a book. first i was afraid there was a lot of fear but our boss quickly introduced rules among other things everyone must wear gloves and masks we just have to follow them now. the local hospital has set up a dedicated coronavirus ward it is nearing capacity local governments and courts are currently debating the introduction of a curfew many residents blame mostly african migrant workers for the outbreak thousands came to gaydar in early summer at the beginning of the harvest season. or it is clearly seasonal workers who are to blame they come here to make money they don't care about anything else only work. they always move from place to place and some violate quarantine rules many also do not adhere to the applicable hygiene measures and. other more understands the concern of the locals the seasonal

workers spends almost every lunch break here in his regular cafe for him the problem is mainly due to the miserable conditions in which he and his colleagues have to live often there are up to 10 of them sleeping in one room and the guinea and says something many elsewhere on building to say that many work without a contract and are defenseless. he might be not the only imagine a person who is completely on his own what can the other still want and that is certainly 30 to 40 percent who have to work under these conditions. the most. the local government and has for a long time promised to deal with the problem however nobody has time for interview . one of the main groups affected by the corona virus outbreak. people that officially don't exist it's been an open secret for many years that many farms in the region rely on irregular migrants to cut salary costs in times of the coronavirus this strategy seems to backfire for horse work ogogo give our working

with a mask and gloves in the midday sun it's becoming increasingly hard but the boss who comes to check insists nobody works in his speech fields without a contract he insists that's possibly a reason why there hasn't been a single case of cold feet 19 here and for the shows filed that report for us let's bring him in and philip i'm sure people will be asking how did you actually get into a place under lockdown. well getting into the place was actually not so difficult the city has been under current scene for a week now but the trains still operates what was more difficult was while i was there the local government announced a very strict lockdown but in the same night doing the same night judge overturns the decision so the situation was very confusing and nobody really knew what was going on but the most difficult part was actually getting out of the city again

this morning train station was completely shut off there were a lot of policemen guarding the train station and to it took me a lot of time and i to present a lot of paper from w. my past part and my journalistic retaliation. to. go out of the city and to write i can watch it until you're out now it looks like you say could something good come out of this could the coronavirus change the conditions things work because for example a counter in that region. situation at the moment of course is extremely difficult but i think that could actually come something good out of it i think everybody has understood you know that's the way of doing business at the moment and especially. employ. workers very sustainable and in times of the corona virus actually involves

a lot of risks now the defenders of this concept that say at least gives some people without papers the opportunity to have some income but personally i think. the ones that benefit most from the ruthless business men that exploits the work us so i think something good could come out of that but i think we also have to be open to the discussion that in the future we might have to pay more for vegetables and fruits quite similar discussion to the ones to the one we having at the moment regarding meat processing industry. for themselves thank you very much for joining us. chinese exports and imports bounced back strongly last month they show year on year growth for the 1st time since the pandemic hit government stimulus measures for a rise in demand for commodities with imports by almost 3 percent imports from the united states boomed jumping by more than 11 percent chinese exports also rose slightly. let's bring in clifford coonan he's on and in china for many

years cliff how would you say china is coping with his pet and they make on the economic front. well i think china for us is a bit like a postcard from the future and it was the 1st place where the pandemic struck and it's also the 1st to recover in march already they started bringing back manufacturing and things i doubt it seems to be coping quite well on these export figures are better than expected we're also getting g.d.p. figures this this week which are also expected to show that the economy is growing so it appears to be so far coping with the coronavirus pretty well i'm coming out of the pandemic pretty well but there are a lot of challenges that remain there's so many other parts of the world that on dealing with is well on on an economic front at least surely that will hit demand to china at some stage i think it will 1st there's 2 problems 1st of all the domestic consumption which is long been a driver of the economy isn't growing and then as you say external demand is going

to be a big factor the u.s. is china's biggest export market relations between china and the u.s. are at their worst level their lowest level for decades and that's going to play a play a role in good going forward and i think that's going to be the main thing that the chinese government is now going to have to deal with cliff couldn't thank you very much for coming in. well moving on to another story the british government is expected to toughen its stance on china and announce a band of new huawei equipment on its 5 g. telecom networks later today the u.k. has been under pressure from washington to pull away from wild ways saying the state owned concern would allow china access to corporate military secrets gave the green light to the chinese tech family of the seeds of the to support in the building of its nationwide 5 g. telecommunications network it's. time to pull in our financial correspondent ali bots sounds bad but the take giant continues to generate revenue growth. really astonishing numbers when you take all things considered the pressure on wall

the chinese boss is in beijing or saying he wasn't successful enough in lobbying i'm going to las to explain why a man like this was important in a situation like this. throwing his hat into the ring and throw the towel into the ring at this crucial time but he does for us thank you very much. so that has begun distributing cash handouts from international aid millions of people are in need a pandemic is an economic crisis african nation is transitioning from 3 decades of rwanda now ousted autocrat. stores and markets in sudan's capital khartoum reopened last week the 3 months of lockdown have left many poor people here even poorer yes or mohammed a newer lives with his family of 11 in a working class suburb of khartoum they're part of the 80 percent of the sudanese
