south africa for all. venezuela's opposition leader says he wants to open contact with the united states military in an attempt to put more pressure on the country's president nicolas maduro to step aside when gordo made the announcement at another protest in caracas it was a smaller turnout for gordo in a week that has seen opposition leaders arrested and forced to seek refuge. fighting in northwestern syria is intensifying as the government tries to consolidate gains made during an offensive earlier this week the syrian arab army is pushing further into the last major chunk of territory in the country controlled by the opposition the rebel fighters have force them back in other areas along the border of live and how my province is 1st the headlines do stay with us the
4:21 am
listening post is up next thanks for watching us you know a bit of an. the factual. reporting. and it was really i don't know the guy but quite a. shock. i think exercise on. none of them are. as prime minister scott. hello i'm richard gilbert and you're at the listening post here are some of the stories we're covering this week in india's elections one party is definitely winning the media game the trump white house is that using new
4:22 am
rules for press passes to lock out journalists it doesn't like me and maher where the refugees story and the coverage of it continue to make news and looking to be inspired then look elsewhere it's been a little more than a month now since the 1st votes were cast in the largest democratic exercise on the planet india's general election prime minister narendra modi wants a 2nd term and his party the b j p seems destined for victory how much of that is due to modi is genuine popularity and how much is down to the b j p sprawling publicity machine is another question it comes down to the money over the past financial year the b j p s publicity budget has been 20 times that of the main opposition party the congress that's a lot of extra rallies billboards and social media ads all spent to brand modi as the leader indians need the antithesis to what the b j p calls the country's weak anti national and anti hindu opposition throw in
4:23 am
a few dozen celebrity endorsements bollywood style a mainstream news media. most of who support the b j p gets for free and that adds up to an election that looks like no runner modi's to lose our starting point this week as the campaign trail in india. india the election story starts with the numbers and they are stacked more the 900000000 people 67 stages of voting lasting 5 weeks more than 2000 national regional and state party. more than $8000.00 names on the ballot and more than $400.00 television news channels regional and nationwide covering the election and based on the media output one would be forgiven for concluding the disallow action is about just one candidate prime minister narendra the b.g.p.
4:24 am
so he has an extremely effective campaigning weapon and an eye caught in the figure of the prime minister narendra modi and nobody knows that better than mr modi so now india has a parliamentary election but since mr modi has arrived on the scene national election as p. diddy been described as a presidential style if you see what has happened to how. the m.p. candidates are named that is getting pushed back to leave her leave her your 2 weeks away from the deed that you weren't before and cost a vote and you don't know who is standing for elections in your neighborhood. and the only way that works is if you don't care who is standing for elections in your neighborhood because you're working for movie that it will be is not the 1st person who have been elections presidential political parties have but if having a strong leader would stand up i didn't give up but it will be there when i look
4:25 am
things have gone wrong and i didn't need to they would blame for it it doesn't mean that it will be even though if things go at all or dead. somebody else is live for it but as with things he is the one who takes a look at. the kind of visibility and name recognition to render a modi benefits from does not all come for free for the financial year 2078 the b j p spent the equivalent of more than 80000000 u.s. dollars in election publicity more than all the other parties combined and that was before the campaign had formally begun for one period earlier this year the party spent $100000.00 u.s. on google advertising alone 10 times more than its congress party challenge and modis p.j. peak is also india's biggest facebook appetite those are among the places the b j p s money is going to then comes the issue of where that money is coming from. the
4:26 am
beach if he has found a way to find all these funds that are perceived in absolute secrecy it has introduced a new system of electoral bonds which allows completely anonymous donations we don't even have a we of tracking who exactly is giving this money to the beatific and why what are they getting in return in the last year for which this data is available to be g.p.'s income was 3 times the size of the combined income of the next 6 largest political parties country and that's a huge part of the difference in a chance into a massively different spending budget so the bigger big currently spends about 20 times as much on election campaigns as any of the other parties they've really managed to have a very comprehensive presence from the national all the. local level people are told when they are supposed to put out what clarke and how specifically
4:27 am
to write the words. and they have to retreat when they have. retreated this is really a massive centralized campaign which reaches everyone all the way down that's how we did meet up with unity is that they've got to get in. on the other hand they're up against all this which is not even close when it comes to communication you really feel in creating. the b.g.p. it also helps in the media that it's been mandated that it will be and that is worked a lot in keeping his image and beck but i'm going to house the children. i don't want to forget the reasons for the mainstream media's preoccupation with modi range from the commercial to the idea of launching. the prime minister's brand of national and pension for the cost of our marketable
4:28 am
commodities that play well on the hundreds of news channels the battle for viewers $2047.00 in 2014 modi came into office having campaigned on economic issues promises of development and agrarian reform during this campaign the primary focus has been on national security issues like kashmir and pakistan and the b j peace interpretation of india's identity as a hindu 1st mission and i saw the movie day. the night he made the name. news outlets are also with cuba where the d.j. people led government is the country's biggest media advertise and the party wields that money tactically if you turn on any news channel during a primetime hour we got that you would destroy your own country in the way that you are going to likely to be. hysterical declarations of loyalty to the
4:29 am
nation and to the state and to the armed forces and somewhat implicitly to the ruling. dozen feet. in front of each scene of carnage and easily say that one of the successes of the mahdi government has been to call off major media houses especially television networks by may care for management of government funds of which media houses patronized interviews from ministers or from the prime minister the media business has always been picking areas for what has also happened now in media companies are now raising revenue by doing events for which they require the attendance of top level government functionaries including the prime minister we don't know now and there will be august will not be marked up out of our members now this in turn introduces constraints on the freedom of taking on the government of falling into account of the of not wanting to eliminate the powers that. be other medium ots

d.j. p. has mastered is filmed through the prime minister's courtship of bollywood a listers tweeting at them taking selfies with them even being interviewed by. on april 24th 2 weeks after voting had begun modi had a series of softball questions logged his way by bollywood actor akshay kumar who was playing the role of an interviewer. big. all. india selection rules for bid such interviews during the voting period however the news agency that put that interview out which is closely tied to the b j p argued that since no journalist was involved the interview was not journalism it was a political what is a political when it involves a person standing for election. money. but
4:31 am
when you sit through the interviews. you realize that not in the room or the loves mangoes he was a poor person point to point that out. and it highlights how he is a self-made man and this is a really important because the person he's standing against. is the son of a prime minister and he's the grandson of a prime minister who's the brit grandson of a prime minister and not in the mood he comes across in this interview has everything that average india is or us hires to be factors in india have a long history of being involved. so the involvement of value isn't entirely new selfies of hollywood celebrities with the prime minister carefully planned as
4:32 am
tweets that the prime minister bags film actors is a symptom of how carefully with great attention b.g.p. plans media campaigns though it does make you wonder why the prime minister who has so much time for instagram influence and to meet. with bollywood stars has not had the time to hold a single open press conference and is the 1st indian prime minister to feel to do so in effect. what is causing other media stories that are on our radar this week was one of our producers tarek. the trumpet ministration in the white house press corps are back at it what's this latest issue over accreditation well this week dana milbank of the washington post reported that the white house had revoked his press puff and what he called a mass of accredited reporter press householders get privileged access to the white
4:33 am
house as one of the opportunity to ask questions of government spokespeople butt. the trump administration recently changed the criteria for a credit station the new rules disqualify journalists who've not been in the white house for at least half of the previous 180 days requirement that according to milbank excludes most of the press corps press secretary thera sound said the change was about improving security but the concern is it makes journalists conditional in a way that could disqualify reports of the white house doesn't like and this would not be the 1st time that the white house has played the credentials card would it no that's right you remember that highly publicized last november between president trump and theon and reporter jim acosta on the russian vest occasion are you concerned that you may have not heard about anything with me i mean it's very unusual because it's a hoax are you that's enough put down the might after that exchange the white house
4:34 am
revoked of course the press the need to restore it's again on the order of a federal judge but the disputes was a sign of how the administration views the televised press briefings and the headline that they produce one more point this white house hasn't held a full press briefing now for 2 months the longest stretch since the tradition began under bill clinton in the early ninety's you've also been following the story of an arab activist who does a lot of work on saudi arabia and who may now have a target on his back who are we talking about he added by that he's a palestinian born writer and activist currently living a political refugee in norway and anyone who follows the middle east online will know his twitter feed he's an outspoken and influential critic of arab dictators particularly thought irregulars crown prince mohammed bin set a man and a lot of his recent work has focused on the human rights situation in thought he a radio this week we learned that on april 25th norwegian police warned by that he

4:36 am
been jailed for their investigation into the killing of 10 real hinge of muslims by me and maher security forces news of their release was welcomed by journalists and activists around the world in me and marto reporting the real him just story remains incredibly challenging since 2017 almost 3 quarters of a 1000000 rohingya muslims have fled to neighboring bangladesh and me and maurice government has been aggressive in its attempts to control the narrative however one network has been reporting the story from the inside will hinge a vision t.v. run by exiled real hands of the network relies on undercover reporters to get the information out the stories that they tell contest the official state narrative as well as the work of media outlets in me and maher that have closed ranks with the authorities the listening posts johannah who's now on the perilous state of media freedom in me and maher and the news network telling the real him just story it's way.
4:37 am
i don't want to be the one with. that gun. at it. and the less of that a lot. the manilow not in the center of it a lot i think he said beauty. refugees like the stuff. and mohamed to bar same thing i've seen on the ground for acts of rape torture massacres of their own people at the hands of the burmese
4:38 am
security forces stories that journalists from me and i tend to shy away from. for the hundreds of thousands of refugees across the border in bangladesh or hinder vision t.v. our vision provides news from abroad perspective. and we started to get news actual facts and figures from the ground and the start of the broadcast saw the ultimate goal was to tell the tools to tell the anger side of the story and to advocate. because it is under reported reported their reporting that mass rapes occur. there has been effectively a scorched earth campaign against the ranger but i'll go to where the monish are going to be done that i would have the it's you know women children have been executed along with men range of vision t.v. help to sort of counter this idea that it is just
4:39 am
a targeted operation to weed out range of militants. but they're of course branded as brazen propaganda and they've been targeted with relentless attempts to discredit them we saw at the start of the crisis range of vision t.v. and very accurately reporting what was going on the number of people that were fleeing the scale of the violence out of the animal you know. and that information wasn't used by international media at all because there's been such a fuss made by the government of burma or about the reliability of or interest sources and that's a loss because they are getting information out on the ground in rakhine state. and that significant me amar's government has blocked access to the region turning rakhine into a black hole for the new. without taxes international journalists have come to rely solely on refugees accounts for much of the myanmar media run with the government's
4:40 am
version of events. over a hinge of vision still has eyes on the ground according to its founder mohamed nor the channel as a network of around 20 undercover citizen journalists working around the clock and a great risk to feed information from our kind for our economies it's now in the range of language to their colleagues in the nation. broadcasting in 3 languages our vision operates primarily online through each year to chant the network has become a primary source of the news for the ranger community and its multiple platforms typically get more than 150000 views per day. our vision is very unique and it is the the world 1st of its kind of international media's are not allowed here so they can all do their job so now we have to take over the job we are the news break up of iraq on because we convert a citizen into a citizen journalist existing people into
4:41 am
a journalist training them and getting the information out would whatever possible it could mean that it is very dangerous for the people on the ground that are doing this the government want to shut this down they want to stop information getting out and so anyone who's found to be involved with or intervention t.v. you could be in danger of being jailed or disappeared they'll go after the people that are interviewed they'll go after the fixer as well as going after the journalists or during the reports of. those top takes are in just one line to the writing to journalism operates in iraq coming ever since the start of the military crackdown in august 27th seen the government on some sushi has embarked on a far reaching campaign to silence reporters local and foreign. intimidation and harassment and the weight of the law had been used some journalists were cast. government or military badlands. case in point in december 27th team to reuters reporters were arrested and charged under the official secrets act
4:42 am
a law that back to the colonial era for allegedly having illegally acquired information with the intention to share it with foreign media. those documents which oppose it will contain information about mass graves in recalling were in fact handed to them by the medium or police just minutes before they were arrested . for use this past week alone and just so were finally released having spent more than 500 days behind bars sheriff told me that the journalists are now free that critics remain suspicious over the circumstances of their arrest those 2 reporters. very well respected the very door good wall own door so the sort of the you know the reuters teams and the e.p. teams in the country and not going to be very courageous in their reporting on this issue the government and the military and police would want to silence them the 2
4:43 am
reporters were trying to expose something that the military will you know wanted to highlight what the journalist it is the main reason that the government had to change that they still use you know a number of law to detain journalists and these laws are very useful for the government. when meal mother again the transition from military to civilian rule back in 2011 there was hope a space would open up for more independent reporting that has since been shattered an angst on to cheese rule reporting critical of the authorities has only participator and especially on issues relating to rakhine. and it's not just due to government intimidation or self-censorship when it comes to the range of most media outlets in myanmar simply agreeing that the government. the vast majority of journalists bernese journalists inside the country appear to share the
4:44 am
