6:24 am
this sort of verse 3 is all survival rather than drawing john home and. because i work in lebanon sonny political establishment is concerned that constitutional powers given to the prime minister being undermined by politicians allied to iran the prime minister's post is reserved for their community as part of a sectarian power sharing agreement the type of accord signed in $1809.00 established a political system under which the president must be a maronite christian the prime minister a sunni muslim and the speaker of parliament a shia muslim but that delicate power balance is under strain now prime minister saad hariri is in a weak position since his party lost seats in last year's general election lebanon sunni politicians accuse the leader of the largest christian party gibran buswell and his ally has boller of undermining the powers given to the sunny prime minister we general rivalry between saudi arabia and iran is also change the balance of
6:25 am
power in lebanon so no harder explains. to grumble seal is at the center of lebanon's latest political crisis he is the foreign minister and also the son in law of the president the head of a christian political party and along with his ally hezbollah he controls parliament and cabinet and some accuse him of using those powers to undermine the country's sectarian based power sharing system all of. approved projects is an assault on the status quo which was founded by the thought of a court so we'll see this trying to find a new place for a strong christian leader. christians once dominated lebanon's politics the civil war changed at the time of a court of 1989 removed powers from the christian president and gave them to the sunni muslim prime minister seals free patriotic movement party say they are claiming back what is rightfully theirs we have what we have in terms of
6:26 am
parliamentary presentation to your representation confessional. representation so it's just that we're taking over part of the system before christians were marginalized so this very very very part for that was going to others prime minister sidle had is in a weak position he lost parliamentary seats in last year's elections partly due to a new elect torah law that critics say favor his rivals and his traditional ally saudi arabia has lost influence here saudi arabia played a key role in brokering betov agreement which was named after the saudi city where it was signed a lot has changed since relations between lebanon and saudi arabia have been strained by the growing political influence of the iranian backed hezbollah and its allies in lebanon hezbollah was not a political actor 1st signed and it's. father president michel aoun refused to
6:27 am
recognize the deal and was forced into exile. which is a huge crisis it's not easy to make changes to the time for court it was the outcome of 15 years of war and any amendment could start another war which no one wants but there is already a new reality and it won't be easy to shift the new balance of power in lebanon. beirut. physical therapy or physio therapy as it's also known is considered a luxury in ethiopia are very few serapis available though to treat tens of millions of people there and even then not all of them are qualified harding reports from the capital addis ababa. rebecca nya dec lost her legs in a land mine explosion she's a refugee from south sudan and was sent to add as a buffer physical therapy treatment now after 2 years she's learning to walk again . when we came to ethiopia they welcomed us we came because of the crisis now we're
6:28 am
waiting to learn how to use these artificial limbs this is the 2nd time for me to come here. ethiopia's physical therapy program is just getting started and the demand is staggering with an estimated 105000000 people in the country there are only 7000 doctors a physical therapy but give an example here was one of the 1st the hands up program started in 2002 in going to enlist and i was among. the students to enroll into this program and after 10 years or in the launch of the stockton program i was also the farthest thing in order to this program so for sure i feel like playing at the school fish and 3 doctors a physical therapy work at this clinic in alice avodah and treat patients like rebecca others are scattered across the country as of now they're graduates from the 1st and only doctor class in ethiopia mohammed hussein is another patient he had a stroke and relies on his rehab to move again. who thought he knew i
6:29 am
suffer from this and was shocked when i found out there was physical therapy here i thought it was a luxury not this i feel awful that's one. of the services here are free paid for by the government but when we visited there were a few patients getting help at the clinic. one of the biggest challenges with physical therapy in ethiopia is lack of awareness most people don't even know that facilities like this exists but even if they did there still aren't enough therapists to treat everyone and this is a misconception that existed in most parts of you know because not only physical therapy even as a hoarder we have to consider. that some of the physically disabled are often reduced to begging at times relying on their disability to make money even though ethiopia's physical therapy program is relatively new it's still more developed than in neighboring countries many patients from south sudan sudan and eritrea rely on the facilities here to gain their life back for rebecca her new legs mean she
6:30 am
can get around in the refugee camp where she lives part of her treatment is learning how to walk on an even ground similar to the surfaces in the camp during the time when i didn't have these legs i was just sitting at home with no place to go because i had no mobility progress on a national level is slow going but for patients here it comes one step at a time leah harding al-jazeera at us africa. well there's much more still ahead on the program the skate park giving syrian children the chance to dream of a limp a cold that story and much more coming up very shortly. the diagnosis he has been sick for around 6 months now the challenge ahead there when one of these $96.00 could be a new cure or a basis of
