tokyo for context and why these fishermen in a southern indiana state are opposed to the construction of a port that being billed as a game changer for a deb ah . i british manager, welcome to the w news asia. glad you could join us japanese prime minister from yorkie. she does decision to hold a state funeral for former leader sheen's obey has led to opposition and protests abi japan's longest southern prime minister was assassinated in july and will be given a rare state funeral next week. critic said the decision has no legal basis and was taken by kisha for political reasons. protests against the state funeral father intensified after abi and the ruling parties. links to a controversial south korea based church became known. he has more on what's become

a growing political headache for the key she dar government. this is where a japanese man set himself on fire in tokyo. last week. he told police he tried to kill himself in protest against the plan's state. funeral form of prime minister sions. obey. abe's funeral has become a flash point for public anger, over political scandal, and opposition to obey success from the same posse. current prime minister through mucus sheeta. oh, i think ave was a terrible politician. and prime minister to shita said he would listen to the opinions of japanese people who are at home, but he is ignoring opinion. polls did show more than half of the public is against the state funeral. gail. sabrina, abe's assassination in july triggered a series of revelations about the current ruling liberal democratic parties,

links to the unification church. a religious movement regarded by some of the cult whose members are often known as moonies. no quarter. oh, i was so shocked to find out how deeply the unification church has been involved in japanese politics. this is very dangerous. i think we should not allow this to be happening for more info miracle. when our bay resigned 2 years ago, he was deeply unpopular after a series of scandals. but it was his close association with the church that was the alleged motive for his murder. his kill us as his own mother had been defrauded by the unification church leaving beth family destitute. lucy's company are based killing through a spotlight on the church. his deep connection to japan's ruling party, the l. d. p. prime minister, casita apologized and promised to sever his parties linked to the church,

but the full out for the l. d p. his government and him personally, has been hugely damaging gentlemen. they use a switch to call her if that more than this from jeff kingston. he's a professor of history at temple university in tokyo, and george now from the professor kingston. how widespread is the anger over this state funeral. i mean one person appears to have set himself on fire overt so i think it is emblematic of widespread ah anger about the decision by prime minister, a key sheeta to. busy hold a state funeral for our former prime minister ave. and clearly people are not persuaded by the reasons a key shita has given. and right now about twice as many japanese are opposed to the state funeral,

then are for it. so this 2 to one ratio and opposition has translated into a plunge, in case she does support ratings. so i think you know, he never ever anticipated such a strong backlash yell in the week after abe's brutal assassination. and there had been a lot of positive fawning media coverage in the public, you know, more or less 2 to one were in favor. so as flip flop sense n, just about her prime minister form you, can she go all this opposition is going to the steward funeral. why does it continued to start by the decision to have one? well, it's already been decided, so it would be a real loss of face to stand down and say, you know, i really miscalculated this. i thought this was going to be politically beneficial to me. i was going to curry favor with the hard liners in the l d p. aligned with

ave. and this would serve be an opportunity for the l. d. p. to bask in the reflected glory of the longest serving prime minister ever in japan. a sions obey. but what this under scores is that when op, a resigned 2 years ago, he was deeply unpopular and there was a cascade of scandals. and this led to an erosion of trust in him. and so his political legacy ah, is definitely questioned among the japanese. so you are essentially saying of various a situation and rich foreign minister from york, you should or could actually damage his own party by sticking to this decision. well, i mean, they've invited all the dignitaries. there's no turning back. you know,

once he announced a decision that was it, you know, and there is no reset button. but the problem is he didn't anticipate the media revelations about the extensive and deep ties of the moonies with the ruling l d p. so there has been a constant drumbeat revelations about how close insist systematic those ties are. and this has certainly reflected badly on key shita and the l d p. so he tried to hit the reset button by re shuffling his cabinet. but it turns out that most of the people who brought in also were implicated. i did want to come back to the unification church because her it keeps coming up and all explanation than you've also mentioned of number of times. what is it of other unification? church on stars will leave with the l. d p. what is the in political influence? it means and why is it so unpopular?

well, abe's grandfather was the one that sort of facilitate the entry of unification church into japan. back in the late sixty's. he was close to the reverend moon and so yet these family dynastic ties have reflected badly on our bay. and when people think of the moonies, they think of coerced donations from members and mass weddings. and so in general, in japan of the moonies do not have a very positive image. and it came as a huge surprise that an organization that many people regard as cult has such strong ties in the corridors of power. and so people are wondering like, what's going on? how could this be? so i think that there's already distrust of obey. and now his legacy is toxic

because of the dynastic ties with the moonies and public perceptions that the moonies are like a cult. and there been more than $30000.00 official complaints by former members of the unification church that they have been defrauded for a total of something like $800000000.00. so. ready people are paying attention and really this has really hit key shita badly enough to leave a verbal print so much from our determine. allison from jeff kingston and trumpet in resting took her ah, thousands of people from fishing communities in a southern indian state have been protesting the construction of a deep water port, the controversial 1000000000 dollar building project in video. jerome in the state of canada, started almost 7 years ago. the board is supposed to become

a young fisherman has been living with his family in this tiny cubicle for the last year or about when our house got damaged. i was sleeping on the beach for many days . my life. sometimes i slept in other people's houses around brandon, i'm in a great day. he's heading to fish in deeper waters as port construction has jesus of a fish from this area. but even here, he has no luck in the day i got nothing people, no fish at all. it's a bad day for me. i don't know how i'll feed my family. that c o up there is, and jim adonis group ceased thinks differently. he says the sport will boost the economy if this borderline operational, the so bring off efficiency to logistics, cost, and time. not only employment, misery portion will go to the prism and committee. so they will be the media been

if he city. but as the protest until the 5th week fishermen like jackson, i'm not convinced the young man. he says he will not you up even if it means fighting the countries that just man, i never did it and that's it. for this week. there is more from the region on our website, the devil dot com, forward slash h sharp, and as ever you can follow us on facebook and twitter back again at the same time on monday. and so you've been with us every day for us and for our planet. global ideas is on its way to bring you more conservation. how do
