1:02 pm
i don't welcome i'm under thought she may. a red alert has been issued on the indonesian eye holiday and in the valley as fears rise over a major volcanic eruption mount a goal has been rumbling since august but now it's started emitting smoke and larva forty thousand people have been evacuated and many more still need to move and with flights grounded because of the ash many travelers in the popular tourist destination are stranded. are gone who can for the first time since one thousand nine hundred sixty three on its most serious alert level for the second time in three months. and there is a high possibility that a bigger eruption could happen. the. authorities have now extended bali's exclusion zone to areas within the ten kilometer radius of the volcano is crater. over one hundred thousand local residents have been ordered to leave their homes and stay in evacuation centers instead.
1:03 pm
of that night i thought that was sad that we're so afraid after seeing the huge black smoke rising from the volcano. so those of us who live in the danger zone decided to leave. the. airports in bali and lombok have been forced to close leaving thousands of tourists and business travelers stranded at. the facility because the ship fifteen years ago when. i got there. we have a ship that was feet to the chicken. so we don't know what's it like in. the countries geological. the volcano is now spewing out lava and that indicates
1:04 pm
a major eruption could be imminent. authorities in indonesia have been warning of the dangers of cold lava flows known as the hot resulting from the volcanic activity many have been sharing this video from close by. officials say the money already flowing in several places along the slopes now indonesia's disaster relief agency also treated about the dangers of the mud flows and shared this video the agency says people need to stay away from rivers as flows like these can become deadly during eruptions. now people left stranded in bali have been trying to contact government officials on airlines for getting some help to get home this woman from india treated the country's minister for foreign affairs and said she's why did she lose her job but despite the dangers and the frustrations photographers have also captured spectacular and dramatic scenes of
1:05 pm
the volcano this shot is a mediocre floyd was based in bali. for me are joined by david he's a vulcanologist at oxford in this city in the u.k. welcome dave now this will cain know is spewing ash and it's going smoke how close are we to a major explosion is it inevitable and imminent so i think really only have the information for the last eruption to go on i'm going to say very. it's a whole kind of eruption every fifty one hundred years and the last eruption was one hundred sixty three and so how the percent of the eruption is very much like the scene in one nine hundred sixty three where the eruption began with steam and ash explosions and then the reports are. now in ninety sixty three eruption the eruption did escalate but only after about a month background activity so it's certainly possible that iraq will become larger
1:06 pm
. it's been very well managed at the moment and that you know just so on the ground . what what is happening as it progresses so what are the signs the experts like yourselves and people on the ground look for to determine whether an explosion is imminent because in the last earthquake in one hundred sixty three one thousand people were killed. yes i think the nine hundred sixty three eruption happened at a time when there wasn't monitoring when we didn't have such large populations and it was one hundred twenty years since the previous eruption so i think now things are very different the intonation indonesian agencies have a very good. experience of monitoring and managing the kind of crises but now that eruption is big. is going to be very difficult to actually assess what exactly is going to happen next. that the team on the ground we're measuring signs from the
1:07 pm
volcano the gases coming out the shaking of the earthquakes and of course we have global south asians so we can actually see the clouds from space so i think. you know what in some ways we might not see the eruption escalate until it's actually happening but when that does happen it will certainly be detected ready to tactics so i think that the evacuation is now. absolutely required and that the regions that are being rated the areas that were most badly affected during that last eruption and do it briefly david do you think that what is the biggest danger posed by volcano is that the law is that the ash. at the moment in the case of. the most danger is actually really. take it away it's getting mixed up with the rainwater and turning into these cold which could be deadly. eruption
1:08 pm
escalates in size then. next hazard to be aware of would be collapsing of the actual crowd. which is of course the kind of gas is also highly disruptive it's the tiny particles are. very damaging. right david bonnet vulcanologist at oxford university thank you very much for sharing your expertise with us thank you . turning now to man ma and pope francis has arrived in the country becoming the first pontiff to visit me and ma he's making the visit to encourage the country's small catholic communities less than one percent of men modernity finds itself as catholic france is also expected to raise the looking a refugee crisis in meetings with men must civilian military and religious leaders now hundreds and thousands off also known as rangers are still facing persecution and violence in min ma many there say is visit could bring more attention to their
1:09 pm
plight. papal souvenir is on sale in front of the st mary's cathedral in the ongoing. this is the pope's first visit to me and. christians are a minority here just like the muslim or hindu who for months have been fleeing persecution in the country's west it's a sensitive topic that threatens to overshadow the pope's visit. and we have so many conflicts in our country i hope the pope brings peace and strength for the christian minority. he shouldn't bring up the russian issue that would just anger the buddhist majority here they don't want him to get involved. so i think it's ok if he just makes a general reference to the situation and that everyone should have equal rights. and they move the ball more many catholics are afraid of being discriminated against just like the right to injure. people refer to the muslim minority as bengali or illegal immigrants from bangladesh even mentioning that woodrow hinge or
1:10 pm
as the pope often has is considered taboo and got in the himself his boss not only requested her not to expect a swap because in this time of history that something on one of the consequences may have been so he lost faith in school so it's possible lost last week me and mine bangladesh signed an agreement stating that for him to refugees will soon be repatriated back to me and. the details of the agreement however remain unclear advocacy groups for the bridge of people say the agreement is too vague for just the monitors that should be involved and involve them so that the donkeys that i don't take them that it will get their citizenship. is that good help us efficient and a future. but the question remains how political can the pope be and me and ma and how much moral authority can he show because he won't want to offend the country's deeply buddhist population. i'm now joined by david good obama's agenda's base in
1:11 pm
yangon formally known as rangoon david seems the army chief there has just arrived to meet the pope an on shed meeting what do you make of this. you know this meeting was originally scheduled for thursday but it got moved up to today and i'm told that meeting is underway really tough to say exactly why it was moved up i mean certainly the pope is going to have to address the crisis in rakhine state with the senior gentleman on who's the commander in chief of the military how forcefully he will be that's really a question how firmly is he going to address this issue and how firmly will he support the rohingya. the question i'm really wondering though obviously those discussions happened i just talked about but i'm really wondering if the general is going to try and send any direct message to the pope about how he expects the pope to address this issue publicly he the pope is giving a speech tomorrow and he will of course have a mass on wednesday
1:12 pm
a large public mass on wednesday morning here so i'm wondering if the general has any intention of telling the pope what he expects from that there's a lot of pressure coming on the pope from both sides as to how to address this issue in terms of. human rights activists saying he not only has to be firm in support of the ranger but he actually has to say the word rohingya when identifying them and that's a very controversial thing in this country because most people this country refused to identify them by the word or a hint that they call them bengali to imply that they are illegal interlopers from bangladesh so that word alone is controversial let alone the whole issue and i've spoken to numerous roman catholics in this country who have told me they do not want the pope to use that word because they're afraid that there could be some sort of backlash from buddhist nationalists against this country's catholic unity if he does so this meeting that's going on now between the pope and the commander in chief that could be the most it might turn out to be the most difficult diplomatic point part of this whole trip for the pope and keep in mind another important point
1:13 pm
to keep here in this country the civilian side of the government has no control over the military state counter. she controls a million side she has no control over the military side of this government. well yes interesting that the general has brought forward is a meeting with the pope now given all of this in what you're saying will the pontiff be able to exert any kind of law to touch on the duties of the be it civilian be it minutely you know it's really hard to say if he could really have much influence over the military on this one could he have some influence with aung sang suu chee perhaps certainly though analysts i've spoken to say that they think that the pope could really have some influence on how the outside world used this crisis and that that could be significant keep in mind here while the united states and the united nations have called what's happening or kind state ethnic cleansing in this country the majority the population is behind the military campaign here
1:14 pm
and they deny that it is ethnic cleansing so the general has overwhelming support with the ways and means counterinsurgency with this country so it's really hard to say that the pope could have a lot of influence over the general here. dave young on thank you very much for that assessment. this article look at some other stories making news around the world a fringe party of the religious right in pakistan says it's ending its blockade of a major road into the capital islamabad after the law minister accepted its demands to step down all those arrested in the weeks of protests will be let free in a deal which is viewed as a huge embarrassment for the government. in honduras early results from the country's presidential elections show a lead for leftist challenger salvador he's got a five point entryway incumbent present one orlando of numbers we just over half the vote counted the final tally is expected to be close both candidates have

already declared victory and. the longest serving member of the u.s. congress is giving up a key committee post while lawmakers investigate allegations of sexual harassment against him eighty eight year old john conyers was a senior democrat on the house judiciary committee he denies the claims against him . here in germany there are signs of the country's two biggest parties could form a government and to end the political deadlock left by september's election chancellor angela merkel's conservatives now say a renewed coalition with the center left social democrats is the best option for the country that's after talks to form a government with the greens and pro-business free democrats collapsed the only alternatives to a grand coalition new elections or forming a minority government. and joining me now is dede obvious political
1:16 pm
correspondent mikhail across there she is standing outside the headquarters of the social democrats welcome me what is the mood there a majority of the s.p.d. members it seems are against a grand coalition especially the younger members. yes absolutely i mean the feeling is they've been there before twice before in america have they had this marriage of convenience with anger machall c.d.u. party and this time around what we're hearing from the german chancellor her clear preference of another grand coalition that sounds more like she's trying to force a marriage upon a very reluctant to put it mildly s.p.d. party which really wanted to go into opposition regroup itself really discover its roots and then rebuild on its newfound strength and now there's a feeling here that that process is being cut short by being called into duty really to at least talk to the cd you know about potentially entering something
1:17 pm
like coalition talk so if you talk to the cd that sounds a lot more concrete at this stage than it does on the s.p.d. side so it sounds a bit like an arranged marriage offer but this time the social democrats mikaela i'm a strong bargaining position is an opportunity for them to put in place some of their core issues like minimum wage and so on yes and that's also the only way that the s.p.d. could make this palatable to its grassroots which in the end will like last time around to have the opportunity to vote on anything that is potentially agreed between its own party leadership and the c.d.u. if it even gets to that stage are still being cautious here so it clearly isn't a very strong bargaining position there was a feeling that even things like the minimum wage work claimed by americal c.d.u. party in the last governing coalition they are determined not to let anything like that ever happen again so a very good bargaining position for the social democrats if it gets to that stage
1:18 pm
and would do this all it mean for the leader of the social social democrats shows what does all this mean for he was dead set against a grand coalition of the election result. absolutely you need to take a lot of flak for that from his own party to come out after the election night and completely rule out any continuation of this grand coalition and then having had to perform something of a u. turn last week with some even expecting him to step down last week and really he sees himself as someone who wants to be at the forefront of the renewable of the social democrats sounds a bit contradictory that's also how its role is perceived right now so he's by no means the very strong man here who necessarily will have to stay at the top at the same time he did seem very popular throughout the party because he did put on quite a fight against an over most mighty seaview in this past election right in the

of the german boners bank just stated a few days ago that at least for him bitcoin is not really money but when you talk to experts year on the trading floor they are sure that crypto currencies will have a very big importance in the future and their countries such as in a serial with very high inflations rate were bitcoin is even considered as more secure as the national currency believer and we even might be able to do our shopping in the future with crypto currencies amazon there's been this rumor for a long time might be announcing very soon that they will accept bitcoin ethanol official payment. frankfurt today is cyber monday marking the start of the online holiday shopping rush it comes hot on the heels of black friday last week where shops offered massive discounts across the board it used to be an american retail phenomenon but not anymore the two days of bargain hunting have

1:22 pm
working pretty well there are more people on the streets than i expected and the reason i heard about it and i saw a lot of signs i received emails and coupons but it doesn't push me to buy more today than the same reason so there's no use in germany one resourceful businessman even license the name black friday to get around paying fees other businesses have thought of clever replacements. and in china black friday is just one of several days of mega sales others are tied to a specialist times of the year. yash raj i usually buy household items during double eleven or double twelve and then i buy famous brand clothes on black friday . that he was jewish and i'm trying to. it's little wonder that marketing experts in china have encourage businesses to sell western name brand products at sale prices on black friday they're luxury items for an emerging chinese middle class.
