12:02 pm
under i asked controlled before liberation by iraqi and international troops. on this 3rd day of the pope's visit he flew north from baghdad to the city of erbil then by helicopter to mosul and next to carroll caution after a mass to 10000 people in erbil will return to baghdad then to rome on monday. joining me now is journalist owen hole the way his in iraq for the papal visit oh and what's the pontiff the main message being for the people of northern iraq today i think it's very symbolic t.q. going to these formulas let me state stronghold of mosul and touring diary which was devastated from the war and also more recently going to the going to care a culture that's a very strong christian church that the church inception was decimated during the the war isis new spices completely burnt out and were using it as a shooting ground so i think going there very symbolic and also it's
12:03 pm
a signal for the christians this region to come back to their homeland and return to areas like our culture of areas of the nation in the in the you know essentially since the war happened a lot of them the emigrate from iraq for our work just stayed in appeal now you spoke of some of the violence there in mosul and carrot caution is obviously a very different picture there today but still no doubt the most dangerous part of his journey so far. yeah i mean thankfully the islamic state of isis is not is not been able to recruit itself in and that take over any major urban areas but in the universe they still are operational so it's definitely a more risky element to his to his trip but i also think it was more this more important symbolic because of the predominance of the christian community in in this area so yeah there is and are at risk but as you said as well in your introduction the security detail on this on this on this papal visit is very very straight on but no doubt that security is the top of the iraqis concerns for the
12:04 pm
for the pope for the pontiff. now lighted today the pope is shuttled to say mass in erbil with thousands of people in attendance as i mean any issue made of this given the pandemic i think that has been one of the rate one of the one of the big concerns particularly when he does make its address of the sort of football stadium just literally comment to away from where i'm at that moment are i think though the the overwriting you know the overriding need to showcase a different iraq and also to toot toot to point to the importance of you know the christian community in this country is overriding but it is a definite concern and this is the gnostic event that how could the tension increase the increase the amount of current virus infections so sometimes be a risk but i think i think it's i think it's and i think that the authorities think it's justifiable. our whole way thanks very much an update.

12:07 pm
direct investment as well as in the ongoing conflicts especially in the border regions with ethnic minorities at times arming the armed organizations as well as arming and supplying and supporting our military and so it's a very complicated sort of relationship and many in the pro-democratic out are definitely very suspicious of chinese involvement. right amen journalist in yangon thanks very much for the update thank you for having me. let's get you up to speed with some other stories making news around the world now protesters in bangkok have defied a ban on public gatherings to call for the release of their detained leaders they said photos of time the time and thailand's king alight as they held a vigil outside the criminal court a protest movement emerged last year calling for reforms to the monarchy and the

12:38 pm
genre was born in the 1960 s. in the caribbean island of jamaica in the early seventy's it was popularized across the globe by artists like bob marley bitter tarshish bunny wailer johnny nash and burning spear reggae became so popular in africa that it even made a huge political impact in $1000.00 a.d. for example bob marley performed at the celebration for his involved with independents. had the kinds of messages that were relevant to the time they were relevant. in a very universal and global way the issues of struggle the issues all defeating oppression the situation in zimbabwe. and the the war the ongoing civil conflicts there that he had on his $979.00 album survival which i do believe is molly's best album the sound of reggae seems to be one secret
12:39 pm
to why it's so well loved in africa they can claim hi i'm a special connection between africa and reggae in jamaica has a history of slavery. reckon music is like was made hope you line up by the jamaican. africans who lived in germany because. it's like they found all of africa. and they started to improvise you know like use what you know it's in the i tunes like that and create this sound it called. so when we. listen to what it is like nor quite they know the song. you know its orbit and its quoting that comes with the sound and the mail order and many influential jamaican reggae stars i rest the far right rest of aryanism is a religion and
12:40 pm
a movement that originated in ethiopia in fact many jamaican rest revere the form a european emperor haile selassie and consider him a prophet or a deity of russia. his majesty is jesus he is that christ. the redeemer. so it's more than just him being the emperor because they will link everything biblically right to that line of state. now what i have often noticed in my home country tanzania is that people don't seem to have a problem with reggae but they do have a problem with what some call the rasta lifestyle the dreadlocks the songs that praise marijuana arrest as are often met with prejudices across african societies but there are 5 catches him and blessed by. university kids you know need through

12:42 pm
and right now many young african fans prefer listening to dancehall because it's more upbeat but a clear message remains the same one last. said many young people into types of music many reggae be it. lucky to be. actually older or hobby. even passed on so is rigor still relevant to and ration the round in lagos nigeria. to me was i live i like pretty good news if most people that i know does thing going to do. so i like them i don't regret anything but not simply because somebody else somebody told brigham music.
12:43 pm
