credit on we learned in this trade, people lean extreme around getting 200 people around the world. more than 300000000 people are seeking refuge. ask why? because no one should have to flee. make up your own mind. d. w. made for mines. ah, this is the www. is asia coming up to date, and you wave of strict locked downs hits china? do they make sense? the case numbers aren't exploding, which is why some chinese are taking to the streets, fed up with the states 0 covered strategy. it hurts livelihoods and economies far

beyond china. and it's taking the deaths of dozens of children for indonesia to question how the country regulates medication. how did contaminated cough syrup, make it on to pharmacy shelves? ah, i've been fizzling nice to have you along. videos have emerged from the tibetan capital, apparently showing public protests against corona bias restrictions. laza has been locked down for nearly 3 months. under china, 0 cove policy videos shed on social media show. hundreds of people said to be mostly han chinese migrant workers, demanding they be allowed to return home. they believe to be the biggest demonstrations in laza since 2008 and protests against state repression were violently subdued. besides lhasa and many other cities, there is

a lockdown for hundreds of thousands of people in blue hon, where the buyers 1st broke out. neighborhoods have been sealed up in gong jaw. there is mandatory testing and parts of shanghai residents have to wait at home for result covered restrictions effect $200000000.00 chinese right now despite a relatively low rate of new infections. the past few days, china has been reporting over a 1000 new daddy cases. nation wide major corresponded fabi and crouch. my can tell us more fabi and 1st of all, what's going on in last that what have you been seeing or hearing? yes, this is the 1st public protest lover since a 2008 videos on social media show that there's a large number of migrant workers gathering in the st. demonstrating. and the majority actually seems to be a hand chinese and mentoring speakers. however, also some local tibetans are joining in and am the,

the demonstration seems to be about the covered rules and we have to know that m t bed basically was in bed put under locked on in early august. and especially in the 1st weeks of that locked on, the situation was really awful. there were a lot of cries for help because people didn't have enough food. and m an hour hour later on, it seems to have relaxed a little. i mean, the numbers also went down the number of infections, but s those images show them though the of rudy harsh cobra roots are still disrupting the life of the people and some of those migrant workers seems to have stranded and laza unable to leave. yeah, well but people are extremely frustrated. i'm sure about the conditions. let's just have a listening to what some beijing residence had to say about these locked out. thinking of course i'm worried. i've been impacted by it. i've been quarantined twice this year. i'm free to go out and have dinner with friends because it may affect my work that i can do on that. they tell me,

especially as we are originally from another city, we rent and sharing apartment in beijing, sometimes it's nerve wracking once. there's the case somewhere, then you become a close contact. you've got to be in quarantine. i've been through to quarantines. fabi on just how bad have some chinese had edge on the global scale of locked out were i think china to my knowledge, esteem, only country that out to date imposes such strict locked down. so locked on, he and china means you cannot leave your flat. sometimes for weeks, even months and, and i mean he and beijing or shanghai if they're so locked on the logistics usually work. but now we see those lock downs expanding to many other parts of the country, especially in the northwest. it is economically not so developed. we see really horrible situations off, for example, in lunch or that's the provincial capital of cancer. and people having to karen teen in a public toilets and in outdoor car parks because they don't have the you know,

more resources to pull off this look, get logistical challenge of a city wide locked on. and yet many people are frustrated fed up mostly, of course, the people who are directly affected by the covered rules. and by that i mean that you know, either you are under locked down or your business, for example, has gone bankrupt because of the cobit rules. however, let me just quickly at am. if you are not directly affected, it's really very easy to be ignorant because the state media will not report about the, you know, negative effects of the locked downs and even on social media. and that censorship will delete a lot of those critical videos that we've been searing the scene. so through the rules make sense, do you agree with the general view that of people's livelihoods there? that economic growth is also being sacrifice for ideology driven policies under president. she's new leadership team. yeah, i guess you could argue like this and also the markets are reacting strongly. again

. we've been seeing a stalks. i'm, you know, going down in shanghai in hong kong. and if i see basically 2 reasons for that, 1st seating ping has made more than clear that the country will stick to a 0 covert. and i mean that's, you know, economically very disrupting. and secondly, his new leadership team and it's really very or ideologically driven, the basically the people who are very loyal to teaching ping this, their main equality, the qualification. and just recently in their 1st public appearance, teaching ping and the new standing committee went to again. and it's the, you know, former revolutionary base of mild the dung. so it was video, the 1st public appearance, all about ideology ideology. and that's not really the signal that you want to hear right now, especially as someone who's running a business in china, i mean economic growth. it doesn't seem to be the 1st priority right now and fabi and as far as business goes, this is going to drag on growth, not just in china, but across the region across asia and across the world. of

course, yeah, i mean right now folks, i'm a china for the 1st time in 3 decades is dragging down asia. it's them growing less than the average of the continent. and i'm gonna give you one example right now m jo jo, the provincial capital of hernandez, and i looked on and there's the, the one of the major effect, theresa folks on the biggest supplier for i fonts. i mean, it basically china's manufacturing for the world and if you know that the manufacturing in china is interrupted, of course, it will have global effects. and that's what we've been seeing, basically since the whole of a 2022. and it's ongoing in beijing journalist, fairly encroachment. thank you ah, giving your kid cough syrup only to slowly poison them in indonesia, dozens of children have died from acute kidney injury this year. the government's

imposing a ban on the sale and prescription of all syrup based medications. while authorities investigate the sudden spiking cases together with experts from the world health organization. it's the indonesian way of saying rest in peace. china lost her baby daughter only weeks ago. she is one of over 150 children in, in, in asia who died of acute kidney injury. the 9 month old baby was prescribed to parsa thomas europe by a public health clinic to treat her cough. but soon after that sha quina could no longer you're in it that a more i t laura, it is white, the dialysis her help was declined. she was put on frankly, later, but her pulse was getting weak. i saw on friday at 4 am at dawn. greener passed away. i was shocked in the beginning, she only had a cold. how did i got to this in just a matter of weeks? lashonique, whom i'm the likely cause of death is a tainted cough. syrup,

indonesia, food and drug monitoring agency at the a says they found unacceptable. amounts of little chemicals normally used in the production of pains. in the medicine, the syrup has since been bent from pharmacies across the country and the f, the ace considering launching criminal actions against still in an asian pharmaceutical firms. the debate, however, who is to be held responsible has only started, but our son adore colored in, but you see sta had effectively carried out regular inspections. they should have detected these tainted products. they should have realized that they don't meet the standards. that is the big question here. why is the left test on after there are no m to none? recall that infection, gun port and pump company gunman publish the number of unreported cases is likely to increase the death toll further. the indonesian police has established a special team to investigate the tragic strength of death. most of them involving children under 5. i will always,

i am one day in there. they're gonna learn something. la gilder got to love shit cleaner. more so greener is no longer sick. you are happier in heaven haven't gain an angel. your mom is fine here. may shall kina rest in peace by caught sight or in assuming up up by a light bite. i yeah. long that ended the not only santa gina is just glad that now there's an antidote available for other children with symptoms who are yet to be diagnosed. thousands of syrup bottles are still kept in household across in anesha sharon, my grades were long filed that report for us and joins is now from dakota. who is at fault for the deaths of so many children. yeah, been the indonesian consumers foundation and they point finger to the f. d. a of indonesia. but at same time the ideal to points finger to pharmaceutical companies who could have been delivered um, rama,

till years down painted. but right now the investigations are ongoing. the government already form a task force with the police and other experts as well. how long would you say that these poisonings, these, these deaths have been going on for? yeah, this is, this has been a huge concern for parents in indonesia because they're afraid that their children might get poisoned already. and since september there's been a massive spike of cases until october and recently ah, the update is there $269.00 cases with $157.00 death cases. so the fatality or the chance for patients to, you know, to die is high. and the numbers are predicted to, you know, even higher because of the under reporting. so what measures are being taken to prevent further deaths? yet the government has banned a few medicines. they have released the names of them and who contains toxic

chemicals. and also, besides that, we have received an antidote to treat the acute injury or the acute kidney injury patients. and we've received it from singapore and we're still waiting for more from japan. and the antidote that we have received. they've been entered, distributed to several cities across indonesia, and that's definitely good news. but what about the system itself? obviously, with all this finger pointing going on, something needs to change. yeah. show besides, you know, prevent, they are strengthening the supervision system and also monitoring system. i believe what needs to change is the willingness for institutions, whether it's the private institution or the government institution to be held accountable. because if there's a talk, a, you know, a shared responsibility, then at the end of the day,

no one wants to be responsible. and if everyone is washing their hands, ah, you know, what about the families of the victims who the men answers of who's responsible if this until this, you know, this kidney injury took their sons and daughters away from them. now the point they're shown margaritas, who were long reporting for us from jakarta. thank you very much. as thank you very much for joining us here on dw news asia, i'm ben fizzle in to you again say. 2 2 ah, great architecture is something you feel in your bones, your own architect, vanessa chin to rome once to turn houses and buildings into experiences.
