1:07 pm
right it's a combination of various factors as i've just mentioned this country has been rich by different terrorist attacks through out the recent several years after twenty eleven due to that of course tourists are staying away and tourism has been a very very important income in this country at the same time of course if you have not governments people from foreign countries are not going to invest into this country because they can see the rates vary in stable and there are structural difficulties as well between the north and the south so it's a number of problems that are coming all together at the same time of course the countries on the pressure right now because the i.m.f. has given two point nine billion u.s. dollars to tunisia in return for tougher reforms so the government is under pressure not just by the people who are here on the street today but also by the i.m.f. by the international law and to deliver those stuff reforms ok funny many thanks. in tunis turning to other news now the governor of hawaii has apologized to

1:09 pm
this should not have happened we are investigating the sequence of events that occurred right and never was meeting emergency management it was a procedure that occurs at the change of shift where they go through to make sure that the system is working and then employed he pushed the wrong button. and that triggered a false alarm sending people scrambling when we got the alarm were actually to find around the thirty sixth floor of the tower and we didn't know what to do my friends is wake me up he said he lets someone come you know why he didn't go to sirius but it's just. one professional golfer in hawaii tweeted in anguish as he took to shelter in a bath tub with his family please lord let this bomb threat not be real he wrote. north korea's boasted it has missiles which can reach a y e. and with nuclear tensions between the u.s. in pyongyang already running high the false alarm is
