officials aren't taking part in the press conferences and some participants want to talk about the attacks i think i think it should it's really iconic now that we're having this meeting demonstrations about. the building i think it should be a focus point. to some participants the causes for south africa's problems are clear . it's inequality so i think it's inequality which has just in turn few the anger which is led to the protests but the inequality also rising from the unemployment so there's a real challenge of unemployment and inequality too many people feel that their lives are not been touched and they feel that is an issue of justice and fairness and some of them are taking it out of other people because those are the people that are rich the time will come when they can reach beyond people and be at the

very structure of the global economy and people in this room where the decision makers structure the world have to recognize that that means politicians of the world economic forum may not be able to turn a blind eye to the attacks in south africa. spoke to our correspondent in cape town what kind of impact the riots are having on the mood there at the world economic forum. gad i would describe it a sort of an undercurrent a lot of people are speaking about it not necessarily during the main sessions but it's obviously a subject of conversation in fact the president us 3 of them of course of the south african president was supposed to deliver a speech today but unfortunately he was called to parliament to address this issue and his finance minister who ended up delivering that speech on his behalf ended it by saying that we are all african i suppose a note to mention you know that he understands that he is cognizant of what's happening outside the 4 walls of the conference center. where of course is not the

only topic there at the world economic forum inclusive growth is one of the big ones what does it actually mean and is that any progress. actually inclusive growth is the subject of conversation this year and the irony is not lost on anyone that as we're in here discussing that that outside there people who are saying that they feel and represented they feel misrepresented and that people who were in this country who say that how can we talk about an inclusive africa if right now we're not addressing the problems and the challenges that are affecting it what does it mean for the continent it means a lot of things that we've had before investing in the youth making sure that the infrastructure is robust in order to support a 4th industrial revolution but what has been so exciting and i suppose new is a focus on data a lot of people are saying that there needs to be urgent investment in data on this continent if inclusive growth is going to be actualized well. we hear

a lot of that that it needs to be on top of the agenda because african economies need to become a knowledge based economy is there any progress there though you can report. it's fairly new and the attitude that is being expressed right now with regard to data is a because it's so new there's a lot of stuff that we still don't know but that also means that there is a lot of potential when it comes to data how important is it on the continent well i was speaking to a panelist earlier who said that data is not just the new africa it is the oxygen it is what is essential and required in order to move this continent forward however we did recognize or rather the palace did recognize that there are lot of challenges in order for that to happen policies need to be implemented in order for cross data sharing cross border data sharing to happen infrastructure needs to be put up to support the kind of data management and collection that africa is hoping to get but there's a lot of excitement around data and understandably so of the world is moving

towards the 4th industrial revolution and that's all it's about. it came out and the world economic forum on africa in cape town thank you very much. and there are some of the other global business stories making headlines today the u.s. and china have agreed to new trade talks in washington in october it will be the 1st high level meeting since the tariff dispute escalated in recent weeks the agreement came in a phone call between the heads of the 2 trade delegations. faces another scandal this time with c. the c.e.o. he wrote. he has admitted receiving inappropriate bonuses from the comical but denies knowing about the before. why we placed calls going last year after going was arrested on 4 charges which he too you know. iran's nuclear deal continues to fall apart on the united states reintroduce sanctions tehran threaten to crank up your am in richmond again that's exactly what they said to do this
