my choice is scott because even. trolls. this is the. coming up a sign of things to come protesters clashed with police on the streets of hong kong the head of the most important celebration in decades the people's republic turn 17 on tuesday. it has nothing to celebrate. but the couple has pulled out all the stops for a grand show on tuesday. using technology to save on time this is helping thousands navigate talk. more efficiently.

welcome to the show it's good to have you with us now it seems like these behind me that beijing wants to avoid ahead of massive celebrations on tuesday china 70 and these clashes on the streets of hong kong don't fit in with the narrative of happy he's full prosperous nation and the people on the streets of hong kong. as to why they don't believe that. it's images like the beijing hoped would have long. chinese president xi jinping and. instead mass demonstrations have dominated the count. down to the 70th anniversary

of the people's republic of china these protesters are no mood to celebrate. with the world watching closely they want to capitalize on the attention and make them and ahead we should be a great day but we really can find a reason to start to bring we feel more sorry and sorrow for what do you have suffered i hope to make our country attention to understand more whites we are going to fight for this this spring is a good one to protest to to show them home we will lose. feet of where we will no matter how low. also artie's hit their mass on rest on cheese day they want to avoid a repeat of more scenes like this. images of angry young patients should threaten the full focus from beijing celebrations and embarrass authorities police have made

clear this weekend that un sanctioned rallies will not be tolerated boss there's only so much they can do to keep people off the streets instead of massively scaled back the annual celebrations to prevent them from being swarmed by protesters ordinarily this area behind me is packed with people marking the anniversary this year though all the ceremonies have had to be moved inside into that building that roadblocks like these ones stopping people from even getting close in the evening a massive fireworks display that usually lights up the sky behind me drawing thousands has also had to be councils. if you look hard enough you will find some signs of support for the anniversary a few lone flags lined the streets of a neighborhood known for its prey beijing sentiment. one local shop owner tells me he's looking forward to the anniversary but even he will be marking it.

but they. don't want you to go it i will spend the day doing my duty as a chinese citizen i will do my best to run my business well and keep working. as the night fools these few symbols of support for beijing torn to the ground for democracy supporters unwilling to let even the slightest hint of celebration go untouched. joining us knowledge on this in hong kong already good to see you is a hong kong a reading it's a day of clashes on tuesday yes tomorrow october 1st is going to be a really big day it's 70 year anniversary of the founding of the people's republic of china so it's a very sensitive day program beijing government and and it's also a public holiday here everyone's in there protesters are planned events all over the city i think it will probably be the worst day of protests that we've seen so far in almost 4 months of protests and everyone sort of bracing themselves for it

and course we also don't know exactly what's going to happen but the place has already put out warnings they've sent out i warn ing messages to everyone's balance saying that tomorrow should be very dangerous what exactly is the buy another in which the government plans to deal with these protests because as you mention deceptive the anniversary of china's founding a very important day in hong kong as well and on a day in which protesters will be protesting how does the government plan to counter them. well the governor in the parlor you be using more of the same tactics that they use so far so yesterday for example we saw the use of water cannons they spray water that is also laced the blue dye with pepper spray and chemical the news a lot of tear gas and rubber bullets from willits pepper spray bullets so it's probably more of that but on a more intense level they did fire one live round yesterday i believe that's the

3rd or 4th time that they have tired live warning shots they have not used it to aim at anyone so far so i'm not sure if you'll see an escalation in the methods but i think we'll see an escalation in terms of intensity in terms of the number of arrests made in terms of maybe the violence you ras i think becoming increasingly violent so we'll see tomorrow the run of these protests have been on for more than 3 months now just help us understand to hong kong how's your daily life impacted because of these protests or the protests almost all the time or only on the weekends so donna weekends they generally start in the early afternoon and go into the evening and they don't go that may be usually and before midnight or shortly after night because that's when the subway closes and most protests are do have to get home so on the weekend i would say people's lives are destructed they have to know where the protests are happening you have to avoid

them nowadays it's very common for any m.t.f. are the subway to shut down stations specially in response to more and more vandalism against n.p.r. stations so people's lives are disrupted that they're not able to get to certain places or they have to whites are grazers they're mostly on the weekends and people are still going to school there so going to work and they're still in gauging social activities that's normal and just you know where done this laurel george's big draws from hong kong thank you so much for that and you. and while hong kong remains tense beijing finalizes celebrations here as a roundup of the peasantry planned for tuesday. every note and every step carefully choreographed hurst china is deploying $15000.00 personnel for its largest ever military parade a display of strength that will flow into no ray of hardware from fighter jets to

supersonic drones on its 70th anniversary the people's republic wants to showcase its transformation into an economic and military power host. for president xi jinping it's a key moment to assert his vision for china on the eve of the communist states birthday he paid his respects to its find a mouse a dong she has set out to secure his own place in history with efforts to establish china as a major player on the international stage. those efforts lately undermined by a trade war with the u.s. as well as protests in hong kong which have drawn attention to china's human rights record but snow dissenting voices will be alive to ruin the atmosphere on tuesday the parade is invitation only and beijing has stepped up internet controls ahead of the occasion with the capital festooned with decorations patriotism is the order of today. what i think if our country is powerful then we won't be pushed around

anymore by other countries. will have even more of a voice on the international stage and will be able to safeguard our people's interests i mean really it is over and i'm very excited i can't wait to see it because it's a national parade and as a kid i really wanted to be a soldier and each time our own national day when we have this parade afield our country is very powerful i feel that we're very safe. with final rehearsals underway that's a message of keen to broadcast they've even distributed over 600000 t.v. sets to ensure people tune in more than just a spectacle this is a narrative for the masses xi jinping chinese dream brought to life. correspondent. explain the significance of the celebrations. the communist party has built its legitimacy what he sees as its legitimacy on

nationalism during the past 30 years as obviously communist ideology does not really match the situation on the ground in china so these raids these nationalist displays of power. extremely important to the communist party and of course there will be little mention off the economic problems that trade dispute but also internal economic problems and of course the hong kong protests have been censored carefully during the whole sum up especially in the cost stays but is boiling over we'll have more on those celebrations and possible protests tomorrow and of course more details on our website they'd have a dot com forward slash isha. that's one thing you can never get back and it's always a running time it's
