on the warning has people fleeing for their lives. luckily this time a false alarm. but with the air not krakatoa volcano believed to be the cause of saturday's tsunami still erupting experts warn that more killer waves could hit the devastated region. this fear has driven thousands to over crowded evacuation centers. i am not i am here because i'm afraid of a disaster. my house is actually far from the sea but i'm afraid the water will rise and flood my house so that's why i'm here. those who return home to salvage what they can i faced with the wasteland of collapsed houses.

in order to survive people have no choice but to try and return to normal as quickly as possible. at this market vendors sell the remnants of anything they can find. it in the early just opening now people are only coming in now as the last two days have been quiet we haven't made any money meanwhile the grim recovery effort continues but the true extent of the damage is yet to unfold with rescue is only now reaching areas that were previously inaccessible. and we're joined by did a correspondent on a santos's in charity in western java which is one of the west affected areas thank you for joining us on a so it's been three days since the tsunami hit the area how would you describe the current situation. well right now you will see that there was

a lot still fear and anxiety among residents many of them even in the lower lying areas and in the homes that are far off from the shoreline they fled to higher ground so they're occupying places and homes up in the mountains or in the hillsides they say that this is the only place they can possibly keep them safe from the idea of another tsunami coming and rising floodwaters again let's look back at why there is it's continued fear and anxiety in the tsunami that hit last saturday had no warning usually the residents expect that there's an earthquake that comes before a tsunami there was no such thing that happened last saturday and the continuous rains from today and the continuous rumbling that you hear from the top and which is an indication the book still active feeds on this fear and nervousness of what could possibly happen next so in trying to deal with this situation and also the

fear of something potentially happening how survivors coping. we resisted a village earlier this afternoon it's one of the highest villages up on a mountainside and you saw many homes that were overflowing with people in one home for example there was as many as ten families living there and they said that there was comfort in the idea that they were at least living in a home with other family members rather than in a cramped evacuation center with strangers and was no privacy but still you know they were wondering until when can we keep up the situation where we're all scrunched up in one home until when will our supplies and our food and our medicines see us through they really was just very nervous about wanting to know when can they go back to normal life when can they go back to their homes if there's enough when can they go back to live in them or rebuild the ones that have been destroyed by the tsunami. and speaking of rebuilding is there enough aid

that's coming in at this point and is it getting to these remote areas. aid has just started to come in the continuous rains have delayed the clearing operations in many of the remote villages so the roads here as we saw today you know they're. just about two and when you go for the into the more affected areas the debris becomes more and a lot more along the roads and so it's been harder to clear these up and. still accessible. a soup kitchen that had been set up today trying to do the distribution of the but again this is still just starting to trickle through to the different villages. correspondent. thank you. now to some of the other stories making news around the world officials in tunisia

apart christmas for the german president steinmeier is the time to talk to one another with family with friends and also with those who have political leanings other than your own. christmas is a time not only for carols but sometimes also for quotes i believe it's good for us to engage in debate it's good for us to talk to each other if i had one wish for our country then it would be let's move debate. steinmeyer things germans are spending less time actually talking to each other and more time in their own social bubbles. however no matter how upset we are about others or wish they just didn't exist one thing remains true we are all part of this country regardless of our origin skin color approach to life or favorite sports

team or. his christmas wish this year is that people enter into dialogue with one another other countries he says are showing us what happens when societies drift apart. we have seen burning barricades and power as deep political rifts in the united states and anxiety in the united kingdom ahead of cracks it europe is being put to the test in hungary italy and other places we are in the heart of europe of course not immune against these developments the president is convinced german democracy is strong and to make sure it stays that way we all have to work together. the death toll in the indonesian tsunami has reached to four hundred twenty nine with almost fifteen hundred injured and desperately needed aid has sought to to arrive but humanitarian work as one that can walk to and medicine supplies are dwindling.
