preconceptions and using that platforms to change society, the candidates for mexico's presidential election will be announced. will this be the 1st time in the country's history to women go head to head to the top till september on al jazeera, the the former tie, prime minister tax and shit. it was a rise in bangkok after more than 13 years of self imposed exile. the hello, i'm kimberly how kept this is al, to 0 live from to ha, also coming off anger in japan after the government says it will start releasing

treated radio after water from the book a shipment nuclear plants as early as thursday were live in tokyo and nearly 2 weeks after america's worse, while fires in more than a century, us president joe 5 and travels to the hawaiian island of maui, to witness the destruction and an historic referendum and a half foot door motors, project drilling for oil and an amazon reserve. one of the world's most diverse biased fears, the pilots, former prime minister tax and shinall. what has arrived after 13 years of self imposed exile should've what arrive just as type and peace prepared to vote for a new prime minister. the progressive move forward one elections in may. the party

leader peter live jeron ride has been prevented from taking office. well, i'll just zeroes. tony chang is live for us at the bank. talk to international airport and tony. why now? and what do we make of this timing a it's a very interesting question i've, we've seen a missed a tax and saying he wants to come back. so yes. then he picked up activity on social media before the election. so i think there was an assumption that his policy per time, his daughter was one of the problem in the serial candidates for that project would when possibly even with a landside, she seemed very confident about the fact that he would be back soon. then they didn't, they came in 2nd, goes to the move full party. he said he was still going to come back. that was a couple of weeks ago. he delayed that. we assume that some kind of a deal has been, may we know he wants to come back?

he's 74 years old. one of his great is dying outside thailand, away from the country of his bus, but away from the families that he clearly loves. we don't know whether some kind of a deal has been done. one of the things he did do when he came out to the terminal here was like a very deep bell on his knees to the royal poultry. and i think the assumption is some kind of a deals being done with a palace to mitigate his sentence. he's facing potentially 10 years in jail for crimes that were committed a charles of the code while he was outside the country. we think he'll probably serve a token of the time. he went back inside of to come. he has to be depressed, accompanied by the police. we think they are going to take him off to a police station and then onto the supreme court. at some stage the day, but all of that remains unresolved. none the less, it is, a huge the significant event today, this the tax and that has new law job

a type politics, whether inside the country or from overseas or the last 2 decades. this is a period of great instability and time is still haven't got a government off the whole months of the election. i think the fact that missed the tax in his bank here to potentially further complicate message, right. and given the fact that tie a piece prepared to vote for a new prime minister today, how could that complicate things as well? his policy per tie came out yesterday saying they have pull together a coalition of policies that has a significant voting block in the low house. in order to do that, they've had to bring in 3 of the policies. they were lied to the ministry, the previous administration, that was something they said they would never do it. if that is the case, it would allow them to get the prime ministerial candidates through that. the big question is not in the law house, it's in the off the house what 250 cent it is also have to vote. and they are all

the pointed by the middle trick. that was small scale pete harlem during the rest. the last time we tried to get a p m a month ago who's policy move for one the elections. and yet they're still not empowered. they're gonna sit on the sidelines as the opposition party this time . it's still on the unclear whether puts i can actually get true that the candidate, despite having the logic block in the ruling coalition, i think many people waiting to see what happens in parliament. lights is a, uh, the, the cabinets that administer is how their allocate to all these different co, there's some problems. it's all going to get very complicated. i think fatality votes is months off to the election. one thing they really want to see now is a function of government and did what a development tony chain live for us in the bank hoc international airport. thank you. it. alright, turning to japan,

it says it's going to start releasing treated radio, active water from the focus stream at nuclear plant into the pacific from thursday . now the united nations nuclear watchdog says the government plan is safe, but china, south korea, and pacific island nations are against the idea. the plan was approved 2 years ago by the japanese government to further the commission efforts at the plant. the water originally was used to pull the fuel rods of the plant after that meltdown accident caused by the 2011 to nami. well, how to co montgomery joins us live from tokyo with more on this. and the certainly has been a lot of controversy around the release of the water, especially from japan's neighbors. but it looks like it has the go ahead. is that right? of the yes we're, we're currently standing outside the japanese prime minister for meals. she does office where he just announced that the plan hasn't been approved. which means

starting this thursday, japan will begin releasing treated radioactive waste water from the collapse with cushman diets and nuclear plants into the pacific ocean. again, japan will begin releasing this waste waterfront. this thursday is ocean and weather permits. now this decision comes just 2 days after to see that visited the plant himself, where he met with petro representatives and discuss the plan safety. it also comes on the keels of an i a e, a report in july that endorsed japan flat. but we're already seeing domestically. there have been some protests against she does decision. they sites that have sco, doesn't have sufficient data to prove that the plan is safe. they also cite potential negative consequences to the reputation of the christian by fishermen. now this concern was echoed by the head of japan national fisheries federation, who in a meeting with the prime minister on monday, said that they did not approve japan's plan. the government has advocated around

$50000000000.00 japanese yen and that's around $342000000.00 us dollars to alleviate any financial impact. this could have also pushing my fisherman and how to go. it has japan been able to kind of a lay fears for its neighbors, china and south korea and even, i guess, you know, domestic concerns, but this is going to be safe of the yes. so domestically the plan still faces the opposition from so pushing the fishermen who again faced reputational damage from the 2011. so christian, my triple disaster, they worried that the same thing could happen to them. again, in 2015 japan and tapco promised in writing that they would not go ahead with a release if they did not get the approval a sufficient efficient. but so as we saw from you should us decision earlier today, they are still going ahead with this plan. now internationally,

the plan is still experiencing some opposition in south korea. present in units of fuel has approve the plant. so he faces some criticism from the major opposition party and civil groups. in china, the government has called on japan, stop treating the ocean like its own private sewer and said that it will test 100 percent of japanese sea food in ports in order to protect civilians. all right, great job. how to co thank you for joining us. from tokyo, i appreciate that. okay, turning to the united states where president joe biden has promised to help the people of hawaii, wildfire ravaged island of maui for as long as it takes now. joe biden is visiting the island after wildfires 2 weeks ago killed more than 100 people. some $850.00 are still missing a search cruise with cadaver dogs. continue to look for human remains. alj a 0 is patty cole, head reports of yours, president joe barton from the air and the grown seen the toxic show that is left

after wildfire swept through the island of maui to he lives in thousands of structures. more than 100 confirm did. more than 800 people still missing the floor of the rapidly spreading flames still so very fresh. it was like if you pour gasoline in the line and you just, you know, leave it on fire. it was so quick. the pain of confirming the dead, this man's 16 year old brother's body just found along with his beloved dog. they were fond together, hugging a. you know, he, he probably try to save a man. you know, he jump on top of him and he hugged them by and take now what may see us his greatest political strict being able to console those in need to understand their suffering. after all, he has himself lost his 1st wife in young daughter and recently is adults son. i know the feeling that as many of the people in this town,

this community that hollow feeling, you having a chest like you're being sucked into a black hole. wondering why ever will ever get by this? you know, there's one thing to know, but it's quite another thing to have to wait to wonder whether your family member is going to be ok. but there's also anger at the president as the death tool rose while he was on vacation. he was asked about it. his response, no comment. he stayed on vacation only stumping to celebrate the anniversary of a signature bill in wisconsin. now, in molly and not everyone is happy about it, the way we get rid of the red tape, we don't need you don't come here, wait us officials and says the president was working behind the scenes, residents have much to be angry about at local officials, even warned of high winds. the electricity company didn't shut off the power lines which may have sparked the fires. the fire hydrants ran dry,

leaving firefighters no ability to fight back the outside sirens. that could have warned what was coming. never sounded. now the president, seeing for himself what the missteps meant, the horrible cost. and the hor, left behind. patty calling out to 0. was the last isn't law high and i have been great. one resident told us about the moment that the family lost their home. it was a, when do you do? there was the wind coming from the hurricane. and so we'd lost power. so we were home all day, my cells, my brother and my grandpa, but we no one knew how close the fire was to our home because the wind was blowing the smoke everywhere. so by the time we had left, i mean we are, our neighbor's house is on fire and that was our indication as to how close things were. so it was a matter of minutes that we had to just get in the car and get out as fast as we

could. la jolla is known worldwide as a tourist destination. but for the residents, the families that come from this town, we know that it's the 1st capital of the why and kingdom and the home to so much history. and so many stake, replace as to where people also seeing everything destroyed in the matter in a matter of hours it's, it doesn't get easier to look at all of the devastation knowing what we've lost. and i hope that when do start to allocate those federal funds that they can come back to our community that we can build, be the ones to rebuild that, but also benefit from the jobs that is going to create and the money that it will provide as well, let's take a closer look at the scope of devastation in hawaii. data collected by the disaster relief agencies puts the estimated cost to rebuild the highlight at more than $5.00 and a half $1000000000.00. that makes it the costly as disaster in hawaii,

history around 80 percent of the historic town was destroyed. and the initial report says about 4500 people need shelter. the total death tool still unknown crews continue to search for nearly $850.00 missing people. now, between the long search for those missing, amid the ashes and wreckage burned down homes, are the hundreds of families still desperately waiting for answers. now we followed just one of the people returning to his home, looking for his missing father. this is a story. so i am from a wall who i haven't heard from my father since the flyers. it started. so you haven't been able to locate them. so once we heard that the rules were open, we decided to flight on this weekend. so i came down with myself and i met up with my sister. and so what we were putting of flyers from my father's to so long to

at her home in line. i'm just my dad and his dog and a lot of 3 kids my moments passed away uh a little bit earlier this year. so just so we don't know if he might have left early or ran into another area that were in was bad or so. and they might have, they've already been back to me might have been going on. and so if it's been kind of weird because you kind of think or you is fine because we left early enough. but then you get this of this star, what people are saying that all the people that were being diverted back and it's been on the circle and it's been kind of weird, you know, year yeah for this kind of tempered to be able to tell you something like that, the process i went through was just to get the sample so that if the sum across the remains of my father's death, it'll be confirmed by the sample

those things that maybe we can think different a board. i certainly be optimised that the common things that we have will go further instead of the points that maybe we can have as a difference as part of idea of those appeal. political analysts say is that many of the country see him is a political centrist, was placed the fight against corruption at the top of his presidential agenda. once in office. in the wake of the national election, many guatemalans say they feel confident that an out of the bellows leadership will bring about much needed change for some exports. however, that feeling is more sense of cautious optimism, though the election may be over, some argue that certifying the results could become complicated by legal objections from either of those opponents. according to political columnist,
