and european stock markets open italy's flouting of the financial rules. i've been physical and i do business after a record breaking debut in new york in 2014 alibaba wants to work its magic again with the 2nd listing but the chinese e-commerce leda is reportedly looking to hong kong instead so for shares of value listed on wall street they launched their raised $25000000000.00 that was the world's largest initial public offering the move comes with china in the united states low in an escalating trade battle beijing is trying to get its tech titans to list closer to home. lab reportedly the community covers china and chinese companies is this all about hedging bets which any company would do or is it more about the trade war with the u.s. well i think it's a bit of both definitely hedging bets it's doing it's it's doing what it needs to raise capital and again the last time as you mentioned it was in new york and was

25000000000 this time it's in hong kong it's 20000000000 the fact that they're going to hong kong bringing it back closer to home as it were at a time when there is a trade conflict with the u.s. this is clearly a signal and also a trade front is a report today of china warning should restrict exports to the u.s. it isn't that one of its big boggling chips in this war it is almost it's almost like they're lining up the ducks at the moment there's sort of you know the both sides in the trade war sort of entrenching themselves and getting ready for what could be a longer battle i think. the rare earths is definitely a big big weapon that they have at their disposal blish huge weapon because it's used to take. the u.s. really relies on china doesn't as well of course and there's also the weapons aspect to it yeah that's right i mean you know it's very likely that everyone watching this has got a rare earth somewhere about their person in a phone or in their ear buds or whatever so and then of course is the defense. 2 so

it's clearly a big one for the chinese does china have anything else up its sleeve or is that really one of its last big bobbing chips i think there's still a lot of areas that china could look at obviously we don't know what direction are going to go but there's a lot of american companies for example in in china like starbucks you know and we have. coca-cola and things like that and if they were to for example to go the way of maybe organizing some kind of unofficial boycott that could be could be quite challenging for these companies so maybe that would be one possible area and they've done that successfully with other countries before stopping with south korea so there are other options still open to the to the chinese in this trade conflict just briefly will we see other chinese companies also moving closer to home when it comes to listings i think so as she jinping the president has called for technological self-reliance there's a focus on hong kong now because it's changed its listing rules so it makes it easier for companies to list so i think we're going to see a lot a lot more companies go opting for hong kong if it could and thank you very much

for coming in. well it's increasingly becoming a deadly race season mountain is a blaming the pole and it's reluctance to limit permits to scale mount everest over crowding close to the summit is the main problem an american climber is the 11th to die this season. they came for an adventure in the remotest place on earth they got queues carnage and tragedy. the man who filmed this long breathless crawl to the top of everest turned back fearing for his life it has become a death ray is there because there was massive traffic jam and people are pushing themselves for not even care people of doing it they do it to try to summit and they're in a sort of summiting they kill themselves and it's turned into a bad thing and i think people should really look into it. the reason for the sneaking lines of mountaineers at the top of the world

a record number of parent and a narrow window of good weather the delays made the already extreme conditions worse according to this climber who has the scars to prove it. but i had to wait a while for the traffic to decrease so we could go. back to because of that i was very cold and i was protecting myself and. that if there was no traffic then maybe this frostbite would not have happened that. robin fisher is one of the 11 people to have died this season he shot this video describing the conditions as he set out for the summit. but it is at the death zone near the hell of it where the congestion is most dangerous to resume officials have promised to implement safety barriers but. the

number of climbers who come to our mountains is actually quite low compared to other countries we're not going to fix or limit the number of climbers we're trying to get more tourists and climbers to come to nepal by giving them better facilities and safety we want to encourage them to come for both pleasure and fame. as cleanup operations gets underway on everest it's not just rubbish they're collecting for more bodies were plucked off the mountain another reminder that the pursuit of pleasure and fame can come at a grievous price. malaysia is refusing to become a dumping ground for richer nations the government says it will no longer accept plastic waste imports volumes have tripled over the past few years reaching $870000.00 tonnes a year the environment minister warns they'll just ship it back in the future china suddenly stopped taking plastic waste recycling last year saying it wanted to clean up its own environment southeast asian nations then stepped in to plug that gap and

have added enough. china's economic transformation has been one of the biggest stories of the past decades since 979 market reform and foreign investment have helped 700000000 people work their way out of poverty china has become the world's 2nd largest economy the communist party says because of reform less than one percent or around $30000000.00 people live below the poverty line they earn less than a dollar a day and the government plans to cut the number of people living in absolute poverty to 0 by 2020 but the wealth gap is growing at the same time the richest 100 people now have more wealth than the poorest 2 fifths of the population combined the difference in incomes between urban and rural areas is a key try. of income of course inequality and the state's efforts to combat poverty have backfired in other ways. this is what poverty

looks like for those that have not profited from china's rapid economic development made their. own lives and we don't have a place to live that's why we're living here. once the sun family lived on a large house boat and off to accommodate their clan of 17 but that was confiscated and destroyed by the chinese authorities. this is all that remains. here was where we lived. and that. you'll see my son sometimes runs into this and prays around here because he always thinks this is home. what are the want to come here son come here. you always think. you'll hit your head come here come here to your dad's the destruction of the sun residence is part of

a government push to get fishermen and their families off the reverse what do you want to see what are your my dream is to have a place to live. my family can all live in the house and i can go work for others and stop fishing now even fishing is illegal i want to stop fishing i can carry cement and bricks in around a 100 yuan everyone from my family can have food to eat and be together. if his dream is to come true son says he will have to find a different profession so his children can have a better future but until that happens he will have to depend on fishing to feed his family even though it is now illegal. italy is bracing itself for a 3000000000 euro fine from brussels that's according to deputy prime minister materials of any european commission is expected to start disciplinary action soon against wrongful breaking bunch of fools the commission ranks italy as the euro

zone's was before the growth is well below other countries debt is at a record high. but we have a natural course when it will bounce joins us now from frankfurt tell us about the market reaction ali. the market has been subdued because of that news and that development and it doesn't look as if italy is going to want to comply any time soon the deputy prime ministers of any of the labor is quoted in the report demanding that the e.c. be guaranteed government debt in order to keep interest rates down the burden down and the market is reacting the italian bonds are going down the yields are at a 2 year low that's not good news because they are at a 2 year high that's not good news and the italian equities are also being sold off and it's propelling the prices of. investments that are assumed safe like german

german government bonds. also and that's depressing their yields there's a huge spread between what italy has to pay and what germany doesn't have to pay and that basically says all that you need to know the top of the italian situation is worrying the markets fully does this all mean these so-called lupa that analysts have been warning us about is still a threat. it's still a threat that doesn't need to happen and nobody's really saying that but it could happen everything is in place the taliban government is not willing to compromise the e.u. is continuing to put on pressure the markets are getting more and more nervous and they just need to get that little bit more nervous for italian bonds to go down further and drive up interest rates also for homeowners rather people seeking credit that puts the economy under pressure puts the government under renewed pressure and hurts the banks also many of which are sitting on mountains of debt
