[000:00:00;00] a whale sharks of the remote island of saint hold. mm hm. it is a testament to the home with one of them. any success stories from a bastion of biodiversity say don't starts november, 18th he w you're watching d, w news, asia coming up today. it's in ron con, against the government pakistan's, former prime minister is making a political dan bit challenging those in power, even an apparent assassination attempt has failed to deter him. and an ongoing crisis in the philippines,

as authorities tried to combat the online sexual exploitation of children plus extreme smog in delhi, even for residents use to air pollution. the past few weeks have been unbearable. ah, i melissa chan, thanks for joining us in injured but recovering imran con pakistan's ex prime minister plans to continue his protest march against the government on tuesday last week. a man shot con in an apparent assassination attempt, but failed injuring him in the leg. instead, he has accused the government of being behind the attack. blaming the current prime minister and the military apparatus con, said any investigation into the crime cannot be trusted. judicial commission

subsidy for job of the judicial commission must be the removal of the people who are accused in this case. and if an independent investigation is to take place, how can they remain in the post for more, we are joined by the w channel sham channel. can you give us a sense of just how the country is responding to this series of events? melissa, people are pretty red, and non supporters are angry and and they're accusing the ami army on our, against the army. i'm the are accusing the are you still there is a sense of dish of a box gone has been facing the political and since i was 6 months ago when he was wanted out to follow. and there has been

a huge economic crisis in the country as well. i'm just recently, massive, massive, last devastated country. so it's not just about the political situation at the mon, focused on is undergoing a huge pool or to greater moreland, economic crisis. people are feeling very, very educated and chris about all this it's going through very, very difficult. and so people are feeling vulnerable. they're feeling confused. and i wonder, to what extent cons accusations which are pretty serious to what extent they're sticking. are there any grounds? first of all, for believing that the current government had something to do with this assassination attempt, or is this populace information and propaganda, and he's capitalizing on that agitation you're talking about well, the problem is, the big problem is it is not just about gum. hahn is not blaming the

civilian government, only it is directly, he's directly lame. a military on 40 assess the nation again on has accused of government, military intelligence office and it is a very, very serious allegation without any so army the dog brought. why infuriated about very unhappy and angry about these accusations on has no proof so far, and he is just, but my opinion is, the constable does do not really care about any proven. because they see con as a messiah here. and they have been to the army as a villain, so proves no prove it doesn't matter. and the slogan to his claims and his politics is working at the war and so he says that this march will resume on

his day. what do you expect will happen? i expect more kiosk mer, acquisitions, encounter acquisition, some water boy will. he will in the country and ducks going to last for a while. and the thing is the main issue. the main concept is the appointment of the next army cheese, which will happen by the end of this month. so calm is trying to keep up the pressure on the military because he does not want the incumbent, brian, mr. geometry to appoint the new the next military chief. he wants to, he wants to have a stay in it because he does not want a new army cheap, which is not going to support him. how can come back to, wow, but in my opinion, it is not going to happen. it is not going to happen because on the, on the, to its limits. and the army generals are not going to help. and, and anyway,

they have decided to stay new crew as what they have been claiming so far. and i'm, i'm pretty sure that they are not going to do help on any more. very, very quickly i do citizens believe kind more. or is this really divided kind of 5050 on is extremely popular focused on is more popular than any other or dishes in the country. you know, to being on this, on this issue. if elections are taking place tomorrow long really been a majority. but the problem that on is that con does not believe in negotiating and talking to the opposition bodies, or the political parties. and pakistan is a very difficult country domestically. and if he's not going to talk to other people, he wants to have a court date in room. it is going to be ready with all country and the army knows

about shanahans. thank you so much. the online sexual exploitation of children is a global issue, but is particularly problematic in the philippines. a recent unicef report estimates that at least 2000000 children in the philippines have been targets of such abuse in the past year alone. this is a country where many people are on line more so than other places. and as an english speaking country perpetrators from a broad find accessing and manipulating children much easier. he w's garrick matters files. this report. the investigators make their move early in the morning. 3 civil tenures operations are conducted across the philippines. the target children forced into online prostitution for detective petroff, the national bureau of investigations. it's a good day. but he says it's just the tip of the iceberg. actually it's very alarming, especially for duffy b,

not children because they are being grouped one lane and it's very hard to identify and to prevent them from, from being explained because they, they are directly being communicated by the facility or a unit that report finds that defendant has made children in the philippines much more vulnerable to sexual abuse. according to the research, one in 5 children, aged between 12 and 17, was subjected to great instances of online sexual abuse. with classrooms largely empty for much of the pandemic. many children found themselves exploring the internet without guidance. thousands were not into sending photos, for instance, to online boyfriend, and then mailed to send more, says benedict madrid. the other thing also, which is very bad,

i don't know which is worse, is that a lot of incense offenders, especially for younger children. now also realize that they can make money out of the incest. and that the videotape and or live stream sexual abuse and, and sunday, according to madrid. many of these relatives tell themselves that if you use happens online, no one gets hurt. but for a child, she says it's just as damaging as in real life, every time somebody views, those child sexual abuse images, it's like they're being abused again. so it's a never ending abuse. if you think about it, that's what's so bad about because like you always are on the lookout that someone will recognize you. according to the unicef report,

the philippines, other global epicenter of the live stream, sexual abuse trait. a key concern is now that with travel regulations, almost back to normal, many pito files from abroad will come to meet their victims in person. detective pedro says that they are in close contact with foreign law enforcement partners. but keeping up with new apps and the dark web is a challenge. we really have to increase our capacity in aden defying um these types of offenses, especially the technical side of this investigation. experts agree that a nationwide information campaign is needed to warn children and to encourage them to come forward if affected to day. less than one percent of such cases in the philippines are reported to authorities. cop 27,
