a nasty bitch mothers nightmare starts june 4th on d. w. nico is in germany to learn germ hello vinegar. why not learn with him? t w's e learning course glucose vague. with this is did other news asia coming up today? the thought yvonne's poppy dilemma to implement a bond or not to the opium producing plant generates cash for the taliban. and for a farmers. but now the taliban are cracking down on its cultivation, often going soft, just months before. why wouldn't gobbled for on, says plus should for delivery. the india be a matter of life and death. we look at the risks riders face as the race against the clock to deliver. take out.

ah. i'm british manager, welcome to d w. news asia. glad you could join us. the taliban had begun enforcing a ban on poppy cultivation. enough honest on this is a significant turn it on from april when the taliban told us that despite that official ban, they want enforcing it. listen to what a senior minister said at the time. good those you would have her. as you can see from our announcement, we said that for the moment we will not be taking action against pharmacy planted opium this year. if we do this and many farmers will suffer great problems, lisman was good and did a rush to luckily. and you and hear what he says now further in our report, but what he said about farmers suffering is correct. of grannis on is facing a drought and a worsening economic situation. and poppy cultivation pays upwards of $300.00

a month for those harvesting opium from puppies. opium also generate significant income for the thought bon and of lawn is done. nearly $3000000000.00 in 2021, which is between 6 percent to 11 percent of the country's g d p. but all this also contributes to the world's drug trade. and pressure is high, took herbert arm taliban fighters stand guard is attract her tears of the field of poppies in washer district. in southern hell, man, province, afghanistan's rulers issued an edict in early april, banning the cultivation of the poppy. the raw material required for opium, morphine and heroine production. now the campaign is beginning. afghans opium supplies over 80 percent of all users globally. the international community has been demanding more control of drug production since the taliban retook the country last year. this is only our supreme leader has strictly ordered the ban on

cultivating poppies. so those who are acting against his and continued to seed and cultivated would be arrested and tried. according to sharia laws in relevant courts should work you with them. for the farmers whose fields are being destroyed, it's a different story. they fear their livelihoods will be ruined at a time of growing poverty. which believe you're facing drives and don't have big farming fields. and so, seating and cultivating crops, other than the opium puppy doesn't earnest anything that we're not allowed to grow this crop, we won't earn anything lose of any kids. the new eradication campaign is mainly targeting those who planted their crops after the band was announced. others who planted earlier succeeded in harvesting, going from plant to plant slicing the poppies bulb than scooping up the sap that uses out the raw material for opium. what? but if you were not aware of any order to bind the cultivation of puppies and these poppy fields were seated before any order was issued,

were upset because our crop was ready for harvest before we became aware of the ban . but of, i'm gonna look it up, but i that the band comes, as afghanistan's economy has collapsed, cut off from international funding since the taliban take over. most of the population struggles to afford food. and the country has been suffering its worse drives in years. around 80 percent of livelihoods in afghanistan depend on agriculture. farmers are forced to ask themselves what can replace the opium poppy as a source of income? there is no easy answer. and let's get more on this from journalist ali love. if he were drawing dinner from cobbled with more alley, we had been speaking about this back in april when the thought of on said they wouldn't be enforcing therefore the van. but now it seems they, ah, what has changed? well, the way they had framed it is land for people who had already planted and they weren't going to get in their way of what they were trying to do is keep from new crops and

new harvests been planted. so this may be part of that saying that, you know, last year's crops will let them go when, you know, whatever happens with them happens with them. but we don't want any new crops. ah, that seems to be the only thing that makes sense at this point. as to why they're starting now. ah, and in that case it seems to follow through with what they've been saying about it . so what exactly are they're hoping to achieve by tracking down on poppy cultivation? is it really a motivation to try and cut down the amount of opium that is produced in afghanistan or that or other motivation, sir? i mean, i think there are several organizations, one thing, it's great p r, right? again, it's the one thing that they could, if they could actually accomplish it in something that they could do that the republic was unable to do, you know, the republic with all of its funding with all of its foreign backing for 20 years, was not able to eradicate the poppy cultivation, and if you're the tall bon, what you will say is one of the reasons. although the taliban definitely had

a hand in the drug trade enough on his side. but if you're the tall bon, what you'll say is, well, the former government was heavily involved in the drug trade. you know, you had m p 's, you had ministers, you had governors, you had police all kinds of different officials and people connected to the government who were accused of having an alleged hand in the drug trade. ah, so what they can say now is a, because we've gotten rid of the corruption, now we can enforce this and get rid of this. of course, again ignoring the fact that they themselves also had a hand in it over the last 20 years. ah. so comes down to good p r again. and it also could be something about their relationships with the neighbors, you know, because you know, on and practiced on both which they're very good with. even turkey, also a nation that they're very good with has complained a lot about drugs coming out of well honestly, now they don't talk about how their own drug mafias are involved in her, you know, making a possible. but it's another way of trying to bring assurance to regional neighbors that were taking an issue seriously. and that were able to crack down on this. so

it's a lot of good talking points for them. but following up with it is very, very difficult for the root of the problem remains unaddressed. does it? it doesn't, did i mean that there really isn't a viable, unprofitable, tentative right to poppy culture version and of gone a song for the thousands of, for farmers. right, and this isn't so, so there's a few things. one is that there is no viable alternative. i remember years ago at a u. s embassy event where the youth embassies, beasley threw up its hands and said, our drug war enough was on, didn't succeed. you know, they said that no list that crop can ever, no legal crop, can ever compete with an illegal product. and it's true. i'm on the one hand, you know that when something is illegal, you know that the market dictates the price in, in, in ridiculous sorts. of ways and, and very exorbitant ways. and then in terms of alternatives, you need to lay the groundwork for those alternatives and you need to have the markets and the support for it. so the former government, they tried pomegranate, they tried south for on, they tried aloe,

they are all sorts of things. but what was the problem was that they didn't have proper markets within the country to sell those products. and they also did now proper agreements with other countries to make sure that, that our products made it out and were sold into the world market. so you would have farmers who were harvesting and who were planting these different crops and, and plants and things like that. and vegetables, and yet they really didn't have anywhere to solid. and there was so much regional competition in these markets. so it really takes, you know, if you have to support that movement, you have to support that market. so if you want, if you want it to be pomegranate, then you have to make sure that avalon, a son's pomegranates are exported to the u. e that they're exported to turkey. that they're exported to other countries as well. um, and that they are properly sold within the country. that takes a lot of work that again the phone republic couldn't do or didn't want to do and, and either couldn't or didn't. and now you know the top on we'll have to try and do the same thing. because if you cancel your alternative product,

then you will go to the easiest thing. you know, the thing that you know, you will absolutely be able to sell no matter what road where you have to leave with her for the time being. but thank you so much for joining us today. on there's another patient cobbles, i get so much ah. in india you can order groceries or food online and be assured of doorstep delivery within 10 minutes. at least that's the official claim. a number of apps in the country or for the services, but they're contingent on thousands of delivery riders, navigating india's dangerous streets at the risk of life and limb, poorly paid, and at the mercy of customer ratings. india's delivery driver's face an impossible assignment. they got the news in the morning. their colleague has died. the 19 year old delivery rider had been on his way to a customer like everyone here he worked for the startup zip doe,

one of india's many new delivery services. regarding his name was cohen, a cock going as much as 120 kilometers per hour hit him from behind. his skull broke and his neck was fractured. he spent 2 days on the ventilator in the hospital, then he died. these young men worked for competitors. so motto ranch kumar is one of them. his employer, his shortened delivery times in big cities like delhi to 10 minutes. many more indians have been ordering things by app. since the start of the pandemic and more companies are joining the fray in the flight for market share, mid abode doesn't mean the company has given me 10 minutes to deliver. that is not enough time. the roads are bad, they're ret lights along the way. i'll be fine to fight. don't try follow the rules . but the audio la, la, la, la, la, la de la, got a guy that a customer has just placed an order with his bakery and signed the writer quickly

grabs it. as ranch kumar is leaving the shop, the customer calls him. he wants to know when the rider will get there. ah, my lady hung up about it. i know the spot of done my earlier believe be patient. i'll be there in 5 to 10 minutes. zoloft gabon monument to me the man is already waiting ye immaculate. i haven't had any problems, but if there's one we can complain, but we haven't had any problems yet. feel hurt. yeah, choppy, lot of us ranch kumar asked for a review on the so motto app. if the customer refuses roger who mark could run into trouble with other, those demonica customers can spoil my rating. if a customer doesn't give me a review, the company can lower my rating and i'll get less work out the middle that comes along. look there. he can't afford that. even though ranch kumar makes deliveries by motorcycle for as much as 13 hours a day, 7 days a week,

the money is never enough. he earns between $60.85 euros per week, and then he still have to cover his fuel costs. yes, just the mud they sometimes the customer paid cash for deliveries. then he got i spent the money on fuel alone but but in the end i have to transfer those funds back to the delivery service um a new quote with us. but a got a big as well, bank get on with the writer is morning there to these colleagues are also angry. they're expected to deliver super quickly. but the company has yet to make good, honest comments of accident insurance, let alone a health insurance policy. and that's it for to day. and remember, yesterday reported on shanghai re opening up the 2 months of a covered lockdown, but it wasn't for everybody a little over half a 1000000 resident still remaining locked down due to active cove cases. we thought we'd leave you today. with images of what that looks like. good,
