this. coming up man and beast in a struggle for survival. appear to be losing that fight. also coming up a meeting between all weather friends prime minister. chinese leader hoping to shore up their support. plus. in hong kong this goal is to boycott the band's brand the move. from

a design contest. welcome to news asia it's good to have you with us they are i join animals good climb buzz and a strong storm has but these skills alone may not be sufficient to protect the indian leopard they have increasingly at risk of being killed either by poaching accidents or after attacks on villages attacks which come as a response to human and leopard populations coming too close to each other on next report contains images that some day was may find disturbing. 'd the conflict between humans and leopards is visible almost every day in a direct and the cats are paying

a high price for killing and maiming dozens of people in the indian state every year. people in these mountains have been living with leopards for centuries but nowadays that coexistence is much more frosts adults are afraid to let their children play alone fearful of the predators. last year in the village of jana gunn residents say a leopard killed a 6 year old boy. who say absolutely we had made a fire outside i got the part and cooking oil the child was standing right in front of us my mother in law was there too the leopard came and i saw him jumping on the boy we were shocked and stunned and only came back to our senses after a couple of seconds we started screaming leppert really did not say oh i didn't really bug. darling. days later the animal sneaked back and targeted a 15 year old orchard it was the leopard traced the boy he saw it and started

running some other people made a lot of noise and the leopard ran away. the boy jumped in panic during the chase. it was a deadly jump. cages like this are used to try and capture man eating leopards alive but often they trap young inexperienced sound of moles. this leopard will be set free money says almost never fall into the traps and hunters are called in after a leopard claims 3 or 4 human victims like pot saying ross has shot 53 big cats so far 51 leopards and 2 tigers he knows the animals very well. it's. a leopard turns into a money to its behavior changes. firstly the money to enters human settlements

between 6 and 8 o'clock in the evening. normal leopards usually only comb around 11 pm and leave by 3 am secondly money tears are not scared of humans because they see humans as their prey. more than 150 leopards have officially been declared managers and outright can do in the past 15 years almost all of them were shot dead . only humans are the reason behind this tragedy we have destroyed the leopards habitats its food chain and we have destroyed almost everything in the jungle. and then attacked a child for food we punish it with a death sentence. but it's not fair if we make mistakes and the leopards pay for them and the. world are a part of the wildfires often caused by human activity destroy the ecosystem of the

pine forests where the leopards live and feed while leopards need fresh meat every day hunting it down elsewhere if they can't find us in the forest. near ground ridge addition has been destroyed where small elements used to hate us no longer used to sort of. list in it that organisms serve the small animals and work that were to the front of them gores a religious so far there's no viable plan in place to protect the leopards and reduce attacks on humans only an unresolved struggles that takes a heavy toll on both sides. but to some prime minister imran khan is in china where he has been discussing the situation in indian controlled kashmir trying as president xi jinping and premier he could shine on has been trying to

drum up international support on the kashmir issue since august when delhi provoked a special status of its part of the region india and pakistan both claim cash made on a $42.00 laws over the disputed territory. in the past china has promised to help it's all about different court it's a legitimate rights and interests here as well the chinese foreign minister had to say after this latest round of meetings with china calls on india and pakistan to strengthen dialogue on disputes including kashmir to enhance mutual trust and improve relations and this is in line with the common interests of both india and pakistan and is the common expectation of the countries and the international community see that let's begin schama chums from the asia desk for more summit good to have you is islamabad satisfied with china's support on the kashmir issue so far. the pakistani government claims it is satisfied

with the chinese response on the kashmir dispute but many experts say that china's reaction has not been up to the pakistan's expectations. beaching definitely raised the issue on an international level even at the un but we have to understand that it has its own territory and the stakes in kashmir and at the same time john has huge economic and trade ties with india and it won't want to sabotage them for kashmir i think pakistan is aware of this reality but then why does it keep coming up all the time as you mention this came up in the u.n. g.a. speech that imran khan made in the new york and then now he's again back in china just give us a sense of why this issue is so important for him run on. i believe stands and diana security not active revolves around the kashmir conflict the country's military for example garners much

a 3rd spot to end the india not if i'm the kashmir is at the core of it and understands this and that is one of the reasons he wants to push it internationally it is also true that he's gathering to the pakistani public also his voters for whom the kashmir conflict is bit off and an emotional issue it also helped his government divert attention from grave economic problems in pakistan i believe. talk to us a bit about the timing of your mom come visit. chinese president xi jinping will be in india in a couple of days to meet prime minister narendra modi does khan's visit have anything to do with that i believe that pakistan wanted this meeting in china before president xi traveled to india islamabad needs some assurances from beijing which i think it has gone already that its core is script huge interest should be should not be compromised for the sake of china's economic ties with india.

this is the man comes out 3rd a visit to china since becoming prime minister in august how important is china. british extremely important and mainly for its strategic reasons pakistan needs china's support to counter india's pala india's a much bigger power than pakistan both economically and when it militarily and china can be a counter force also for economic reasons china's economic ordered or project is significant but we receive reports that its space has slowed since khan came to power last year. schauble charms thank you so much for joining us and britain don't for us thanks thanks bruce for having me. on the news from hong kong all workload. bans is the latest bribes in a boy caught in the chinese dirty feet it is under protestors in the chinese

territory by censoring designs giving a shout out to the city's role democracy movement. has been looking into that story and she's with me now in the studio. what exactly is going on well this is all about hong kong and as you say those pro-democracy protests have been going on for several months now and we can look at this particular design which has upset china in particular on the top you can see a red flower which appears on hong kong's fly and one of the yellow umbrellas synonymous with the city's 2014 pro-democracy protests and illustrations as well on the shoe side which depict protesters wearing gas masks and goggles and hard hats now reportedly off to voting opened on the fan sites last week it was this particular design that proved to be very popular it gone to tens of thousands of

votes but within just a few days it had been removed from the sites altogether now the brand just put out a very long statement on facebook and we can highlight one particular line which states that france has never taken a political position and therefore reviews designs to ensure they are in line with our company's long held values of respect and tolerance for might be old but i'm guessing that congress didn't really except it you could say that i mean there has been fury among people in hong kong who've taken to social media with photos and with videos and we can see a one. video in which the snake is being thrown in the bin and there we see that there there's also a brand new pair just ahead that are being flushed down the loo and in the next photo you can see that the trainers have actually been set on fire but i think the problem from these global brands is that they have to be very careful obviously not

to offend china and we saw that just this week with the u.s. basketball team the houston rockets being shunned in china because they had general manager put out a tweet that was sympathetic to these hong kong protest is and china was absolutely furious they have really had to pay for it particularly the n.b.a. league the basketball league in america they've deleted the tweet but it's certainly not over for them china obviously they have these companies these brands have to be very careful with them but as we're seeing with this particular issue with vans and also the hong kong protest is it you know it may not be as big a market but they're certainly very vocal and something that they need to be careful about isn't it their results. but so much for coming in on the of course. go to our website. all the latest updates on the situation in hong kong.

from our correspondents stationed in the chinese territory that's it for today we will see you again next. week.

this is state of the news africa coming up in the next 15 minutes kenya's green future at the price of heritage. the messiah community feel as small evictions from their ancestral land as the government moves to expand its energy projects. was. born off. and will take its somalia way one woman is raising her voice. piece.

hello i'm christine want to welcome to news africa it's good to have you along our 1st stories a day is playing hours in kenya on land that was historically home to the indigenous people and i hold that thought for a 2nd because last year kenya's president kenyatta announced plans to move the country to 100 percent of green energy by 2020 yes that's next year and it's possible because at the time of the announcement 70 percent of the nation's installed electricity capacity already came from renewable energy sources now to meet its 2020 target kenya has to expand its existing geothermal power project and that's where the messiah come in they've been forcibly evicted from their land in the past for this project they now fear more evictions. deep inside hell's gate national park canyons green revolution is brewing literally

here in the rift valley kenya's energy generating giant ken jenne operates 5 geothermal power plants they convert steam generated from hot rocks deep underground into electricity. before can join came this was the home of the messiah their cattle is now all that's left here. don you know all the shah is one of the original inhabitants he was relegated. and now lives in the house provided by the company 16 kilometers away plus one east. of the outlets. called is also. broken there are. between arts. the man and the livestock we're not we're not. civilized people so we're just a little bit how little. keeping cattle is the

least of jane sick convoy's worries she too was displaced her husband a messiah died before the resettlement took place where they did not get a new house because she's not messiah herself without access to water or electricity sitcom or no struggles to get by. but i depend on my neighbors when they get something they share if i was given my own house i would be empowered now i am destitute they didn't give me anything. because. of course many of them are says i've talked to recognize that climate change is an issue that needs to be addressed in fact many of them feel the effects of climate change and global warming in their daily lives already but 9 plans such as this one

you see behind me still need to be built in the region and for the messiah as the price of kenya's green energy transition is just too high to pay. inside the park only if you must so villagers remain the land on which this community live has been singled out for prospective drilling the villagers were almost forced to live in the past this villager says he lives in fear he wishes to remain anonymous of course we're still under threat the company is still interested in the sound we sense that in future they will the victors we remain determined that we will not be moved from our ancestral land. karen john was unavailable for comments on the resettlement plans the must. remain alert to a sense the country has future is not right for everyone is. my guest today is an investigative journalist and writer in kenya. can tie is also

a researcher on native rights welcome to africa possibly no so what is the tension between the kenyan government and the messiah community in hell's gate national park tell us. all 1. just for example out of new edition. i think i think if you want to get through growth particularly if you. get. good luck or. over it you know you move from the area that he was going to with valley area. 'd to be precise. in mind for full size a british government file 'd. so we set up for street your snooty each of which then move on from the simple result area to further up

north to like into the mosque which is which will construe to say as well for the mosques are living in that area of the moment a remnant committed to a very small very small community and therefore very 'd vulnerable and exposed they don't have much in the way of political representation they have of their other relationships with the state that is predatory against them do you see each seem to be describing you know as as far as as i can get from your explanation this is a problem that dates back many many years so to say but i would like to put this to you you have a government the kenyan government that is trying to secure and renewal bill energy future for the country as the same time is obligated to secure property rights for communities like the messiah can the government do both realistically of full force the government can do for i think they will reserve

wife and kids in fact. if you move through history and you're seeking good renewable and solutions and if you exist. you are victimized again as for that certain communities need to suffer i will. feel if if if if that is the weak being then. here you creating a situation that again is a question for which 402 of them. well you know the flow of 'd the lights. through because we can do focus inside. or 'd regional we are sort of a slug. for health. care is concerned with the gypsum of energy but 1st the source view that was made. was broken by the one focus on finance for the world bank on one very clear provision of

a lot about family 4 to communities and to africa for the just last area was going to be your case just fine people you know if you were people of little to the very very critical for. what we are seeing today you can see something is something that is markedly different. from the hospital has the state always been seen following through with its obligations to communities like them aside. from either the colonial governments lol lol of a lot of independent can and governments which the in many ways appears to have. taken up to half of the bad guys it's all because of the british colonial government none of them ever being fair to either the marseilles or other of my marriage with my large communities in the rift valley from the coast in northern kenya and another place. you melissa it's awful that that would come sites.

which which once were civil suits. i think a little can tie thank you. the conflict between the 1000000 government and jihad just in mali is impacting on people across the country and musicians are among those caught in the middle with a ban on news they composed by islamists in the country they operate in or to retrieve a control or a ban on public performances by the government she took on security consonants now the result is the same musicians have been silenced in recent years state every is funny with one woman who is determined her voice will be hood. the sound of peace and hope. is you has wanted to sing all her life but when she wanted to sing the most she had to stop that was 7 years ago when the war started the jihad is to ban music and the

money in government still limits public gatherings so no music festivals forbid you could play there's no must it's not like it was before the war focus artists we hardly a plane but michael. the artist are scared just seeing at certain places this subset of. stuff or because this. is singing again in this studio working on a 1st album she does not know where she will perform it in mali but she keeps scoring . we have to stay together as maggie and nothing is better than she is music is my weapon. strew music i can talk to the children of israel speak for them and speak with a woman. aims to restore hope yet she too becomes

emotional about the situation around her today she has a very special audience it is public yet hidden from the programmer to temporary shelters for full army people called largely unnoticed in bamako. performs for them about 800 people if you are they had to leave their village after it was attacked by a rival group they say the children just want to hear you sing with a lot of. them send them off. as we should should makes me believe that this is too much for 100. somehow this is here. a mother of 5 children nearby heard bijou seeing and also heard her cry going to music is beautiful but we need peace. peace that is becoming an increasingly distant goal in mali as the country struggles to overcome violence

between rival ethnic groups. for centuries different groups live side by side but now they are killing each other fighting over influence and access to food and land in addition a jihad is insurgency continues to cripple mali leaving civilians like them in the crosshairs what. is you keep seeing for them giving them a voice because that is all she can do with her music for now she says. god and that is it for now from dayton is africa as always you can catch all our stories on our website and facebook page will leave you now with more music from brazil one day i found out. there.
