filipino offshore gaming operators in october and gave them until the end of the year to leave all offer online casinos, including many found to be involved. the scanning should be close by now, since president for the end markets junior declared a total ban in july last year. for the for the say, many have gone underground and have split into small scale operations like this. some of those the rest of denied, they were scammers and say they didn't realize they were violating philippines loss . new model is full, full certainly probably goes were illegal. i didn't know online landing wasn't allowed during senate inquiries. officer gaming operators were found to be involved . not only in scamming, but in money laundering and human trafficking as well. the investigation is also sparked national security concerns. after a former mayor with alleged ties to post office, found a big herd, filipino citizenship, disclose, business associates are under investigation. it makes me fearful that besides the,

the rings in this with which they operate, that indicating a sense of ease, even about their malign businesses. because as we've been uncovering stick wouldn't of alternated with out for the protection. or at the very least, the solid ends of government officials. despite the longstanding territorial dispute, paging says it's a port submitted is cracked out. a chinese for administer one the has called on other southeast asian nations to take strong measures as well. because operations like this are ramping across the region. barn to below l. g 0 seed on the philippines. that's it from me as a whole. are on this and i'll be back from all of these and just and a half last time next, although just different dates. 101 east to stay with us. the at the time of unprecedented challenges and transformations in new era is sweeping

across the african continents. in a new full pod series, alger 0 explores how for nations are rising to the biggest challenges, as they say is critical, societal and economic issues for cause new directions coming soon on out as era in japan, divorce often leads to one parent losing contact with the kids today, she had to take out. so didn't know captain by the name of us is, is a leather r i at the and it looks like we're going to jump to use usually ground sole custody to whoever was. well, physically was a child, which critics say encourages parents to adapt that kids came back to the jazz.

and i quickly realized that that was, it might, might, might just have been taken. now the country is changing a little too without just used to impose joint custody. i just want to have a relationship with 4 people, but this opposition including from survivors of domestic violence. they're both on a single muscle to them. i know most of helpline, so don't get the right one. 0, one east investigates japan's parental child abductions. the this is a road is zooming. who knows what she travels it several times and it's

a journey by just for sure. we have plenty of time to to let you guys say, i'm not assuming it hasn't spoken to a son and 2 daughters for 7 years notes and she says this fall, the subject to the for the for the what? pushing out sort of the kind of data, you click on the left, so click the button to ship the room. were you interested in for me know that the tube in child custody is always a sad process, but most so it seems in japan when more than a 100000 children lose contact with the parents every year to assume he

lives in a modest one bedroom ground floor a pop and in chief about 50 kilometers from tokyo. she just manages to support himself by selling insurance in the civil what, what the state of florida. and i noticed you don't get to be corrected and you'll be sure to make sure what those fit kind of fit to fit your how time it fit on it. so give me a couple of tell us any that are the sake of today. when i see a judge suggested that she and her children could send each other 6. that is a year the that's the extent of her contact with me today. she will addressing the secrets ok, they didn't know captain, what kind of like i've learned and they say on monday, crunched it when i finished as being of this as

well. is it seem jessica is she's also received abusive messages from the children, quoting this cupid, and tending it a go to hell for you or full. so what that change on the cost of the, for the show good. that you know, got it. so it is okay, don't look the coil. good book on. i don't see it go to the thing. i it when i drove drove by me either one of them has been issued by the when it will be decided to leave a husband. it became a race to get the children initially, they were with her buck within full months. they were living with a husband and a judge rules. that's where they should stay. finding that as a children's father he hadn't kidnapped them. i know i know so long to have

someone else i did not know what to say. i thought the night that you've seen the feel still has the shift your service. you had some new i 9 unique oh wow. one side long. sure. since the for the one i hated the ocean just did the book. i forgot that twice as me has off the quote to ground, to physical access to her children. both times it was denied. a 3rd petition is on going. this isn't it in the line of the thing what it's called a puzzle that still has it that i think the shinji co team has also lost out in japan schools. it's been paid years since he last saw his own positive sole custody was prompted to his ex wife

before the books. a house does not to use his real name, show a custody. disputes are a sensitive issue in japan for 6 months t. so is young. some once or twice a month, but then everything changed like iowa, the whole. oh. good to scale. more like you know that kind of that's got the a lot of that stuff. get a hold of me to, to be done the. the see says, this video prove boy pleads to stay with shinji with his mother comes to collective the months later. shinji says he did what any father would do. he didn't return his son . his wife took into cold, but the video had the opposite effect. florida. yeah, yeah,

lots of in the in the me that was the last time father and son. so each of that was when shinji was arrested last meeting at at 90 my stay, the one continued to 0 can even okay for, for yeah, talk to him. i stay where you're not going to do opening up the upload and then have it going to the other thing or what those i to get the tires. i'm just going to move he was hills the 3 main. so this police station sharing a cell with other main let's go down to the whole thing. it's just a couple of miles away. and i said it was one of the

a nice thing to bob. so we'll get some more chasing, digging a light in what's on there. so can you motivate her? and i see the manual thing. it's kind of stuck. shinji says he was only released up to pleading guilty to kidnapping his son to the mobiles in the service of more or less or more with a more this is so you want me to say that a little guy says, and so you don't mind a lot i and i told him to, it looks like he's now re married and has 2 children. both are kind of a high level. that is

a roommate that are more will be out of the room. don't worry about the medical don't want that anymore. give me that senior. all right. when you start getting the site don't we must a my email the more we need then. heck, right that doing it to me. it's not just japanese parents who being fighting to the country so custody little but for those to some of them are at this gathering of so called this behind parents who have been denied the right to see the children and dr. growing international pressure on may, the 17th 2020 for japan's, parliament changed the, allowing the code to impose joint custody if it's deemed in the best interests of the child. so the other one, even a middle man, you know,

the need to talk to you believe you'll see your child again and you still have faith in japan's justice system seems to be a frenchman. vincent, the show has been at the forefront of the left behind parents can pay its costs. the form of finance here is high flying career. he law. so his 2 children, it august 2018 at the start of what he thought would be just another day. on friday, 10th, 2008. and i came back from work and the house was empty if some thoughts or feelings. and i quickly realized that that was, it might, might, and my kids had been taken and i tried getting a hold of my wife and she would and she would have replied, and then i went to, um,

i went to the mailbox and i got a letter from her lawyer saying that my, my kids were taken, that i should not expect to see them again. now let's back home with his parents in the french city of miles say, returning to tokyo with every can. when he last saw his children, they would just didn't finish it stuff because no one i'm in turkey, i couldn't then i could just buy them in the streets with that and i wouldn't even recognize them. the hardest part is not knowing how they looked like is, is not knowing how they are they all healthy. it's all happy even if they need anything. so this is very difficult to to, to handle it to be. frank vincent has resulted to desperate measures during the 2021 tokyo and, and fix. he went on hunger strike for 20 days,

losing 14 kilos. 3 years on he refuses to give up on his children. do you think you'll never see them again? of course, because i wouldn't be fighting if there was no hopes. but i think it's gonna take another 10 to 15 years. he's now one of his fists lawyer having already sped all the $300000.00 on legal fees. i key right away. no says the change to the law is superficial, but concedes it's his clients only have to have home phone guy cycle timeline. so they're all, i don't know. i don't hire me for some of the pilots and you know, it also sounds good to know us on the not that i see 40 to investigate with it. so then i'll get into the night with a few rough was it left behind parent himself. he knows to well how difficult it is

to in custody cases when the other parent has taken the children. how many cases have you taken on? and the best thing being was supposed to have done. why have gainesville and how many of you one, a cost dental uh uh it can douglas demo somebody mall so noble folks on the beat was that they'll kill for those i buy. so there's pretty guys out there. vincent says, unless the new law is properly enforced, it's destined to fail. below is not gonna change much, i guess for me no more thing that is going to bring change for the next generation of children. but really it won't change anything to me. and the reason i'm saying that is the issue is not the low and drip on the it's front of the root of light. as it is a means case, a judge rude. they've been since children with mealy taken away and not kidnapped.

it's a way for the japanese system to circumvent an international and, and even jump and subjugation to wisconsin abduction because they don't call each and abduction precise. so if you go to the police, it will be fuse you to choose that to. and when i was in court, many times i was telling the judge that my children had been abducted and i was threatened to be escorted out of the room. and i kept on using that word. japan's government has consistently claimed its compliance with international law. the. this is the family called with a face that so many children in japan is decided it's under the control of the justice administrator with officials declined our request for an interview. the

so believe is of domestic violence, of being among the most vocal critics of custody reforms. they want the new legislation script because they fear it could expose them and their children to danger the the this mother agreed to speak with one or one east of her lawyers office as long as we didn't identify her model. yeah . ok, so call your bank. so starting with the surgical and all of that, but they don't, yeah, lots of stick with them. and i got to she says she left the relationship of 2 years of verbal and economic abuse and co us of control. she and her daughter, i've had no contact with the for my husband since 2010. so there was an old muscle to come up. i know what to paul blunt, told ellison,

i guess. i know you guys have openness choosing which did you do that? the cool. yeah. a lot of social studies, but most higher, couldn't volume up, vertical food. they took off city japan's legal systems as being adults with its reputation as one of the world's most developed countries. to get started at the g 7, i didn't think it will be nation. thought until now. japan was the only man that nope. so deeply recognized the joint custody allies including australia, germany, and this elite of posted travel advisories. holding up the thread of parental child abductions, this is supposed to bring japan in line with most of the world. but no one it seems, is happy. parents separated from the children say it doesn't go far enough. and victims of domestic violence say it could one small expose them to danger. and then

as the voices of the children, one of them is now a young adult has agreed to talk to us. the city soma was born in america, would have spent 3 quarters of his life in japan. his japanese mother brought him here when he was 7. has to be hi, it's adrian brown. he says she, they to told him thinks that his father was insane at school. he felt different at that time. i think that makes various people. it's not that common was not that common in japan. my background was from a totally different culture from japan. so i stood up, i felt absolutely lonely because most family it has both parents and they have a happy life there. but for me, i just have my mother and my grandparents and also loved my father so much. so i

really missed him. his classmates cool. these guys in the japanese wood for outside to he says he spoke to me as the other a few times on the phone before his mother tobate's the contact. so the last time that my father was when i was 11 or 12 years old, my mother had an explain the doubt much about why i came to japan. and that was a big question for me. and i always wanted to know why i can see my father looking for on says he began to search to find his father. he eventually discovered him on facebook, living in texas in 2023. and so we went back to meet him.

well, i think most people imagine like a really emotional meeting by hugging each other, but actually it wasn't felt like that they hadn't spoken for 11 years. he says it's the 1st. the reunion was oakwood. we are father and son. but we need to have the opportunity to, to build a relationship. so i guess that i have to ask as a son, and my father has to also add to add as a father, but he doesn't know how to the leasing with his father was a monk. come for us to the what do you have with his mother? when he returned to you and i thought very upset because there were so many stories

that i heard. so we had a pretty big fight. his mother has now cut off contact with him to hold out hope that there can be a reconciliation. i really hope so. i just lost both parents. so if i take my mother, i'm gonna lose my father. if i take my father, i know there's no, i just don't want that. i just want to have a relationship with both people. you don't want to take sides. yeah, i don't want to take sides. i don't how does that? he says his childhood left him with low self esteem. he welcomes the change to below. and i think it is a really good change. i believe that every chosen has the right to build a relationship with both parents. that means that adults to support

the children's opinions. if i had to spend more time with my father, i'm sure that i was a more confidence to myself to accuse west suite a university as one of the country's most prestigious, no faculties. i've come here to meet professor must, so you can kind of more headaches. but in japanese families, the government sold his advice of the legal reform causal to that. and you'll see a little more about that. it's down to them 1st of to congregate the grading and put them all zeroed up on what date on this one, what i'm going, you know, what i can do, you know, just it was over needed there. but his recommendation that the quote consider the

child wishes was ignored. siri hung up the whole day. okay. got big enough. i don't know. he also feels judges have too much power in child custody cases to join you. i just don't know how you doing the higher anymore should already know that a little you also can or can all say that's kind of ready to come. so they're going to say bunk, i knew the hon dongle turn out to you from. oh, what data still is remote in the mess on how you doing it? discussion will join it, see about it, or in this case, more the, the change to the little would be totally implemented until 2026. well, this is the bill, or rather a photocopy of the bill. and as you can see,

it's a pretty way to legal documents. lots of words about joint costs that a sole custody of calls watts in the best interest of the child. but there's one issue. this document doesn't address parental abduction. every one we spoke to has been to the government to the emotions. good, grief, dispatch, 10, set. the and only sides of this debate is agreement on one thing. japan justice system has made a bad situation. the mount fuji is a long way from the frenzy attempt to you. it's one of japan's most enduring and powerful for follows the folks buddhism and should to

isn't. it's regarded as a sacred, spiritual and lucky place. kinsey tries to visit this temple in its shadow once a month, all the technical sales that they've got all that stuff on the loading. all right, i will tell you what the final daniel for, you know, you know, so he's tried everything else. he says, so why not prep. busy so when you're on the 10th and what's the most and many more excited that you know, i'm just going to know if i went to the

north and south korea to nations. technically still a tour, as relations between the neighbors deteriorates some tiny south korean islands are in the firing line. 101 east meets the island. there's costs between $2.00 korea's announced a 0. the charging town of audrey is dry, hot, and unforgiving. a boat so done with the army in the time many terry rapids support forces have been fighting for more than a yeah. had deja abraham has just the right discount for refugees and the other

pull down. there was a come fix that. so we have no choice but to come to chat, joined by hundreds of thousands of is all escaping a wall. that is not that making this car or suppose to be temporary. now there are more than 200000 to then use. if you do use the government is relocating then another couple about a 100 kilometers from here. the come, you know, conflict in dar for region has lasted for 20 years and the current situation is done, positively ignited those connections. how did you bring safe keeping high children? i life was the hardest part of the journey. on counting the cost president, donald trump says he's unleashing oil in a dramatic utah and on us energy policy. big banks have pulled out a plan to change groups. we look at what's behind the exit is plus from has launched his own so called meeting crypto coins. but is this ethical counting the

cost on i will to 0 we know what's happening in our region. we know how to get to places that others can know. as far as i said, i'm going all the way that you tell the story is what can make a difference the a last name. so it's rarely see male soldiers that plans to release on saturday and exchange for 200 palestinian prisoners. the club. so robin, you what you of civilized headquarters here in the also coming up the don't thing task of rebuilding goals are up to 15 months of 11 plus is really bobbing. we'll hear from palestinians, but he's really military expenses. operations of the all to find west bank at least 14.
