outside, as the judge, read out the ruling, and i want to acknowledge the deep and tremendous pain that all the families are feeling, especially the floyd family, the court committee to the cause of the commission of corrections for a period of 270 months. as to 70, the judge added that he was basing his sentence on the law, not on public opinion, but the question everyone is asking with 22 years enough to sharpens crime. for some, the sentence represent accountability. now they will focus on the other offices accused over floyd's murder. but the family that raged $22.00 and a half years is not enough. we will serve the life since we can get george back. the murder of george floyd created anger and gave rise to one of the u. s. as largest ever civil rights movements. one man has been condemned for that crime. but
12:04 pm
many of the cases remain unresolved. these activists believe that in the us justice has not yet been done. they w correspondent, stefan simmons in minneapolis and told us about the mixed feelings around the sentence among the community there. so how do people of color we talked to here? how does the flight family, how do the flight somebody legal team? how do they react to this hand was 22 and a half years for dark showing for the murder of george flight. are they satisfied that is maybe the wrong term for this? because can they be satisfied for a life? if somebody goes to prison for 22 and a half years? and in reality, after behaving nice in prison and going out of parole earlier for 15 years, came dest replaced the loot, the loss of life, probably enough, but do they recognize that this victory is a historic victory in criminal justice? yes, they do. satisfied, not so much. there's many, many voices you are said like anything below license radar. sharman is unacceptable
12:05 pm
one way or another. they're all saying the same thing. this even george floyd, even this case is just a stepping stone in the right direction. and dad are wrecked and that's what they say in their fight in their pursue off real police reform. meaningful police are for this concrete for racial justice and racial equality. and to wake lockdown has been imposed in sidney to contain an outbreak of the highly contagious cove. at 19 delta variance, than the restriction of restriction affects, more than 5000000 people in and around the trade in city. at least 80 cases have been reported. so far, most has been linked to a limousine driver who was infected while taking an international flight crew to quarantine hotel. the country remained largely unvaccinated. here's what the state premier had to say during the lockdown announcement. a few days ago, i said, this is the scariest time that i felt since the pandemic started. and that's proven
12:06 pm
to be the case. we should price out bill more cases. we're finding that all household context, unfortunately are getting the bars trying to miss ability is at least double what pre previous very, and have bank that we do need to price ourselves for potentially large number of cases in the following days. and that's why it's so important we take action. now. let's get the latest from sydney with john was roger, may not. roger locked down for millions because of some 80 new virus cases. i mean, for those of us living in europe, oil where that seems rather strict, why are they all thought he's taking this strict action? yeah, the, the figures are quite low by global standards, but they were enough to scare the new government into serious action and declaring a total lockdown of sidney from today and for the next 2 weeks to decide as being urged to stay at home unless they need to go shopping or have the central work to
12:07 pm
attend to which they call into it home or need a bit of exercise. shots can stay open, but cafe are only being allowed to take away. the wedding will be allowed tomorrow off the normal wedding for the support and ask for funerals. well, they can continue as long as not more than 100 mona's are attending. but generally speaking, it's a, it's a pretty serious development and reflects the, the serious nature or the serious view that the government taking the situation. now it's largely the delta variant that seems to be present there. is that correct? why are authorities so worried about the bill? to their end, well, the state government have taken, you know, what's really affiliate draconian action, because because they fear that every chance of the delta strain of the bars spreading uncontrollably around the city. the new south health minister said today
12:08 pm
that this variance is already moving around the community faster than anyone could have imagined. and there are very real fear more cases, many more cases could emerge in the coming days. so it seems that sydney side of the get the message pretty quickly today, rose were practically due the traffic, the pedestrians were more absent completely from the city of radio. it has to be here, have been really fortunate since this pandemic began. partly because it's an island of the far end of the world, but also because the government closing international board march and all returning australia, citizens had to undergo 2 weeks mandatory quarantine hotel. so was trying to escape the full brunt of the pandemic. but risk worried about it talking? no. what about vaccination, roger? i mean, the vaccination roll out got off to a slow st dot. how all that information is coming along now?
12:09 pm
yeah, well the, the vaccination roller is still pretty slow. it has to be said. the latest figures are about 5 percent of the population of any one jet. and that's partly because of the shortage of supplies. the, the government didn't order enough to begin with. and then the vaccine hesitancy a lot of the next notions at the moment. or i was in a good people, worried about blood clots that associated with yesterday. was also that a lot of people deciding that, like they won't take that yet. now the way to surprise a group arrived in integrated quantity and have the jam then. so there's a little hesitancy, and that's one reason why the vaccination goal of hasn't happened as quickly as there might have done me more on the cost of this lockdown is expected to be at least 2000000000 dollars. and if the outbreak continues, then the lockdown could be extended well beyond that. all right, roger, thank you very much. roger may non journalist in sydney

12:19 pm
the law people and i thought that above the by side of believe maybe get maybe getting them for you know, the talk you know, there are a lot of over workers from the philippines going to other countries because they can earn more there than they could in the philippines. so even though their salary compared to the global standards is really low, even overseas, they can send it back to the philippines. the
12:20 pm
uses that they pay really high fee just to remove the money to their families at home. where currency comes in tend to become in already is that they can send back the money with their currency. their family can exchange it in pawnshops, where they, where they live and the fees are so much lower. and that is something that is already happening today. and that is just going to develop and improve. i believe the average amount that the filipinos in the home is $200.00. they'll be $20.00 out of that to get that money for their family. you
12:21 pm
because it's really a decentralized financial system. doesn't need a government. it doesn't have central authority. it's interoperable. it's global, it's borderless. basically, it's an option for people who are excluded from the existing system where people could send money from anywhere in the world can just using bit. yes. so a normal overseas for worker wouldn't know how to use going and you know, that was one of the 1st challenges we had. and what we did was we partnered with similar services based in canada or south korea or hong kong or singapore. and what
12:22 pm
they did was they provided the 1st mile for communities for being a communities that have been overseas workers. they will just basically advertise a cheaper, faster way to send money to the philippines, making the bit going by invisible. so using bit by an, as a platform, we're able to provide a service where you could just easily sign up, make an account, putting the amount you want to put in, put in the pickup option delivery option. and then i choose the pawn shop and it's done like i've sent money basically $20.00 from anywhere in the world through the philippines. and i can go downstairs from the font shops, pick it up. soon as i get this text message or email,
12:23 pm
philippines, there's 50000000 people younger than that are 24 below. and they are tech savvy. they're not afraid of technology. they're not afraid of the initial world. they kind of don't trust the banks. it's kind of like brewing, like we say, like a perfect store for this kind of technology that they hold the point was and it be used for fraudulent activity for stake, investment scheme for ponzi schemes and just for scans because it was easy for the people there was the hype, there is excitement, not a lot of knowledge, but hope of being put into it. so it doesn't only attract good people, it attracts bad people as well. that them can make
12:24 pm
a lot of money out of that. that is not, you know, that it's just a very small part of the space that doesn't reflect this, this technology and what the technology can do. the way that stuck to work as opposed to a centralized system is that the information data and control is not in the hand of a centralized entity, but it's distributed and called a long nose all over these nodes are handled independently and anybody that has enough computing power series could run a node, meaning anybody could take part in the process of their assign transactions building block chain to oh,
12:25 pm
this is where the big difference. nice because the par and the control is given back to the people i the plastic bank has launched a block chain based banking application for the poor, an opportunity to use plastic as money, individual collectors that would otherwise sell to a middleman who then sells to another middleman and remove the middleman, and then we transport directly from the hands of the collector to the recycler, all of the extra value that was going to all those middleman are now shared amongst a collector there's a powerful roadmap ahead of the plastic bank and the applications including financial
12:26 pm
inclusion, credit rating that service. and the app in this community is used not just registered the collector, not just to give a sense of identity, but to give it transaction history. to give the collector an opportunity to have authentic value exchanged into their account. it allows her to have a savings account that allows her to be free of cash. how powerful to look into a bank account now and see that you actually have value. our mobile homepage ration is over 100 percent. one of the fastest growing in the
12:27 pm
world instead of making people go to the bank, let's just put banking into their hands. now the bank, so do you need the bank quite putting the bank in the flexible it's so much more accessible. i want everybody to, to benefit and by connecting our app to the existing systems, you know, it makes it, it makes that transition easier. makes people adopting that because they're using these kinds of apps. you know, not that scary. and eventually the goal would be like if the apps are really useful and if they work, then you don't need to convince people. think you're working, you're doing the pioneer work there. because you're may be struggling with the
12:28 pm
image that locks into cooper kinds the is this is rep because kind of thing that endangers traditional distances. so are you doing by working together instead of working again, i think you're doing very important i believe block chain technology will fundamentally change the way our society works in the long run. it will enable new processes. we can't think of right now, but the option is there. what i can do is it can include people, it can narrow down the gap between rich and poor. ah ah,
12:29 pm
