1:06 pm
a picture for us if you will what's the mood in this city today. sort of the mood is when it defines these protests as they are turning out several sites across the city they have. and is there a policy of converging on one particular sites that really stretching the police by choosing a several sites in in bangkok and they are very angry that angry that so many of their leaders have being arrested they're angry that the riot police and water cannons were sent in on friday night and they are also. defines in the face of they used this government decree that is supposed to find any government will in full people but lisa said today that they're going to look at video evidence to prosecute people attending these rallies on labels to said they're going to monitor and look at social media activity even people posting selfies they say they will use that as evidence that you got that illegally under
1:07 pm
this decree so we have about 30 seconds left i just want to ask you again so again public gatherings are banned the transit systems shut down clearly the government's using almost everything in its arsenal to shut down this unrest in its tracks will protesters be able to continue to organize. sure they get they they currently are they using our social media they used to encrypt channels that bangkok is full of. is that getting around that way the government's attempts are so closed on the public transport system it's probably just kind of a change average from caucasians who are not part of the protests certainly not wanting to stop the actual protestors thank you that's philip sure well in bangkok much appreciated. now to some of the other stories making news around the world at this hour voting has begun in guinea's presidential election the incumbent 82 year old alpha condé is bidding for

a controversial 3rd term after redrawing the constitution the move triggered months of mass protest sparking fears of violence on polling day. a landslide has hit a military barracks in central vietnam burying at least 22 soldiers several bodies have been recovered rescuers are searching for those still missing and a slide is the latest to hit the region following the 2 weeks of heavy rains and storm. like armenia and azerbaijan have accused each other of breaking the latest cease fire in the disputed no go to cover region just hours after it came into force the truce agreed late on saturday was the 2nd attempted armistice in a week it came after both sides exchanged missile strikes on friday night hundreds have died in 3 weeks of clashes over the region. we're joined now by correspondent in turkey dorian jones dorian good to see you what else can you tell
1:09 pm
us about what's happening there now go to karbala this morning. well the ceasefire all true stars seem to be in trouble even from its very start according to armenia they say that their forces came on to sustain fire just minutes after the truce was coming into force by zhang claims to its servers eventually areas were under sustained attack from heavy artillery also claims of shot down an armenian fighter jet which it said was poised to launch attacks on its forces after the ceasefire and this just really underlines how precarious is attempted to organizing a humanitarian truce which is only seeking to allow the return of the bodies of those killed to either side and also the exchange of prisoners and this is the 2nd attempt of such a humanitarian truce and both have been organized by moscow moscow likes to see itself as a main player in the region and in many ways its procedure in the region is now on the line if you can't deliver this truce during your base in istanbul of course you
1:10 pm
mention moscow turkey is a staunch ally of john what role exactly is ankara playing in this conflict for turkey is our versions closest ally in fact they refer to them as one people 2 nations and uncle has been giving major military support in terms of training expertise and also in the run up to this latest outbreak of violence he's been selling its latest sophisticated weapons including its drones which are seen in many ways as a game changer in the conflict in heavy losses on armenian forces but turkey's support extends far beyond military it's also providing major diplomatic support it's in the forefront of opposing any calls for an unconditional ceasefire saying any cease fire should only come about when armenia gives a commitment to withdraw all its withdraw all of its forces from serry territory so in many ways turkey is providing the steel far as a strong position. dorrian think you that story and join speaking to us from

forces start a new offensive to many questions and no answers. the u.s. is in the final stages of its presidential elections president trump is counting on the support of a large group of voters conservative christians they believe that trump fights on their side against abortion rights. christine mending meets fellow activists they are all devoted to the cause christian found inspiration in the bible which she takes this really. they are on their way to an abortion clinic to try to persuade women to keep their pregnancies. and telling calls like her make up 25 percent of us waters most of them share a central goal to ban abortion. we are kind of the the last
1:21 pm
stop before that abortion we want to reach them one more time and so that's why we're here it's my duty to do what i can do here to persuade as many people to not have abortions as possible but ultimately that's in god's hands and one day they will have to give an answer to god. she and her fellow activists believe donald trump is as committed as they are to banning abortion. abortion is such an important issue in our time and i cannot trust a president who believes that abortion is ok without the right to life we have nothing so if we're taking away and it's a life no one has right the right to life is so important and i'm seeing that from him and that's why i will be voting for him politics professor laura vinson from the university of indianapolis has been analyzing trump's supporters the evangelical vote is critical to donald trump's reelection they've been essential part of his base since he began running in 2016 and even though sometimes the
1:22 pm
president has wavered on policy issues the evangelicals have never wavered on their support for him there's no generation gap in terms of the evangelical bloc you see this with younger voters obviously with older voters in their support as well and you don't see a difference in terms of age christina studying to be a nurse in her spare time she's already trying to save lives one way talking with people about abortion another way she says is by voting for truong there's a lot about donald trump that i don't like that i don't agree with but in the areas that he does promote truth and justice i pray that god would bless his administration heavenly father who thinking that you were of offer of life prayer office crucial support for her and her friends they are also praying for donald trump that is reelected to fight with them against abortion.
1:23 pm
in europe the number of corona virus infections continues to soar including in germany concern is growing at the pandemic could spread even further that's why easily accessible testing facilities are in high demand. 12 meters long and growing. that's the length of today's line at a medical practice in berlin. people have come here to get tested for corona through the window i think it's a really nice option doesn't take so much time and it's it may be safer than going to of hospital and sitting in the close space where patients can be sick but here everything everyone is wearing masks and the just for the window so i think it's really nice that the doctors ability cuts and runs the practice she's bracing herself for a harsh corona winter with many more patients to deal with. any time you want my advice i don't want to be a prophet of doom and gloom but the numbers are clearly going up we all want to
1:24 pm
prevent another lockdown so we don't want to have to close the schools again somehow we've got to get through this winter. to prepare for what's coming germany wants to set up more testing stations they would receive people running at a high temperature or with other corona symptoms additionally the public health office which tracks infected people was promised more personnel but that has yet to materialize. and the politicians have pledged to bolster the health authorities over the next 5 years this requires the creation of 5000 new jobs but now as october and november approach the jobs don't yet exist in the health offices this is a problem that urgently needs to be addressed. but instead of relying solely on germany's health care and tracking system dr cuts would rather make testing at home possible. you mustn't move to cut it will have to be given the
1:25 pm
chance to do a test without a doctor to go to the pharmacy and buy a test although they do not guarantee 100 percent accuracy when they provide an excellent indicator and are absolutely adequate from an epidemiological point of view because the swamp test involves taking a sample between the nose and mouth it shows the results within 15 minutes without sending the sample to a laboratory in germany though only doctors and pharmacists are allowed to order them should infection start rising sharply in winter they might be an alternative to long lines in the cold. our last stop is belgium the pandemic has already claimed more than 10000 lives and this european country the story of 10 year old lorenzo who lost his grandfather to the virus reflects the tragedy of every single loss. the world has lost a 1000000 lives. one of them meant the world to 10 year old lorenzo my

1:35 pm
a lot in the past but when he received an artist of the what that was in 2009 he won the respect of his critics east now spends his time in boarding the medium capital of india and cologne germany. plays into them and hi my name is is born raised in the movie and musician and i would like to take you to my world of never leave us. an example also known as easy is already a star beyond the borders of his home country namibia the artist lyrics are a mix of afrikaans english and german and a 1000000 slang. words of buffy copulated but culturally diverse maybe as a former german colony. the country was ruled by apartheid south africa before achieving independence in 1900. even as music stand for unity and creating an olympian multicultural identity. with
1:36 pm
a mix of quite tall afro pop reggae and hip hop each has created a distinct music genre which he called nam flavor. oh then flavor means. everything that happens in the maybe because people used to say as a white every can you're not doing 100 percent quite vocal spite of can only be done by black africans and then to some point i just said ok to those few haters saying that it's fine i don't have flavor because all my music or my fashion or my lifestyle or my my language everything i talk is inspired by namibia and i'm a bit has a lot of flavor so it needs its own would now flavor. but each has been on the southern african music scene for long it's collaboration with several quite a great has won him awards and respect but that's not enough to eat who wants to bring quite amusing to the next level. i would love to see quite
1:37 pm
a music and the whole afrobeat get more global reach because i feel that the energy and the positivity behind quite a music is something we know we need to share with the rest of the world. and eric zell. is here with us today looking all pumped up. ok let me know your horse and i wouldn't. but hey you doing really cool stuff thank you very much it's meaning quite to that you do for those of us that don't know. what would you describe it quite the music is a mixture of house music music hip hop music all mixed together. during the last stages of apartheid was a part of movement and then after apartheid it's switched into something very celebrating of the african southern african lifestyle so quite to music it's very
1:38 pm
positive very energetic you cannot sit still when the music plays so you are not well because you just cannot sit still it's a lot of beads a lot of energy in it what really drove you into quite to music was it just because i said quite the media. you want to prove that you'll be successful at it or. usually i just go from the gut feeling that i feel something feels right i just do it so in the beginning people said ok listen but how can you do quite to music as a white african it's not possible and i didn't even i just blocked out everything i just said right now i love quite the music i was born in africa i was raised with quite the music so i can i not do quite though so i'll just block out all the talking or the hate and just did what feels right and yeah and how how's the how's the jenny bins of and on and on it's an honor to wake up in the morning and to do music it's on the to represent the namibian i call it never flavor style namibian
1:39 pm
lifestyle the african culture because i feel we have such a rich culture in africa and i want to bring that energy and i want to show to the world that we laugh seeing what you do it now just to quote something that you've said before you said you want to create unity and i'm on a maybe and multi-cultural identity through your music why is that important to you . i just i've seen and i've experienced the power of music i see what music can do when i do shows in africa i see all types of people all types of races or topples colors language all coming to one dancing to one song i think with music we can we can achieve so much more than many other politicians tried to do for many years so i think music is something which i'm focusing on too to unite people cause we are we are all humans and when the music plays inside we all feel the same so that's the energy i want i don't know it's just feels right we cut it up war on the charts
1:40 pm
but talking about music it's not easy for african artists to market their music that's all bang study internet generous like awful beats and high life i've enjoyed some success on the global music scene now there's a new generation of musicians produce and high quality marketable music called afro pop with some pretty cool music videos and it seems it's here to stay like this out . after pop wave of led by artists like nigerian star byrne a boy who found his fame for his music and has an exploding following. with his national breakthrough came with his 2800 single year followed by collaboration's with storms me and ed sheeran for the song own it. that song reached number one in the british charts. another west african superstar is dancehall musician shuteye wiley from gonna. try to hit. his international profile recently got
1:41 pm
a boost through his work and beyond his single already on the road. and the soundtrack for the coronavirus crisis which has given so many people across the globe pope and entertainment has been a song generous selema. this gem from south african artist mastication he set up a global dance craze known as the jury. selema act done challenge. and . now you cannot stop them. you cannot tell me that you've not heard this song and dance to it you know some of our folks on our facebook page sent us some comments on that particular song let me read a couple of them press seat girls from cameroon says i love the song should go higher than it already has so do you see it quite
1:42 pm
a 1000000 views over 160000000 i should say but i would say our friend also from uganda says music is life and hope to selema house life though many thanks for those comments appreciate that and back to you i mean you were dancing to it you know i was wrong so the thing is like i said earlier it's received over 160000000 views on on you tube what about the song made it such a big hit. the real in this there wasn't ignace behind it. i've known muffler cages songs for quite some time now and. they have they have the certain things which you you cannot just sit still and i think he made the song where there would cannot sit still we have to go out and it's just it's a proud moment i think for all of us africans to see a song like that go so big that the rhythm is so typical quite to
1:43 pm
a full. by so that's i think as you mentioned you know the beats for it is very key but is there any more to making music a hit than just the beats right used you somehow have to i don't know because i don't even a standard language i don't know what you're saying but it's still a vibe that you know what adding greedy and. i couldn't tell you it's mostly a certain energy a certain energy which gets transported via the vocal via how the song structure is put together and because hits you don't just going to you make a hit the hit to this you there's a lot of local artist on the continent of you that you know if you want to rub shoulders with the $0.50 the evidence is a little all those big that is now you are going to have to speak english so as we wrap it in the assets and we in english but that's not it is it it's very sad to see when i went to the m.t.v. africa music awards in kenya and i see that this was some time back now but i see that how they celebrate more american stars than their own stars which i think we
1:44 pm
have so much rich culture and and musically i mean the 1st rhythms come from africa so we have it there to really push hard most people have been affected by the pandemic of in 1008 with you and your music how has it hit you if it has very much i've not done one live show this year my whole album which up in working on for over a year now it's on hold it's on ice so i cannot really release it if i don't if i can go out and do shows even though we're sitting here we have a plexiglas tween us which feels a bit weird but at least we can see. now like this which wasn't also the case 2 weeks ago so yeah it is affected us all but i think we should we should learn from it. and change as humans a few things the way we retreat nature because this will reoccur if we keep disrespecting nature so yeah it's been definitely great instrument it in you up and
1:45 pm
