this is d.w. news live from berlin still fighting slavery after 100 years as the international labor organization marks its centenary we look at its efforts to bring dignity to work now the drive for the lowest possible cost can lead to harsh conditions and exploitation. also coming up the tourist boat that sank into the past is raise from the river down for more bodies have been recovered after the worst disaster on the river in half a century. plus day 4 of the women's world cup gives fans

a 1st look at the united states team after neighbors and rivals canada survive a scare from cameroon to get their turn it off to a winning start. i'm serious oh my god it's good to have you with us we start with the future of work technology automation and globalization have already affected how most of us work disrupting existing patterns for both better and for worse now these shifts are big compared to the industrial revolution and also the focus of the international labor organization or aiello conference this week marking the organization's 100th birthday now the main topics at this conference include a future without child labor and using technology to guarantee a decent work and also ending modern slavery which the ilo says affects some $25000000.00 people globally. well let's take

a look at the situation in just one country out of many that are rapidly industrializing cambodia produces many of the clothes that people buy in the developed world but the drive to make goods at the lowest possible price can mean harsh exploitation. these women are singing about peace work starvation wages and fainting from exhaustion they're textile workers at a labor union event even though in recent years the minimum wage has increased to about $160.00 euros per month it's barely enough to live on in cambodia but many. labor protection laws are often not enforced 2 hours overtime is officially allowed but 4 hours is practically standard most women workers only have temporary work contracts they constantly worry about losing their job the companies keep them powerless. face masks and other protective gear are now standard in nearly half of

companies here some clothing brands pay external consultants to inform women of their rights but higher wages and more social benefits put textile companies under pressure. the major brands buying agency compare prices worldwide they work contracts for the countries that charge the lowest price that's how. i cannot say if that's right or wrong. international labor organization saying that despite the progress that's been made cambodia is still one of the 10 worst countries in the world for workers. well let's talk more about this story with marty aloose vega she's a cord nater of the aisle 0 future of work initiative and she joins us from geneva where the conference is taking place right now thank you so much for joining us we just heard an example saw an example of how workers are being exploited how big of a problem is this and what is being done to address it. well we have been doing for

over the ascent to the many things to address these problems because it's like i say this is a ghost and you know we're like we are we have i can put this up so yes it's not we have i think that they fit in with it but it means not their lives at all which actually implementing what if in countries but also with the general discussion and with the commission about normative action the idea hospitals. to really implement new loaves and complete the work that's because our main. purpose and what main aim . to provide what he nearly being in the shins then are. in fact giving the needy to workers ok dignity to work as the key there and your organization as you're saying is doing a lot to address the problem but how is it still that 100 years after the ilo was founded we're still seeing such large numbers of people working under such difficult conditions sometimes amounting to forced labor. this is the question that

would have if we have been revising and we are thinking these days i would have been thinking for the last 5 years what is possible then even though we have a lot of progress we've made progress in terms of economic development also in terms of technology the logical and bands the politics is still there many countries that 99 survive and so that the economy and we are trying to see what is possible and i think is part of it polices national policies and also in part of they need to read to try to look for new solutions to new ideas and to really much more slowly than the among nations and also. in monk people in general let's say we need to increase these values we need to restart the sense of these values to really rebuild their lives what these these social contract and he said they already also all of i wouldn't well as their money list i want to ask you

because you mentioned that technological change and another big issue is how technology is changing the workplace before we talk about it let's take a look at some recent developments. these could be the eyes of the future intelligent robots that work independently capable of undertaking inspections of things like cables and wiring. and in future drones like this could be the solution when it comes to checking and repairing high up hard to reach parts of buildings this one is even able to drill if needed. scientists at the institute for robotics and intelligent systems at the swiss federal institute of technology in zurich are developing robots with the potential to transform work as we know it some are aimed at taking on arduous tasks in the construction sector. mentioned. to be far more intensely

involved in farming for example today we have such things as holidays machines help make us more efficient to give us more leisure time. but unions say that's not necessarily a cause for celebration it is a. technology is everywhere right now and that's why the processes of change is so rapid at the moment some people might be unsettled by that but generally i'm optimistic that there will be enough work the question is whether it will be properly paid will it be properly regulated so that our working lives will also remain satisfying. new technologies can often new opportunities but regulation will be key to ensure humankind doesn't get left behind. so much looking at that report there you know if we're seeing more automation and technology we're placing a lot of the jobs that we see in the current workplace while governments have to guarantee jobs and guarantee income in the future what will work look like in the

future. that we're we're not sure how the world will look but we're sure these should be still human work is changing but the humans should be command and this is important this debate was told many years ago centuries ago when they were handing out scalp in the humans now are the machines and the machine should be a service the human being how we can ensure the war i think the concept before money is not anymore to concept and we know like 40 years ago or 50 years ago we have to give that in sense they are all that i leave that need to be well see other people still want to war because it's much more. mean it's a need for a humanist gratian but what we need to be sure is everyone everyone has the sense of conditions are right not even what make up quite mater of the ilo future of work an initiative will have to leave it there thank you so much for sharing your insights with us and thank you very much. now botswana's high court has

overturned a colonial era law criminalizing gay sex the court says the law should not deal with private acts between consenting adults and that penalizing people for who they are is disrespectful it unanimously rejected sections of the penal code that made same sex relations illegal and punishable with a prison sentence it comes less than a month after kenya's high court upheld similar sections of its penal code. now many businesses in hong kong have vowed to shut down on wednesday in a show of solidarity with the movement protesting against a controversial bill seeking to allow extraditions to china hong kong was rocked by a huge rally on sunday with vast crowds calling on the city leadership to scrap the legislation opponents fear that the proposed law could undermine hong kong's autonomy from mainland china activism groups have called for more protests and strikes tomorrow when the bill is expected to be approved by the city's legislative

council. let's bring in our correspondent covering this story for us. who is in hong kong so there's a 2nd reading of this bill tomorrow and we're hearing that there's plans for more protests any indication of how big these protests are going to be. so me i don't think we will see the same numbers as on sunday but that's not a surprise people had a long time to prepare for sunday's demonstration this is now a week day but we hear many voices in this city who say we need to continue protests have also be energized by this number of people who joined on sunday people suddenly so we are we are so many we are more than we even thought so i i expect that there will be quite a turn or tomorrow much as some of those voices you mentioned have been prominent business leaders in hong kong there warning leaders to be cautious about the spell out what they said and how significant is their voice. now

that was one of the biggest surprises the business community is usually government friendly in the run up to these 2 this law there were some business associations those who were pillars of off the government who already voiced their concerns the government has reacted to this and has taken a few white collar crimes like tax evasion out of this bill excluded them from extradition mond some of the business associations were content some were not but also other pro establishment organizations like the legal professions have voiced their concerns so this bill is really that the government is really going on confrontation with a big part of hong kong society and not just the usual suspects of the democratic camp and yet despite this very vocal opposition that he has hong kong leader kerry

land seems to remain pretty defiant that this bill should go through right. yes she said thank you for voicing your opinion i think we need to push this through she. stuck a little bit a considerate sorry tone but she's determined to do so we can maybe hear what she said. and the bill will resume his reading 2nd reading to date on the trial of june and we have killed so members about it estate council and various organizations and groups in society so will continue or tool in participating in the discussion in a calm rational and peaceful manner. so much as has that appeal from carrie land made any difference i don't think so she's really at the focus of these protests she is seeing us as the person behind it and one of the. loudest. voices in this sunday protests one

of the demands was that she step down she's closely aligned with this bill maybe she can also not withdraw it now without losing her own personal standing within her community within the people that back her including beijing so she pushes through with this party that is my chest building a reporting for us from hong kong thank you so much. not some other stories making headlines around the world amazon has moved past high tech titans apple and google to become the world's most valuable brand the value of the e-commerce giant's brand surged by 52 percent to 3 $115000000000.00 according to market research agency can tar that leads apple in 2nd place in last year's top brand google and their. canada is set to ban single use plastic starting in 2021 prime minister justin trudeau declared the initiative a global challenge to phase out of the plastic bags straws and cutlery clogging the

over salat spent 3 days with members of the militia he reports from al paso in neighboring texas. is beginning his shift its mission to find and stop illegal migrants. every night he and his friends at the guardian patriots gather in the new mexican desert near el paso very good to. they have been described as right wing extremist but the militia insists they are just trying to help the author already said for them this is carte blanche this is an open border and with border patrol being strained it's an unprotected border so we need to be here we need to back up the border patrol. a piece of wall has been built to control the influx of migrants but it's far from complete. this is where the wall suddenly ends and you can easily walk from mexican into american soil and this is just a very good example why militias think that they are needed to help secure the

border critics however say that this should only be in the hands of the border patrol. or they come here all right we got to ok so i say here at nightfall the guardian patriot someone come into action a group of migrants are just entering american soil and. we got more crossing after stopping the group the militia called border patrol for some tried to escape some of the rio grande. right. up. militia member killed himself is sung to an illegal migrant from mexico but he wants new arrivals to come to the u.s. illegally way. back in the day you have to pay for your education you have the ticket to speak english yet that you know the president's you know yeah it's hard but that's a legal way to do it when they just do it legal this way it cost the taxpayer money

president trumps wall remains unfinished. until then they say they will come to new to watch it all over the border. now salvage crews have recovered more human remains from a tour boat that sank in buda passed last month rescue workers were seen carrying body bags out of the preserve raised the wreckage of the site seeing both a capsized and sank on may 29th after it collided with a bigger vessel 20 people have previously been confirmed dead in the worst disaster on the danube in half a century. earlier we spoke to correspondent stefan boasts who was after a scene in buddha past and we asked him about the aftermath of that accident. it happened on may 29th when a huge ship or ems into to much smaller boat. desperately trying to bring to disservice here behind me actually boat. water

budapest thank you stephanie. now to sports and some of the favorites at the women's world cup have stuttered some have stumbled over the 1st 3 days of day 4 of the tournament to give fans a 1st look at the most dominant force of the last 2 decades the team from the usa the americans are defending champs and acutely aware the 2019 could be the toughest test yet i will record world champions usa a title defense this summer in france might prove more difficult than ever before. i think it's going to be a remarkable world cup i think the the level of competition 4 years on from the last one has exponentially increased the different teams now rising and it's going to be a very open world cup and we're excited to go out there and attack it. but a challenge doesn't daunt the country with nearly half the world's total registered female youth players and things to america's solid infrastructure of club and

college level football coach joe ellis has had a vast pool of players through crude from over the past 4 years her friends squad has a balanced mix of experience veterans and young talents. like 21 year old super sub mallory pugh she for one college football to play professionally and alongside her role models i was talking to alex like a week ago and she was like whatever role that year like give and just like play play it's the best that you can and that's super important because like we need all 23 players to try and win the world cup for the team star alex morgan it will be her 3rd time playing on the world's biggest stage in 2015 she was coming off an injury but this year she's expected to perform at her very. we're just trying to take it one game out of time and we're not focusing on the fact that we're looking to defend anything we're definitely looking to come out with a win in no way is about

a repeat or anything like that but repeated they might well attended and decisive wins in their per. aeration games indicate that the usa by continue dominating women's soccer well into the future. one woman who is highly skilled with the ball is not playing in the women's world cup that's because melody don't shape is a freestyler and the only woman to have won all 3 major titles in the freestyle football world an injury put an end to don't chase ambitions as a team player but it didn't and her fascination with the beautiful game. coordination full control and balance it seems middleby don't shrink from paris as if she's one of the world's best football freestylers. i like freestyle because it's a very free sport without rules above all it's an art a mix of football basketball and dunce. a knee injury put an end to her

professional soccer career over 10 years ago. transitioning smoothly to freestyle along with speed and energy technique is paramount and she quickly miles disk even complex tricks thanks to my favorite tricks called use of the stall. it goes like this you balance the ball on the sole of one foot with the other foot to one side with the. middle of the join the street style society s 32010 as its only female member but she's more than a match for the team mates for years she's trained 4 to 5 hours a day. native me right from the start when i was one or 2 years old my mother gave me some dulls threw them in the trash but when she gave me a bowl i was really happening. football's always been a part of my life. reliving his book for events the world over she takes part

regularly in international tournaments she's won the freestyle world championship title 4 times like here in 2016 in london. better for diesel truck been free styling for 10 years now i've been to around 50 countries and met lots of well known football is there. recently i got to know naima and i met cristiano ronaldo in japan. middleby has also become a social media success with the tricks with the ball videos like this one over him stand out being seen around the world so that i do feel it wasn't that hard for me to establish myself in this sport since i've been playing for my early years. and right from the start i played with boys. the moment she stopped him with the ball she's the center of attention as a woman who's mastered the ball she raises eyebrows.

to this is i think it's great that women can play at this level and deliver a performance like that i see this skill with the ball as a not log back along but when it's unusual for a woman to handle the ball into freestyle say well normally you only see boys doing that. these days the women's football is getting more and more attention. to. how much to serve berkeley think it's good that women's football keeps on developing and of course i'll be watching the women's world championships this time they're being held in france she knew so forced me to be doen shay's determined to show that she's just as good as the guys. are made in our top story on g.w. the international labor organization is marking its 1st one. 100 years a while globalization and technology are creating new opportunities 25000000 people
