animals and their habitat. what to do with all our ways. we can make a difference by choosing reforestation over deforestation, recycling, disposable martin solutions overseen set in our ways is truly unique. and we know that that uniqueness is what allows us to live and survive. google ideas, the environmental theories in global 3000 on d, w, and you're watching d. w a news asia coming up today. why are so many women in east asia choosing not to have children? we take a closer look at the declining birth rate in the region and why governments are so worried with a dispatch from taiwan up to 80 to 90 percent of the 20. something group still haven't got married. 40 years ago, the group may already have have 2 to 3 children with thing delayed marriage and

child bearing. plus the afghan government and the taliban if not by choice, but by necessity find they must get along at least on one major project. and elephants on parade in china, where are they going and why? it's a mystery dumping wildlife experts use the use i melissa chant, thanks for joining us. china's announcement earlier this week about a change to its family planning policy to a maximum of 3 children per couple. grabbed a lot of attention, but it's not the only country in east asia facing a demographic crisis. south korea, for example, has spent billions of dollars trying to convince families to have more kids. japan's crisis has gone on for decades with serious economic consequences and tie
7:32 pm
one as well faces. the same problem is when you li reports from ty, pay in taiwan, your babies are born each year. last year it had the fertility rate of less than one child per woman. if the change is not reversed, the negative population grows could have a huge impact on economy and society. family demographers yet seeing john face much of the problem comes from changes in lifestyle this year. say up to 80 to 90 percent of the 20. something group still haven't got married the 40 years ago, the group may already have have 2 to 3 children with thing delayed marriage and child bearing. john also thinks that traditional concepts in east asia marriages have made women more cautious about deciding to get married punker. taiwan probably has the best gender equality is asia,
7:33 pm
but that is only reflected outside of the household like in education or a workplace where women are more equal to men. ever in house. how's the work low is mostly on women in terms of house for child raising and elder care responsibilities hold on a sudden and still has been an obstetrician for 11 years and thinks that i want society, you should give more flexibility in their life choices. this may be actually a fisher about your master's degree. you can be pregnant and then go back to school for a ph. d. we don't necessarily have to follow certain live sequence from schools graduations to marriage and child bearing. she also supports at the coupling of marriage and child bearing videos. there are so many we may my clinic that don't want to marriage, that they are hoping they can have a child that can't use the large official insemination for a single women. so they can have their own child. i feel bad. wish
7:34 pm
a lot of the in terms of what the family should look like. well, the nation's low fertility is cause for concern. it can also an opportunity for a taiwan to reconsider the tradition, a row of money and society, an opportunity for possibly a change for women. now, us, well us for future families. joining us as d w when you lee who filed that report when ye, the women, you know, why are they choosing not to have children? there's a lot of reasons. for example, i grew as the expert that told me about there's a delay marriage in taiwan. but of course if for people and my in late twenty's, like for example, friends around me, they are on there. most of them are married. and for my a close friend of mine who just marry last year,
7:35 pm
just told me that she does. she doesn't want to try because there's so many expenses. they have to take care of the child's education and maybe to find a babysitter. so there's just a lot of burden them then they have a lot of concerns on financial deviation. now declining birth rates, impact of countries, economic output, the fuel workers, you have, the less your economy will grow and that's the concern here. so what is the government of taiwan doing to convince people to have children so the government is trying to help couples to raise their children from age neuro to age 6. i raised the child raising stuff to be also increase the capacity of public child care centers in preschools. it has also increased the special task deduction for those who have children age under age 5. so these or,
7:36 pm
or to help ease the parents burden and also to ease their financial. jason has taiwan considered other options such as welcoming more immigrants of course there's a lot of voices calling for a well coming more immigrants. but this is not a priority priority for the government. however, the government has been trying to check highly skilled for intelligence and lose their related regulations for these for him. professionals, which may also help improve tiwana population structure. but as i mentioned that the government focus more on helping parents to raise children. and of course we've mentioned this is a challenge facing east asia in general. tell us a little bit more about some of the other countries. japan, for instance, face this problem, the very earliest yes, there has been a low history of total for 2 of your re decline in japan as started,
7:37 pm
or if there is a force in 2000. and it happened to even earlier than its neighbors, like taiwan or south korea, japan low till it read how to lead to the aging population. that even the population decline more than 25 percent of the population in japan or each state over $65.00. we have japan, we have japan as an example. so consciously, taiwan, south korea, and even china do need to prepare will. when he li, thank you so much for joining us. thank you. we mostly see the afghan government and the taliban in conflict, but sometimes cobble has no choice but to cooperate with the militants. one of the country's most important hydro electric dams is an example of this complicated relationship. kaji ki dam provides power to more than $3000000.00 people in the country south and is run by government forces though it sits in tele bon territory
7:38 pm
to the point that the insurgents even charge locals for the electricity generated by the dam. it's just another example of how the decades long conflict plays out in the most extraordinary ways. flying into a vital source of energy and income. ca, jackie dam on the hillman river is under siege. it's controlled by the f can government, but surrounded by taliban rebels. the only way government forces can get here is by air, a perilous journey run. but there by the taliban has attacked this area with heavy weapon. sometimes they've shut down to military helicopters close to the dam, make the hydro electric plant provides energy to millions of people. many of them live in areas beyond the government's control. policy
7:39 pm
electricity of this power project is distributed to all of jackie district. like, you know, it's clear there's a threat from the taliban and other challenges. so the government cannot collect the electricity fees. they're going to be in and i'm assuming it's the taliban, the taxes electricity in areas that controls which use about a 5th of the plants capacity. the blurred boundary between combat and cooperation is something workers here experience every day to reach the facility, they need to permits a government id and papers issued by the rebels. were still polarity to be we think danger on the way home and back to the down. we are crossing the front line between the government and the taliban. and for that several times when we were crossing the fighting started and we were caught in the conflict in the area.
7:40 pm
if it were what you're to pull out of that the taliban may tolerate the hydro electric plant staffers, but they give no respite to the government forces, guarding it from there. often lonely and exposed outposts. 3 little that we're surrounded. if we don't have a way out by land, we have to fly 1st to kandahar than some of the soldiers go to alaska. got couple czar and other areas. but i kind of kind of a conflict with compromises. as foreign troops prepared to leave afghanistan, perhaps the country will see more sharing of not just electrical power it's being called the longest distance migration of wild elephant recorded in china . a herd of 15 wandering elephants had embarked on
7:41 pm
a 500 kilometer journey after string from a nature reserve in china's south west. there now on the outskirts of the major city of quin mean, where authorities are rushing to try to keep them out of populated areas. an epic truck through southwest in china. destination unknown. no one certain why this heard of 15 wild asian elephant strayed from a peaceful, national nature as in united province. one theory is that their leader lacks experience and lead the group astray. other experts say the journey is the result of human development. and that the elephants of searching for new habitats, whatever the reason the track has become the longest distance migration of wild elephants ever recorded in china. this is, this is the 1st time in history that we've seen anything like this. it's never happened before. so everyone is trying to figure out why it's happening. we need to

7:53 pm
a real tragedy. i'm very happy eva bella. russian writes, and poets has lived in exile for many years. we met her at the like sick book in eastern germany. a year was latest book camel travel is about growing up in an era of conflicting transformations. that up was the interest. it was a very interesting time so that we, children saw and the periods were 3 different heroes or times who need or the to see dr. soviet union on 4 years or 5 years of independence celebration renee song and the latest era with the president and the regime. we see ruling today, side residential cash in the
7:54 pm
book is not valid. you look back on a soviet childhood, rather it tells with irony about the country court between times one. well then it can be found in school books. cations are taken in distant soviet republics, where a little go, having her photo taken with a camel, has just sucking her tummy. and when you learn to play the piano with a piano, a childhood in poverty and austerity in a post soviet culture that helped shape the country to this day, me up when you didn't come about by accident. rather he's a product of the soviet system. and that's where he can, how can power is the feeling? it's a very interesting dilution. wilkins, doing the transformation of power in the former soviet union from the communist party to a matthew estate or the coffee is the subject of the victim much of its novel
7:55 pm
revolution. it's the comical and turbulent story of a naive and out of touch architecture lecturer, who gets blackmailed by the messier, as he times the korea letter he's forced to complete assignments. so once critical spirit becomes a cynical and fruitful 7th of a secret order, the book is set in a symbolic moscow. during the recent protest, it became a manifesto of resistance. for many russians a huge proportion, bella, lucy, and russia. i'm very similar. we have both decided to make a post soviet legacy, the new ideology. in these countries, everything is still built on the ideals starlen inventing from ocean. there are many similarities. and when i talk about moscow at the turn of the century, i am of course, also talking about minsk, many people have come to realize that,
7:56 pm
especially during this repressive chime war, muscle loss control and as possible, you may want to just about everything is seen as as he said, even when a member of the opposition shouts, long live beto ross. they act in secret in backyards and streets where people can easily hide today. 9 months after the start of the protest, climate of fear hangs over the country all over the last 6 months. and i've had the feeling that our society has been cut off. and it's just when it was breathing, a sigh of relief. we are talking to, we're not hearing one another like we are in the most important voices. only those of famous artists and writers have fallen silence because everyone is afraid to speak. but we can't get into this fear human rights is to keep talking, to call a spade a spade, to remember everything. because sooner or later we will have to remember what

countries will face a slower recovery. in 2020, the number of work is living on less than $1.00. 90 a day increase to 700000000, raising 5 years of progress towards poverty eradication will get more on the impacts of current of ours on work as well. wide i've been speaking to the director general of the international labor organization, guy rider. i asked him if the pandemic had changed the global jobs market forever. it's a really difficult question to, to answer. of course, in the course of the pandemic, whilst we've had to deal with the virus itself, we've had to transform the way we've worked. and we've seen this migration to remote working, but that does not necessarily mean that the changes will be permanent and nor does it mean that the future is predetermined. we have choices to be made, policy decisions to be made. but that said, what can we see is the direction of travel right now? i think we can accept that they will be accelerated digitalization of work. i think
8:19 pm
we now have the capacity to move towards. i don't think a massive move towards remote working, but much more hybrid work forms, which will enable people if it's properly managed, to combine their private and professional lives much better. the downside of all of this is on current trajectories. it's only what's happening now as a recovery gets underway, i think there's a big risk that our world of work can become more on equal because we're seeing strong recovery quite good prospects for those in high income countries and high skilled jobs. but the reverse for those of the other end of the scale that i repeat, all of this is subject to the policy decisions that we make, no inevitable, it is out there. your report also mentioned that over the years to come, there will be jobs not created that would have otherwise being created of those in specific sectors. well, we know that
8:20 pm
a number of sectors have been really badly hit by this pandemic, and food and accommodation, tourism. i think we would expect them to bounce back pretty quickly to be honest. but there are others where they might be more permanent change. and one thinks of the, the retail and commercial sector where habits and the application of technology will simply change the way we behave. and then there are questions which remained to be answers. there's a lot of debate out there about whether permanently we have to show in global supply chains which are proven rather fragile, rather open to disruption, as many businesses saying, look, we have to shortly, simplify those supply chains. and if they do take that decision, i think that's going to have very important implications for production systems across the globe. and that, that will affect many countries in, in very, very profound and basic ways. and if i can just ask you quite briefly,
8:21 pm
is there a point in the near future when we can expect employment levels to recover to the point that they were before that the pandemic is not realistic? it is in quantitative terms. it's relisted to think that we can recover the numbers of jobs that would destroy during the pandemic. probably sometime in 2023. if you look at our report, that's where we're pointing towards. but it's your questions of employed. there is a new normal out there. the world of work will be different. i think the challenge ahead of us is to make sure it's better, more opportunities for everybody else than it currently is more resilient to shocks . we have to work on things like social protection, to make sure that the damage done in this pandemic will not be repeated when the next shock, whatever it may be. it's this guy ryder director general of the semester labor organization. thanks for joining us on data. we business. thank you. now the

world's biggest meat processing company, j. b. s, is slowly getting back online after a cyber attack. destructive production in north america and australia. the ransomware attack on the brazilian meet packet came just week after a similar incident shut down the colonial oil pipeline in the u. s. j vs said it was resuming operations at the vast majority of his plans. earlier, the white house j. b. s. had received a run some demand from a criminal organization based in russia. let's get more on that from isabel's scachar, who is a cybersecurity expert at the orpheum school for management and technology. thanks for joining us on the do you business? how sophisticated was this attack? so we don't have to full technical details, so it's difficult to say how sophisticated it was exactly i would say from the impact it is not a theory as,
8:23 pm
as other ransomware attacks in the past. but it definitely adds to the growing threat of rants where attacks generally and i see an industrial operational and a political dimension here. so the industrial dimension might not be as serious an offense because j b s reportedly got their systems back up and running again. nonetheless, the attack has effected north american australian systems and has halted work for thousands of employees. so that is quite serious in, in the effect of disrupting operations. and if such an attack last more than week or so, that really might lead to much more furious effects. and we can see that such an attack can target the food security of a country. and it can also, it also shows that ransomware proved to be a very lucrative business model,
8:24 pm
which is another serious aspect of this attack. i would say. the political dimension is another very serious aspect here because the ransom demand reportedly track came from a criminal organization which is likely based and russia. and so, as you just mentioned in the introduction that has evolved into geopolitical met her following up now on the colonial attack. previously and so this will feed into the discussion between president biden, president, putin at their summit later this month in geneva. and reportedly the white house has already been in touch with the russian government on the can we expect more attacks like this in the colonial pipeline attacks? unfortunately, i think yes, because there has been a steady increase in our ransomware attacks. i think there has been an increase of
8:25 pm
500 percent and ransomware attacks on industrial entities from 2018 to 2020 alone according to a report by the security firm driver us. and so we can see that ransomware has become a national security threat, at least in their impact. also, it's become very, extremely lucrative business model. and since we're going to have to live with the, i'm afraid we're at the time is about with a thank you very much for being with us here on the to be visible business. that's isabel scale. now in fact, have long been a part of diets in asia and africa, but in europe, not so much. however, habits are changing and some say market developing the european commission has now officially declared meal worms to be food, much to the delight of insects. farmers. many of whom were operating under temporary licenses at the moment that now hoping to grow that businesses and make bugs a biggest source of proteins. europeans are reported. laws,
