funny for cha has been talking to the family of a man killed during a protest earlier this week. there's not much to do in the small challenge closer to the capital city of tunis unemployment is high especially among the youth we are in to board about one in three young people does not have a job life has become expensive and the local markets are nearly empty these days. people are fed up with the economic situation in tunisia inflation was already quite high and now there is an additional price hike for basic goods like vegetables and fruits and it in places like this one in villages and towns just outside of the capital city tunis the frustration of a price hikes for basic goods could easily turn into a revolt against a government. people who do not have much suffer the most under the austerity measures in effect to reduce to balloon ing state deficit this woman leaves the market didn't empty back in them for what they have been used before her father. i

didn't benefit from democracy we are so tired of this because everything became so expensive the government doesn't care about and so. people have been taking their anger to the streets over the past two weeks they're showing the yellow card to the government the red card will follow they say if things don't change peaceful demonstrations turned violent one man died during clashes with the police. he lived here into borba in this house we are meeting his uncle he takes us through the entire family. the mother is under shock she's concerned that the death of her son hums events have a was in way her daughter tells us why. they don't want to tell the truth that the police killed my brother he official autopsy will not tell the truth the government is afraid that this could result in another revolution that the clinic baba if.

the circumstances of homs is death remain unclear what is certain is that he took to the street to demand a life in dignity a job some stability. that's not possible in this country the politicians want to fill their pockets they don't care about the people if they want to put me in prison for what i say i'm not afraid left you know on a bill called. most people don't feel like celebrating the anniversary of the arab spring for many democracy didn't result in economic prosperity they were hoping for . funny for job there reporting from just outside tunis and we're going to link up with funny again now she's standing by for us in tunis now funny the seventh anniversary today of the arab spring uprising that toppled tunis is former dictator we've already had a week of protests how big is today's demonstration expected to be if

you look at previous protests they speak and also of the previous week the size really wasn't pretty big a few hundred a few thousand people gathered in several cities across to nisha and this is what's going to be expected for today as evolved a big question of course is that this protest which the union and the opposition party has called for whether this is going to turn violent because at the same time of all here in tunis in the capital city the anti austerity protest is going to be underway the official ceremony to mark the anniversary of the seventy seventh anniversary of the arab spring is also going to take place just a few blocks in between the two demonstrations or the celebration and the protests so that's the big question there that that is going to be violent and that's violence and this is exactly something that the government wants to avoid so how exactly is the government how are they all thought is gearing up for today. military has been already deployed they speak as we have seen those images that

have been some shops that have been looted according to the government and also certain government buildings must be protected the government say because that could be sort of a target for evangelism if that's going to be the case that really as i say nobody knows because nobody knows but that level of prostration that level of tension is going to result in violence but just like at any main ceremony these days not just in tunisia about probably everywhere around the world yeah the main measures of police man around the city but also certain roads certain main roads like the main road behind me is blocked making sure that things remain calm that things perceived of the way this show that the government sas and that is that apart from all the tension that apart from all the frustration about this austerity measure the and the various series marked some dignity and funny the government i believe has begun making one on two concessions there are plans for instance that have been announced to increase aid for the country's poor what are people telling you there and tunis

is this enough for the protesters. to put they're saying that this is probably just some lip service making sure that things stay calm today but they've been nine governments since the op rising the arab spring uprising twenty eleven nine different governments trying to do the same and that is trying to bring the economy back on track people do not believe the politicians and the more and because of that in fact some people do not even take to the streets anymore because they are so disappointed and frustrated now the situation be this eight probably there is going to be some increase of aid but the people who are taking to the streets say this is not enough they want the entire fine and slow austerity measures to be dropped scrapped altogether ok sunny many thanks for that sunny such other reporting for us from choosers. turning to other news now the governor of hawaii has apologized to residents of the u.s.
