on the world we're all about a story that matter to you. the police and i the we are here is actually on fire. home mines the news a show coming up today, building up to an important antenna re celebrations begin as a chinese communist party pastor mark it's 100 anniversary. in today's time, we look at paintings efforts to send the message of confidence to the world. and we are how its own citizens feel about the old party. and the tragedy of drug addiction,

enough gun is done. and why one woman's campaign to help the victims could be at risk. the news i'm british benji. welcome to did up the news asia. glad you could join us. chinese president, she g being has called and communist party members to follow marxist principles and lead the drive to make china and international power. his comments come 2 days ahead of celebrations, of the 100 year anniversary of the communist party celebrations. are already taken place, including a gal up performance at aging famous national stadium, also called the birth test. exhibitions about the communist bodies history are open, and other preparations are under way in central beijing. security is tight invasion and the run up to this week's celebrations. traffic has been shut

down. surveillance and security personnel numbers have been ramped up, but the streets decked out in touch real sick flower arrangements and national flags. people are being encouraged to capture the event on camera. flocking to a temporary 100th anniversary propaganda exhibition. it will seem to be having the desired effect. where do you on the communist party to stay in power for the next 100 years? yes, of course. why i think the party is very good, is enabled us ordinary people to achieve happiness in our lives. so it cons, attends july 1st celebration event, and shannon square in person. i still feel very honored when i think about it. i went to gentlemen square a few days ago and it was spectacular. it really made me feel excited to know if you don't gentlemen square the scene of a deadly government crackdown in 1989 is close to visitors this week. it's set to

host the centenary celebrations main event on july 1st. but celebrations already started with a bang. on monday evening. a lavish event, beijing's olympic stadium emphasized china's rise to economic and political prominence. and it was watched by thousands of spectators, all waving chinese national flags. on the same evening, several chinese cities stage light shows to mark the communist parties history. and on tuesday, chinese president asian paying awarded loyal party members with metals g loaded them to the selfless sacrifices in helping to achieve national independence and prosperity. and he called on all for a continued here and to marxism. let's get more of this from corresponding with his

building, which i've been now from bay doing that is it's very important milestone for the communist party, no doubt. but is it the same for chinese citizens as well? it's very hard to say how much chinese citizens really participate with interest in these celebrations. on the other hand, there's also no way to evade the whole city is under a special regime. during the celebration, metro lines or stations have been closed. the roads are close to carry the delegates to participate in the celebration from one place to another. in the past year, i would say that the communist party might have made some gains and public opinion due to their response to covey. people have at least seen that many things are not as bright outside of china as they used to seem. but most of the time,

people keep their opinions to themselves. people have used to live with a party that does not allow descent. and they have found their ways to deal with it or do give us a sense of the place of the communist party has in ordinary chinese life. for instance, if you want to have career growth in your chosen profession, does it have to be a party member? if you choose a public korea, if you are work in state or enterprises, it definitely helps on this and kennedy anniversary mathias. what is the message that the communist party is trying to send out to citizens and to the world in general? confidence, confidence, and confidence. that is what the communist party uses as

a slogan often. and this is what they show. this celebration is of course, massive. it is pompous that is to show that the communist party is in control to show off its achievement. this is one of the things that sees him being has driven forward since he has come to power to make the communist party more visible, his producers have chosen to make the party more of an organisation that is very powerful in the backseat. but that does not show itself that visibly to the outside world. we can see this, for example, some examples the, the, the heads of the states in paying it, official title is chairman, which is a very communist in english, it's translated as president, and there are many examples, like the c jumping has reversed a lot of this trend and it makes the party many years,

but if any public discussion of the costs associated with it, such as tightening of government control, pushing of descent and human rights violations against minorities. for instance, it is increasingly difficult in china to criticize the communist party. a lot of the discussions that were possible just 10 years ago, for example, on social media that was also monitored at the time. but the phil had a little bit of leeway. a lot of this is not possible anymore. and just had of this anniversary, the communist party has tightened its grip on well known dissidence. many of them have had, have had visits from the police, have been invited to the police and have been prevented to speaking. for example, to foreign media. there is of course, reason for suspicion that the communist party is not as confident as it seems to be

but is a building or in beijing. thank you very much for that insights. and on thursday we'll be looking in detail of the 100 anniversary of the chinese communist party. so do join us for that on the w news. a sham turning to of con is done now where continued conflict, political instability and a lack of economic opportunities have contributed to a growing drugs. problem. latest figures show, well over 10 percent of the population use drugs and that the numbers of female and child drug addict is increasing. i've gone less than la had already has been fighting to help drug addicts in the capital for 10 years without government or international funding. now that international troops are leaving land. i had already fears for the future of a rehabilitation facility who told me earrings and because on atlanta hi diary is on her way to mother camp. it is one of the few privately run addiction facilities and caboodle. her diary founded another camp on her way. she passes by

poly, sucked her bridge, where many drug addicts live a lima that i'm up with. but other, and we'll talk when i saw the bridge for the 1st time, it was like looking straight into hell. i thought this is what hell looks like. i remember people were lying on the ground like animals were dying and they could have had promising life become doctors maybe have sat there with that. how much it was another shock install for head diary. she hadn't seen her brother for a long time and found out that he was living under the bridge. high diary decided to take action. she wanted to help her brother and many other addicts, and caboodle almost every one in the city of 4 and a half 1000000. know someone whose life has been destroyed by drugs rehabilitation center is located in western could boil,

is dead. her son was once an addict himself. for 30 years he suffered from harry and tendency, but with high diaries help, he managed to kick the habit. now he manages the center in her absence. meet is not an addict. he has been here ever since high diary found him as a young child in a garbage can on the side of the street most likely abandoned by his family. and when he went to do both patients stay here for about 4 weeks. there is a lack of closely medicines to withdrawal symptoms, so patients usually have to make due with cold showers. we also have a lot of talks and music sessions. the high diary also has in mind to 10 after the rehab. she also runs the restaurant, taj, big room. all employees are recovered addicts, the work helps them lead drug free lives and brings new perspectives. mohammed

hussain is one of those who manage to turn his life around stuff. this is a special place for afghanistan. so we can feel pretty safe here. i'm very happy to work in this place because here in the restaurant is just different. almost like a family that was wrong about the finance was included in some take offense to the venue. the restaurant received threats from extremists also because it is run by women. her diary has managed to build what she said out to build, but the situation and if ganeth tent is unstable, it was scrawl of international troops is under way and should be complete within the next few weeks. so but when her phone i was up and got her, i'm pretty pessimistic about the future. it seems hopelessly. could she key as my the only one who can look what's the future of the taliban that are,

that are radical muslims here and double? no, not the women was and d, as the mommy lane and future is uncertain, but at least for now layla hi diary knows what she is going to do. so part those with a drug addiction and couple for as long as possible and that's it. and others, of course more no website, dot com forward slash asia. believe me today with visuals from cambodia of a pet lion that was rescued from its owner by authorities off the lines, images went viral on tick tock, 18 month old dominion had been defined and v clawed so he could be kept as a pet in the capital comp, and he was trying to take him to an animal shelter and see tomorrow by the, the,

who's the site against the corona, virus pandemic. how has the rate of infection in developing? what does the latest research say? information and contact the corona virus. 19th special next on dw you feel worry to ask me to the host of the on the

grievance protocol. and to me is clear. we need to change solutions or out, but join me for a deep green transformation to me for the me the me, which drug help against covey 19, ah, the top goal for medical researchers around the world. we have already developed several effective vaccines, but a cure has not yet been. why is it so difficult? so far doctors have tried drugs that have already been used for other viral diseases, like h r v, bola, sars and influenza. sometimes they can help, but they are not. the breakthrough medical experts are hoping for. what we do know

is that how well a drug works depends above all on when it is administered. in the early stage when the virus enters the body and multiplies or a later face when the body reacts with inflammation and immune defenses. it's problematic because if you have a patient, you don't really know what to do. and everybody tries to this and they observe the patient and they did off the symptoms. but there is no stem that recommendation so far. hospitals around the world are gaining experience with covered 19 and they're gathering data. and the hope that it will soon be possible to do more than just protect healthy people with a vaccination. hello and welcome to air cove at $900.00 special and chris kolber, umbrella vaccination programs around the world are the strongest defense against the spread of the current of ours. but treating patients who have fallen ill has

been a lot more challenging. some doctors have used existing drugs against over 1900, but the medical evidence of effectiveness is often lack, not the possibility is to use antibodies. events to guy pharmaceuticals has applied for regulatory approval of a corona virus treatment, but combined to antibodies. it follows trials in japan. earlier i spoke to clemons ventnor head of the bobbing clinic in munich. and before we talked about the current treatment of cobra, $1000.00 cases, i asked them what it was like handling germany's 1st corona virus. patient almost one and a half years ago, patient 0 was without any excitement, so we just did what any doctor would have done. so the patient got a little bit oxygen, a little bit inhalation. not even a real infusion. so at this moment,

we just use supportive care and the best sense, but did not treat this patient is pacific way. actually the disease wind off by itself after a couple of weeks and looking at how you treat patients today with covered 19 infections. how is the change? i think we have made some progress based on the tries. we also participated. so the one thing is in the early phase of the code 19 disease. you can indirect by using direct f like run year. but we also have the neutralizing anti bodies, so spike directed antibodies like the famous rank of, to dawn from got it and in the later phase of the disease or 2nd week. and so further on the principle is to suppress the inflammation. so that's the reason

that's actually the, the prime time for steroids. the prime time for i, 6 antibodies took the little not for example. and there are new developments like james is f, and he bought it cetera, et cetera. so you see the material is broadened, but still some work to be done. not the queue for every patient at this point. now on that the antibody treatment a company in japan says and applied for regulatory approval for an anti body treatment. for cove in 1900 is this approach the most promising one i think and i make times you have to react in a very timely and quick mentor or so i think the approach that has been used in germany but also in the u. s. a. was more efficient, so we have access to the 70 bodies without an official labor because this will take

months and sometimes also year. so you but you don't have time to wait. so we're just using the got it. and without the label, we tell patients about this, but we have some data from tried that they can even reduce mortality. so that's the reason we're running to apply these new drugs now called patients have been treated with drugs for other viral diseases. what can we draw from that? actually we also do this in the 1st week, so typically the drug cetera. i mean that's the tried arrow in the 1st days of this been demick time. but actually we discarded the thrust because we learned very quickly that they have more side effects than effects. and when you're trained as

a physician or physician, also participating, they tried, you know, what you have to do. and so this is also the story. you know that we didn't use a drug any more, but sometimes you just take the stuff that's been at the bench if you don't have a lot of things to offer. and this is how it happened also in this pandemic. now, if the side effects outweigh the actual benefits, how far along are we then when it comes to developing a medical cure for covered 90, monsieur, the big ward for, for calling 19. i think we can help patients in a very early phase of the disease. the problem is when the patient comes to the emergency room after 2 or 3 weeks after symptom onset. so these are the real heavy cases. and sometimes even we are not able to help young people. i think this

is a long path to go. we have a lot, a lot of things about vaccination, but the medical treatment is still let's put this way under development and we and others, we are actively participating for this reason in clinical trials using new drugs for this disease. meanwhile, few are very old patients are being hospitalized. how does that change the work of the doctors working in the hospital in the 2nd and 3rd wave of the and make we had a lot of elderly patients, you know, offers. so the point was that we also had high vitality rate because many of these only ones 80, and the buck didn't want to go on the i see, you know, we have few patients, but the majority is quite young. so we do everything for them and,

but we have also a non copied way. let's put this way. we have 2 more patients to postpone surgery, etc. so it was still a lot of things to be done in the clinic and let's hope that the delta wave were not present of many young patients that we have to treat in the clinic in the i. c, u was claim as if he had one wish that would improve the treatment of cove. it patients . what would that wish be? which will be that there is the metric pill. so an agent that can be used by be infected peeper, before the disease really starts to, to make complication. so the, the pill, the anti covet pills that can be taken at home. this will be my wish for, for the future. infected patients with comic don t. let's see how long it takes until we have that pill clemons then ahead of the

swab in clinic in munich. thank you for your time. while research for a drug to help cover 900 patient continues, several vaccines have already been developed to prevent people from catching the current of ours. despite high effectiveness, people still have questions about the jap, like the following one for science correspondent derrick. oh, are there any ways to mitigate your chances of developing it through those is if you're vaccinated with astrazeneca. oh, i'm going to start this answer by saying something i've already said many times before, which is that both trials and hundreds of millions of recipients show the astrazeneca vaccine is highly effective that preventing future infection with coven 19. and the chances of developing the blood clots that have been associated with a back seen are extremely rare. the exact numbers are kind of hard to interpret.

but the european medicines agency says that over the course of both doses, about one recipient and 100000 developed the side effect. so it's a very uncommon occurrence that chance. it's so much smaller than the chance of a serious outcome if you can track over 19, certainly for older people, that there's a very clear benefit and getting the astrazeneca vaccine. because the vaccine induced thrombosis is so rare. we're still learning about it, but we think we figured out the mechanisms that cause it. and that, coupled with simple awareness, is now playing a big role in reducing the dangers for those who do develop the condition because it can be treated if doctors recognize it quickly. symptoms of it can include severe headaches or blurred vision, persistent pain, and an extremity or in the abdomen, shortness of breath,

or the development of unexplained bruising around the injection side and those symptoms usually occur between 4 and 30 days after vaccination. i couldn't find any advice about how to mitigate your chances of developing the rear side effect, which there's no surprise there since we're still unable to predict even who might be vulnerable. but being aware that if one bosis can occur and vigilant about how it presents that can go a long way towards helping you. if you turn out to be one of the very few people who are affected me other than damage has disrupted a lot of lives that has also shown some unusual examples of people help each other . get through. like in bangkok where the took took motorcycle taxi is a tie national symbol, but with our tourists. many drivers fear for the future to the rescue, hands of south korean pop star jessica show. they pay drivers to carry advertising

for latest music, helping them a little during the crisis. and of course, helping build bigger kate pop fan base. and tyler that's so show, thanks for watching. the news . the news, the news . the

the news . this is d w muse, life from south africa for the president, jacob zoom, a sentence to 15 months in jail. is found guilty of contempt for repeatedly refusing to appear before investigators. or corruption charges also on the program . if yoke has government declares, unilateral cease fire was torn to grow after 8 months of deadly fighting as rebels . regain control of the regents capital. europe's tourism sector takes another hit from kind of at 19 travelers, cut short trips to portugal, the delta variance titans. it's great. and an old football bible re about to get

another area. many fights england in the last 16 of europe in championships and friends of an expensive 40000 fact ah. until gale, welcome to the program. for was that african president, jacob zoom, has been sentenced to 15 months behind bars after being found guilty of contempt of court this assume and refused an earlier order to appear in front of a corruption panel investigating charges that he allowed the plunder of government coffers during his 9 year term and his own party forced him to stand down 3 years ago. straight to south africa, where we joined d. w correspondent, christine manuel in cape town. welcome christie. how have people been react into this story?

so i wouldn't be lying if i told you that there are people in this country celebrating today, this is being seen as a very day president obama used to be the president because he has evaded justice on so many occasions, according to some people who finally say 15 months jail sentence, a lot of people cannot believe that this is actually happening. i was looking at some twitter reaction people asking people to confirm is the real interest rate and happening because those would be the people want to present jacobs. and those who are see this as a very, very, to please say the prospects of demand that they not so much going to spend the next few months in jail. right. and so it's important to remember despite the corruption obligations swatting around in this jail time, is not for corruption, but for contempt of court. so people must be wondering if he will actually end up actually going to prison. and so as a stand,

the only way out of this for, for the president is up for the, for the president. me would be the current president, sort of comical, offered him upon a course. there was a whole conversation around that raging in this country or whether or not president of the do that. but that is the only way that we can potentially evade not having the constitutional court gave him 5 days to present himself to a police station. failing that, they have instructed the police minutes that the police commission to make sure that he is behind bars within 3 days. if he does not make it to a police station in the fight thing. by all indications, he's going to abide by that suite that, that he has decided to jail sentence in his whole province and wasn't in italy in guns that needs to get home said. and we expect that he's going to be turning himself in, in the coming days. some, some forces that are supposed to just say, look like the sunday or monday. so that's great. they seem to know that there were

people who had gathered about his house last night. people snipped outside your home, sit in pleasant, and it's all threatening anybody who would come to touch him to say, but listen heading look and see he's splits that's in speaking earlier as well and reactions to this. he is going to turn and it does look like that day that many people who would never come prison jacob's been going to prison really has come. sounds like it would be hard to understand the significance of this court decision . so people are point, this is gary day and let me just give you the context that this country has had many, a corruption scandal almost on a daily basis. you read about somebody and some of it being involved in some correctional. something in a country where people are really suffering and any sense that goes to ways really live in the print, for example. and they had been to the defense that the people in the morning and the people are about the middle of it. they can get away with anything. and so you

even heard it in the, as the judge, read out the ruling that they said they didn't get on the prism, jacob, to them and said, an example has to be made essentially the news, the front saying what was said that an example has to be made to show people that nobody is about the lord. that's certainly how this is being received. there are people who feel that now that this has happened, a minister, a cabinet office, or anybody sitting in government with access to public funds will think twice about getting involved in bribery and corruption. because now there is the sense that no one is above the law. that even if you are the president of the country with the kind of support that present jacobs has had and still continues to have 2 great degrees. nobody is above the law. and this is why this is being celebrated as a victory middle list, some people to do a prison and making self. but just that the rule of law has prevailed. that is what people are celebrating across the board in this country today. i thank you for that . so christine manuel in cape town to hope you're where the government has

declared to cease for after a months of deadly conflict in the t growing region. but rebels say they have now recaptured the regional capital mckayla. thousands of people have been killed since fighting broke out in november, and more than 2000000 displaced. the pain is everywhere. the thousands of lives lost. many others left fighting for them as to 1000000, displaced from their homes and living in whatever they can find and hundreds of thousands now faith via from in, with millions, more in need of food age. these are the scars from 8 months of fighting between ethiopian government soldiers and rebel forces in the t gray

region. on monday, the government appointed administration in chief grey cold for a cease fire before reportedly fleeing his father in the name of the 2 great and old. he's loving people. we ask the federal government for fire on humanitarian grounds in such a way that prevents further damage to that. it is possible for people to find the rest of the bible and become part of the solution. so that you got the e. c, a being government led by prime minister abbey ahmed, has agreed to the fees fire, but it appears the rebel tpl full t great people's liberation front has not. it says it's re taken the regional capital mckelly, which it control before ahmed came to power in 2018 as

cease fire is just what this region desperately needs. but no one is really sure if that's what it's really got straight to easy. ok then dw correspondent, the money i get, the glasgow is in sabbath. the welcome very, let's start with these rebel claims to have taken the regional capital mikaela. what are you hearing so after picking back to graze, regional capital and mckinley on tuesday at 2 grand forces have made several other advances. they've taken back other cities, especially in the north of the region such as shit it, where resident reportedly went out to the streets to celebrate. we're also hearing reports that green forces are advancing south of mckelly. and that if you can, troops are continuing to withdraw from federal places that you can government declared a unilateral cease fire on monday evening officially to allow farmers to work in

the field during the planting season. it's unclear, however, whether every trance holders who had been battling alongside any against the p l. f . since the beginning of the country are going to leave the to region. they've started to leave some cities such as and should i wish they had been controlling for a month. so we've been seeing a lot of movement in this tuesday in a major turning point for this conflict which has been going on for almost 8 months now. and people believe that this government, when they say that this sci fi is to help farmers well, the see fire comes as fighting, had intensified in the reading region over the past weeks. and to great sources say that they had recaptured several cities after launching a major military operation. the government, the government, and the other hand,

the thing the troops are withdrawing in order to allow military help to reach the populations in order to allow farmers during the planting season to plant the ceilings to plough their field. because there's been a lot of delays of for farmers because of the insecurity 1st degree type or there's been no sign that they will accept the fire. they want to continue fighting. they consider the retake of mckelly and of all these other places as a military victory, the spokesperson for the piano. get that sure that however separate agencies will be allowed to operate freely in the region. this have been a major issue because you were struggling to reach rural areas in grande, where there is widespread malnutrition. you end up saying that 350000 people are at risk of stem. and so it's unclear how the sci fi is going to be put in place. but if agencies, if the populations are able to move freely in the region,

then just means that the new events could improve the humanitarian situation in the region. this conflict is more than 8 months old. just reminds us what's at stake that integrate. yes. so into gray at the job and federal army is backed by the return army and was battling the piano to take away people's liberation from the former a ruling party. officially, the government saying that this operation is a law enforcement of operation after the attacks federal military bases in the region. but the conflict on the ground has shown that the civilians have really paid the prize for this conflict. there is no official deb pull, but thousands of people have been killed. more than 2000000 were displaced. there's been massive property damage. the w h show on tuesday reiterated a concern for disease outbreak such as a cholera or

a yellow fever. farmers were unable to plough their field, so really the civilian populations were the $1.00 to pay the main price of for this war, the international community had called for a fire and for negotiations for several months. so far, it's unclear whether that she's fired or needs to discussions. ok, thank you so much for that minute again. come ask an average of about we'll take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. foreign ministers from the g 20 major economist meeting face to face in italy for the 1st time in 2 years. gathering games is aiming for closer corporation on issues including vaccines and climate change. thought of western canada recorded the hottest de temperatures in the british columbia sword passed 46 degrees celsius for the south on the west coast. seattle registered, it's

a large part of our business comes from this sector. lots of those tourists come from germany, but with the delta corona virus, the various spreading in lisbon and the l. gov. germany has now classified portugal as a virus variant area, even though cases remain low in some places. they don't. if you look at payroll in austria, only certain regions were restricted, but now all of portugal is being held responsible. that doesn't make any sense. anybody traveling from portugal to germany must now quarantine for 2 weeks, including people who are fully vaccinated. monday was the last day to leave before the new rolls came into effect. i'm happy that we're going home today. it was just by chance that we booked for today, but we're on the safe side and won't have any problems getting back to germany. i think it's good that they've reacted in and people coming back have to quarantine for 2 weeks, but the down for variant will spread anyway. if you go out,

i was fewer holidaymakers will hit the tourism industry hot just when it was starting up again. but back at the deli jose brand category are also battling a resurgence of coven 19 mostly driven by the delta vantage. uganda has tightened lockdown restrictions, closing schools, imposing a night time curfew, binding or non essential travel. doctor's grappling shortages of vaccines and oxygen and some hospitals are running and i saw a space for new patients. great must see me is a covered 1900 survivor. every day he performs with.
