chefs in south africa catering for the hungry and needy using projects that would have otherwise been thrown away. hello i'm christine it's good to have your company tanzania says' it has no plans to accept corona virus vaccine so the country's health minister dorothy insists the country is safe in state she's encouraging people to practice hygiene and use traditional medicine to fight disease as president 40 as face international criticism over his handling of the coronavirus pandemic it is unclear how the country is fairing at this stage but the african c.d.c. director says that if we do not fight this as a collective on the continent we will be doomed close quote. no masks

and no social distancing president john mark foley last week at a public event. well he keeps denying the seriousness of the disease and insists prayers are the cure. without providing any proof he even claims vaccines are dangerous. sometimes and he ends recently went abroad in search of coronavirus vaccines these people brought the virus into our country when they returned. let's stand firm this vaccine is not good at all. the government haven't published any coronavirus data for almost a year back then the country officially had just over 500 cases and 21 deaths president musharraf we has one people only to report official information on the virus and some activists have been arrested. on the streets adar salaam many people

still have faith in their president. or know about it we don't have corona virus in tanzania if the country have the virus the relevant ministry would issue a statement but for now it people should stop being fearful and work hard. but opposition politicians and some church leaders are speaking out telling their followers the virus does exist and saying people must take precautions yes most other countries prepare the vaccine rollout tanzania's health minister sees no need . for how you know. the ministry of health does not have any plans of receiving the covert 19 vaccine that is said to be in use in other countries. instead the minister is promoting a locally produced herbal remedy of lemons ginger and garlic.

and i'm now joined by journalists. welcome to the program sami so we will hear president and other senior government officials downplaying the seriousness of call that night what kind of an impact is that having on the tanzanian public. well i was so one of the interesting part has being you know confusion it's really about the public because you know a lot of times it is fall and use and the how of the day she ends you know but in the region other countries you know did give up dates about what's happening in the country you know we learn about the rest of the war doubting you know how they're fighting the virus and then into country you hear a lot of confusing messages from from kukkonen you know she chews the audience will remember for instance last studio prison mostly i know god has healed the country

from coronavirus and then sometimes he saves people should follow advices from health and she shows and i write she didn't record since so there's been a lot of confusion right and you talked about there being no official records but one of the countries health has been saying those at the front lines of work in the hospitals the top says. unfortunately we haven't been able to hear a lot from the government made it very clear the only people who are allowed in official standing in officiation formation regarding crowd of virus you know that the script the minister of health the prime minister and president himself and so it's not even doctors cannot speak about what they're experiencing in the hospital so we haven't been hampered here by place to handle accounts of doctors and fighting us sammy apart from encouraging people to practice high gain the hand-washing and tranquil herbal mixes has the government put any measures in place to curb the spread of the virus lockdowns for example. note the government has not

put any such measures and the president has made it very clear that lockdown is not something that he's going to consider to. disclose way back since last year when the coronavirus was confined to the country at the state. government economy fast people have to go out and you know and they're being calm and so did he was not planning to true to issue a lot of that even just a few weeks ago when he repeated that statement in saying that the government is not planning to impose in a lockdown. to tell us more about the role of the church is that it is self president before he who is a devout catholic quoted as saying that god had eliminated says akhil the 19 from tanzania. but the church leaders who have spoken out they're preaching a very different message how important is that. so i don't let the church lead us and really just the does at large i would say that they've been seen as

really if they're leaning that apple's leadership in terms of encouraging people to continue taking measures as we had for instance from you know i actually saw. the sunday tell you the congregation claimed he got a coronavirus ease in tanzania and he repeated say that the virus is in tanzania and that people should continue technicolor since he eyed people to a country where it must washing hands and gatherings and things like that and this is very important because tanzania it's such a religious country you know almost everyone in tanzania identify system south as item was lanes or christiane so somebody. you know it's a mother allegiance and so hearing these from very spiritual leaders talk spiritual redress is really kind of showing leadership in the country at a time when there's been a lot of consumer confusion is really at the state of coronavirus in the country so it is very very quiet. says that there are no official numbers coming from the

governments people have been muzzled inst into speaking what is likely the reality on the ground most countries on the continent are experiencing a very brittle 2nd wave any indications of what could be the picture in tanzania. it is very difficult indeed to know what exactly is the picture but if we had for instance from again from from a top catholic bishop just last week actually say there is something that they are not to seen which is quite unusual they say usually for instance in of an area they would buy it maybe there would be cold to attend some funeral services maybe once a week recently he ses they've been asked to talk to officiate this is to. get together every almost every day of the week but we also seeing a lot of you know the news here on social media by to feed us quite a lot quite unusual actually especially compared to how it was for instance before

december and even throughout last year a lot of people coming forward saying i've lost my power and harassed my uncle or lost my parents and so there's been a lot and usually increasing number of deaths in our reporting so that is the only indication but again we cannot come fum what exactly these people are dying we know coronel virus it's a disease that has been taking lives of many people so it's really not out of tune or place the situation that is sending a lot more thankful sent. and it is to south africa now where more than $10000000.00 tons of food go to waste every year and that's despite the fact that there are almost $60000000.00 people in the country who go hungry every single day now that food would have ended up in landfills but it's now saving hundreds of lives every day a group of local chefs calling themselves chefs with compassion are gathering waste

food that's that for human consumption cooking it and feeding thousands of people who have been burdened by covert 19 into. exactly how the weight of. the law it got into homes big events up to 100 children in and employed i think everybody. that would otherwise only to waste. this comes from the chefs on the ship. that's the beauty of chefs they are the ones who take the lead of a few products and keep it up for those who need it gives all of us and especially the guys and my core group around me a great sense of pride and a great sense of satisfaction and knowing that we have made a difference in so many lives and we have saved so many people from the brink of

hunger and starvation. tons of unsold they just abused and i believe that the organization is where almost from vegas frightful just every day. tells my story my kids alternate for the hospitals to eat expiry date. kathleen to sort out what can you tell me and much not. to put a group we've looked at before me for. some of the work that we thought about it 1st. of all. one sort of the focus here. distributed to more than to send those advantage a hospital. that does produce is and and or comes up to mischief groups many track to me. who more than 1.3 me don't move since ships would question stuff to be much nastier. charlayne to show he's one of the

chefs to make to the best means to feed. the pain that i saw within those people really motivated me to carry on cooking and there's going to be no step to the skulking as far as i am concerned. some of the symbols of the country that they need to produce and believe but as possible as to children's homes homes. and individuals in finding something just once you get up the p.c. free weeping ever seen. the new $100.00 voted to evolve the project out of their achievements too soon west and more importantly how to fall into hunger benny's. and that is that for now be sure to check out all of the stories on forward slash africa we're also on facebook and on twitter now shares of compassion on the only project producing narration for the needy and south africa so they will

leave you with pitches off community kitchens and a vibrant project that's still available they see it next time a. it's about billions. it's about power. it's about the foundation of the new world order the silk road. china wants to expand its influence with this trade network. but in europe there's

a sharp morning when for accepting money from the new superpower will become ended up in it because of. the chinese state has a lot of money at its disposal. and that's how the expanding and asserting its status and position in the world of. china's gateway to europe. starts feb 19th on d w. welcome the main winners of the sundance film festival coming up and also in the next quarter of a. love it or hate it the aptly named architectural style of brutal ism continues to divide opinion. and the multi-talented mexican conductor along

is getting all rhythmic with the danish national symphony orchestra. we begin with the winners of the sundance film festival in america which was mainly held virtually this year and the biggest winner was undoubtedly the touching coming of age drama. which garnered 4 wards including the grand jury prize the audience prize and best director of. the film is about ruby the only hearing member of an otherwise deaf family she's a talented singer and is torn between pursuing her love of music and her fear of abandoning parents. sundance is famous for its documentary section and another big winner there was the summer of soul which took the grand jury prize and the audience award to the documentary about the harlem cultural festival of 969 which is being dubbed the black woodstock and it's an incredible achievement for

1st time director thompson said known as quest love leader of the roots. the style of architecture called bruges is during the 1950 s. with the easy availability of concrete which was also cheap the term brutal ism is certainly not liked by architects of this kind of monumental muscular architecture divides opinion adored by some and hated by others well it's all around us and it also naseem to have its uses for city sport. and group of young gymnasts on the roof of the church of the catholic college community. in cologne with the churches blessing of course the athletes are inspired by the angular sixty's building. yeah you do it you made geometric shapes are amazingly beautiful and it's also

a bit futuristic even though it's quite old. concrete architecture so called brutal ism is in. the 1st edition of fight and atlas of brutalist architecture sold out in no time the comprehensive work features around 900 photos of brutalist buildings from the last 100 years brutalization the term refers to the french based on blue meaning exposed concrete the preferred material of this kind of architecture is often bombastic and many dismiss it as simply brutal the whole university in boca is one often maligned example but it also has its fans because they are grew up in neighboring hoosh that he found only beauty in the university campus. when the university was built in the 1960 s. my father started working here. where i was raised or

i grew up here and often played here your. back is unafraid of real concrete on the contrary he campaigned for more understanding for this radical architecture by posting his pictures in social networks and on fan community sites come creek and nature brutally is in need be and here it blends with plants and moss in much the same way as rock might living in exposed concrete can even be like living in nature the boundaries between outside and find a blood a concrete wall it's simply beautiful. but when you look at a world like that i think it has so much life it's so playful you can also do so much more with it much more than you can with a white wall. when restoring damaged areas special attention and sensitivity is required in order to preserve the living concrete in the past

problem areas were simply painted grey today stone specialists can carefully restore the pattern of created by lichen and most over the years a labor of love. concrete is beautiful if you're willing to see that beauty and these days many are. kennedy who i think is fair to say is a brutalist believe. it's a hot topic of the 1st 4 in britain for example there's a big discussion about preserving brutalist jams there was a campaign. which is the university student union building. it's a very nice building and they've also in germany the been some high profile cases this is the so-called spy. in berlin a building with

a macabre past as the former university animal testing lab which is also currently subject of a campaign to save it brutally isn't causing a bit of a stir in american so that's why one of the last actions of outgoing president donald trump was to issue an executive order to discourage the construction of new federal buildings in the fruits of the star of the robert c. weaver building in washington for example came in for some criticism as it was said it was widespread widespread criticized it's also received a lot of praise of course it was designed by powerhouse architect marcel broyard now a brutal isn't a went viral on social media some people saying it was inappropriate of donald trump to be concerning himself with architecture at a time of global pandemic but others saying that yes actually brutalist

architecture not quite as attractive as some of the classical styles that donald trump preferred obviously brutal is a dividing opinion detractors have a point sometimes well beauty is in the eye of the beholder and even i would not say that every concrete building is a monster piece some find bootless and problematic from an ideological point of view seeing as a manifestation of totalitarianism this is the monument in book area opened in the time of the communist totalitarian state a glorification of communist ideology probably but also a stunning piece of brutalist architecture it is thankfully now being restored with help from a german university. i mean is an extraordinary building give you that isn't brutal isn't just one of those top topics that sort of popular on social media not really that. important in the real world what is popular but it's not quite as popular as

can't switch brings me to my last point i very popular instagram channel called kant's brutal ism somebody had the brilliant idea refusing these 2. shows in the photo shop the results are quite magnificent and somewhat disturbing. somewhat disturbing set up. as always thanks very much for coming into the studio today. is it just a cliche that latin american musicians have more rhythm in their blood well mexican conductor a lot. perhaps a cliché as she's a bit of a percussionist herself this was apparent recently when she wrote the danish national symphony orchestra in copenhagen for a concert of mexican film music the music chose needed a very simple day you just picked stage and brought about some interesting

discussions on rhythm. in that you'd limit that back to the get the back of the bucket and then that this might sound like jibberish but it's how drummers and percussionists talk to each other don't get. mistakes in conductor under-developed pattern is working with a caution section of the danish national symphony orchestra. good to get it. it's rare for these musicians to take center stage like this. the danish national symphony orchestra plays a piece by mexican composer sylvester rather well to us. ellis miles it was written in 1039 as a films for. over a dozen for caution is performed for once and shining the string section. we have 2

small adjustments all the time so that's quite difficult because we have 13 players that need to do that just once it's all of the same time so that it needs a lot of a lot of eyes a lot of years. gradually other instruments join the party the peace builds to a glorious crescendo. the percussionists are 3 democratic has turned the normal orchestra hierarchy on its head. in classical music normally there is no place to the melody has not this time the military has to play to the reason. that. i'm like the black sheep of this alice album. because i am not a classical trained decision i am

a self-taught yes. guy i think along sees that as a positive. i love it when we get the sense from all the types of music it's all in reaching and many times i think that if we we need classical musicians need more here where else to do what we do because it's all going to is not so. you're. most of what i've learned i've learned from players much more than conductors who are great but as i go and ask you know how do you do this and what else can you do and what other options that i'm so i'm i'm happy to meet you that's with why you were in the band i mean. i think you're thinking. soon the band has picked up

a new member and then you send them marc meets mexican and the result is sure it's you can see. lots of all from a long. shot all that stage w classical music talk about them and i leave you today with what has to be the most famous whistle in popular music. when the change by the scorpion still the biggest selling single worldwide by a german artist released years ago this song more than any other now serves as a soundtrack to the full of the bull on the political and cultural up people's going on but that is small bye bye for now. the malabsorption.
