season also on the show ukrainian refugees are searching for jobs across europe. some job markets have more to offer than others will visit croatia and ferdinand marco's junior takes office as president of the philippines. can he keep the country on its recovery track? and what about some of his more populous promises? oh, walk into the show. i'm seeing busy in berlin. it's good to have you with us. the german government says it will fast track the arrival of foreign workers to plug in staffing gaps that are ports of airports across the country. the workers mostly from turkey, will arrive on temporary contracts and be assigned to areas like baggage and check in. that's according to german ministers. on wednesday, the workers will not be used for security however, which has a lengthy vetting process. staff shortages have led to long lines and frustrated passengers at airports across europe. during the busy summer travel season. under a spade, as a journalist, and a long time reporter on the ation industry under,

as thanks for coming on the show. first, give us an overview of the situation facing european airports. how bad are things for those who haven't seen it 1st hand, things are pretty bad and things won't get much better anytime soon this, but everybody keeps saying, i talked to ruth tons of c o costs for only last week before he actually sent out this kind of letter of apology to his customers and he painted it pretty bleak picture. they said, okay, in a way we messed up and everybody messed up and it won't happen. that would be big changes, but before the end of the summer. so basically you have to get through the somehow that isn't his message in this isolated situation we're facing. all right, so somehow get through with the german government seems to believe that foreign workers, many of them turkish might be part of the solution. to what extent are they correct? how helpful will that be? i think the space is the pure political action isn't. it has no meaning in the immediate term. i mean, think of it, there's not

a bunch of felons of curve is work as standing by inter eager to go to germany tomorrow. if you would be waiting to do that. still, there will be a very complicated security screening process here in germany where it could take weeks a month. and there's also actually caused by the airlines to kind of simply find this, the security and ticket has to be done. background checks that have to be done before any workers could join engaged and the idea of the island and right to so i think to have a unified approach for this security hearing for all of europe. see if a target comes to germany and gets this clearance, you can watch and then go to problems other spain to work which will be helpful in order to prevent like double screening things. if they would kind of make ways within you to fill in for voids there you've touched on this a couple of times already, but to what extent are the airlines in airport themselves responsible for the staffing issues they're facing right now and to what extent things that are out of

their control such as corona. yeah, it's a bit hard to say because i think it's everybody's fault in some way. i mean hostage was enough to the see you im admitted to us that basically they on so didn't expect this and maybe misjudged it. because it has to bear in mind the 1st quarter, 2022. there was just 30 percent of the pre coven traffic. and right now we're seeing about 80 percent of the traffic being bad peak days, even 100 or above 100 percent versus 2019 and in germany alone. right now the number of work is missing is about 7200. and you just can't put these people back into work overnight. so it was a missed judgment. of course the airlines not knowing what would be happening and be very scarce of cash at the time. the government's had to build them out. actually sent these people away in with severe ins fees led to kind of get rid of them easily and now that's really kind of hitting them from the back side. all

right, that's journalist entourage. space is a long time reporter on the aviation industry address. thank you. thanks very much . unemployment in the euro zone remain steady in may at 6.6 percent in germany. meanwhile, there was a visible optic in its latest jobless figures due to ukrainian refugees. many of them are registering as job seekers pushing germany's unemployment rate up by less than half a percentage point to 5.3 percent and june. the countries federal labor office said the number of unemployed increase in the month by 133000 job markets across the you look quite different in croatia. there's an especially strong need for workers at the moment. that's why the arrival of ukrainians has been welcomed. summer, the sun and the scene here on the coast of history in croatia. the hospitality industry expect so record season this year. oh, lena cobia,

cova fled the war and ukraine. now she already has work as a waitress here, i guess. ah, that's people they ought to climb. they understand the situation binnacle nice on that to me from ukraine, even they help us even they see that i some scene of god for linda has been working here for a month and she's already learned some croatian 2 very important for all applause. sir la from ukraine because to week if have an opportunity to walk into and money and we are in, in a pace who plays the hotel is welcomed, ukrainian workers for years. it's been struggling to find staff situation has dramatically changed so, and it's changing rapidly, especially now industry. the few reasons for that. for some people from crecia

moved out to germany to ireland. ah, some people are definitely changed their probation. santa was forced to leave ukraine because of the war. she was the 1st to be housed here and carnita and helps other ukrainians look for work. a lot of people agreed do every scene because i don't want stay in the whole douglas and in general hospital and of course need to do something on. meanwhile, sonia has been fired as a refugee coordinator by the local authorities. senior. doesn't plan on staying here. she wants to return to her family and ukraine, so croatia might have to find other solutions to fill. it's skilled workers shortage over to southeast asia. now ferdinand marcus junior has taken office as president of the philippines, marking

a return of the country's most infamous family to its highest office. marco said in his inaugural dress that he wanted to talk about the future, not the past. for the country's economy, that means recovery from the pandemic. in the battle against inflation, his father turned the philippines into a dictatorship, where thousands were killed and tortured for opposing the government. billions disappeared from the state coffers. now federal and marco's junior, who's known as bon bung, has brought the controversial dynasty back into the highest office. max out the 64 year old who was elected president in may, will now be inaugurated when it was a clear victory with 58 percent of the vote. even though some accuse him of electoral fraud. thanks to a massive social media campaign, he succeeded in casting his father's era in a positive right. among many voters, especially very young ones. he's promised growth and prosperity. marcos is

inheriting a growing economy. the government expected to expand to 79 percent the here. but why the country may be emerging from the downturn caused by the covered 19 pandemic, filipinos are struggling amid rampant inflation. much like elsewhere, rising prices and energy shortages are wreaking havoc by cali, janelle de milan was in manila for the those elections. she now joins me in studio . janelle welcome. michael pushed them populous issues during this campaign, including talking about flashing the price of rice. at the same time, we've seen that with some of his appoint. she's, they've been talking more about paying down dead a continuing the grows, that doesn't sound very populous, which we make it us. well, his appointees have largely been technocrats that have experience in previous administration. so not just the therapist, but aquinos up before that they're there and they've been credited with economic growth, strengthening policies, as for the 3rd themself, the gains and reforms that we saw during his administration or thought having

a product of him hiring experts and then largely keeping his hands off the details and then we got to marcus himself. now you mentioned that thing he said about lowering the price of rice. he has since a walked back those comments. he said that's an aspiration. so that's not something that you and i can understand as it all over there was problematic from the beginning, especially for, for never going to work. but you know what, he's now made himself the secretary of agriculture. he has to put his money where his mouth is. he says he wants to set the philippines on a path to self sufficiency. how he's going to do that. we don't know exactly. he hasn't laid out concrete policy proposals. and that's going to be really important because of the stakes are high. as you said, inflation is high, the pesa was down for a country that is a net importer. although currency means that so many more things are unaffordable for ordinary filipinos. he talked about paying down debt. well, that leaves are less wiggle room and it comes to providing financial assistance to the neediest of filipinos. so we don't know whether marcos is the right man or to shop or the philippines throughout its economic recovery. but the needs remain

urgent regardless of whether or not he's up to the job. you mentioned his predecessor deter 2, how much does his legacy hang over over marco's? when talking about his policies or about his rights abuses? well that there the signature policy may be, let's start with that is called build, build build. so he wanted to usher in the golden age of infrastructure. we did not quite get that as we know, infrastructure is very hard to build. so among the $119.00 projects he had planned only about 18 or are considered a done or near done. but marcus is, are, is looking to continue these this policy, it's very popular. he partly ran on a continued e candidate platform in terms of china. his thought to, he's probably going to continue trying to woo chinese investment, but probably with more of an eye towards balancing what have become very unpopular pro china policies with the desire for more chinese money. but you've already started the therapist, legacy is complicated. you know, human rights rule of law,

these are the kinds of things that make investors nervous. make it look like the philippines is unstable and run by an erotic leader. so marcus has the opportunity to prove that he's not just an extension of the derek there or in his extension of his upto craddick and corrupt father. but he's not given a sign that that's what he wants to achieve. what are the business community? how do they look at this? marcos is going to empower the next 6 years where they expect, well, in the run up to the election. a lot of business theaters and economists actually supported land robledo. so marcus junior's nearest rival at the time. but if you look at how marcus got elected here, he got the countries richest and most powerful families to rally behind them. it's under covered. but marcus junior is beloved of billionaires. when he, when he won the election, he throw victory party with typhoons around them. in a luxury hotel, and it's uncomfortable when you think of his father's time in the era of cronyism that, that harold did. so, you know, our business leaders looking forward to marco's, i guess it depends on how close they are to him. but i am prepared to concede that

is a distressful reading of these affairs maroon my college. no, do alone on the integration of ford and marco's junior. that is it for our show, you can find out more about these and other business stories online, you know, be dot com slash business. check out. are you to channels? well under the dw news channel, i'm seeing beardley hidden here in berlin. janelle, do alone. my colleague, thanks for watching. ah ah ah, with
