an increasing number of women in latin america, i'm guessing better for needs to stop murdering and depressing a net fighting against sexism violence. and for i to 1st to abortion, pressure from the street has already proven successful, but opposition is on the rise pads off with my cheese dogs november 25th on d w. ah, oh, every morning here in cutter, camels are taken out for their daily exercise. the small gulf emerett on the north eastern coast of the arabian peninsula,

prizes its traditions. ah. these men are not categories. they come from oman or saudi arabia. up until the past 2 generations, the categories were themselves desert nomads. now their country is wealthy, and most guitars aren't willing to do jobs seen as more menial. during the 19 ninety's, katara rose to become one of the wealthiest countries in the world, thanks to its oil and gas reserves. in the last 30 years, it has developed faster than any other country on the planet. a glittering ultra modern world has emerged from the desert. katara is currently hosting one of the world's biggest and most prestigious sports events. the men soccer world cup, it generates record income and television rights and is a huge money spinner for fifo football's world governing body. the world cup final

is watched by a 1000000000 people that's more than 110th of the global population. the cornish is the waterfront promenade in the capital, doha. when i arrived here at the beginning of october, the count down for the world cup was already on. although the temperature was still around 40 degrees celsius. i found the hot, humid conditions difficult to cope with. but for the migrant workers charged with getting everything ready in and around doha. the conditions were now relatively pleasant. in the summer cut are sees temperatures of 50 degrees celsius or more. heat related accidents and illness are not uncommon. and can range from fainting to strokes. oregon failure and death following international pressure cutter

has taken action. in summer, laborers are no longer allowed to work outside during the hottest part of the day. limit knowledge in good climate. and in summer, before summer from a school. in some of your lives and also yes, working in some of it's really wants as or fair but is some other day the day monday duty didn't hop night hobby out it blah blah. where the o'clock you stop. nobody can yet know something. i know this on the fly, maybe weekends. yeah. since all of them, i don't know when he's dealt with buddy dinner. depend upon all of the planet. no. follow the money from doing postal davidson. no good. i mean, ah, barbara, 3 months have been to something other than that they will. besides, the highly display may be another to return. they come from poor countries like

india, pakistan or bangladesh. cutters. population is just under 3000000 of which 2 and a half 1000000 are migrant workers. that's almost 90 percent of the population. a world record. these laborers earn less than $28.00 euros a day. i face with money, i'm going to go to one another company. and you see every room with his others. yes . how many people in one room or 6 people? and how much is it for a well, how much, how much money i owe this on company. the company pay us the laws designed to protect labourers in the heat were recently expanded. the ban on outdoor work now goes from 10 am until 3 30 pm. katara is ready since 2010. when the golf state was controversially chosen to host the world

cup preparations here have been underway. 7 new stadiums were built. the loo sale stadium is the biggest seating 80000 people. it took 5 and a half years to build and cost nearly $700000000.00 euros. the world cup organizing committee has invited, well networked young people from around the world to serve as so called fan leaders . it's their job to help fans from their respective home countries arriving and cut our upon the, the program to a started from 2 years ago where civil good collecting, collecting the people from around the world. and that they start to give them integrated, bullshit public in one of the broad how they can book the media, what they want them to bring for got out the rest of the war. i have a friend of the i and save money to buy one car. i am working for 4 years, but i was been on the all of my money for this. i think it

the tories are especially proud of the 974 stadium. it was built out of recycled shipping containers in an odd to sustainability and innovation. it will host 6 group matches and one match in the round of 16. the modular design with containers and prefabricated sections, rather like lego pieces meant the stadium was relatively cheap and quick to build this venue is due to be dismantled straight after the world cup and the land used for other purposes. many are already questioning how building an entire stadium for just 7 matches can be described as sustainable the we're of air conditioning systems is audible everywhere. even in the fall,

with temperatures around 40 degrees celsius, the grass need special care. huge fans help to cool the air to improve growth, but this stadium has no outdoor ac. unlike the other venues that have to be kept cool all year round. mohammed al, at one is the stadiums, facility manager. he's a could tarry easily recognizable from the traditional clothing that all could tarry. men where we'll use 974 containers until told us why. even the name of the said him said in missouri, unfold, and the 2 presents and some national dialing called a thought as a sorry, but got those will coming. communication, i will come and get you on to join us in the 1st, a middle east and out of work up what will happen to the containers afterwards. we have the flexibility of the design to rebuild of us all to recycle most of the components. so those container cambia used to build the same

a stadium of the same combustion of the contribution of the world and cathedral different countries, the world do the same capacity as for to 1000 seats. or we can build a smaller venues with this model capacity. so we can both $20000.00 seat still venues and deformed locations. the world cup mascot marks the way to the next venue . the algae new stadium was designed by a rocky british female architect zahid. he took 5 years to build and cost almost 600000000 euros. we filmed workers on the glistening roof until an angry security guard ordered us to switch off our cameras. even though it's a public area, it was the 3rd time we'd been stopped by security and prevented from working german journalist and caught our analyst floating on boa knows all too well. what happens if western journalists try to report on things that caught our secret service deems

off limits? when he went to a district known as the industrial area, to film the conditions that millions of migrant workers are living in, he was arrested. is common on policy. the police, the military and the secret service, all came and they interrogated us for 14 hours instead of at or o'clock in the morning. we were released by the public prosecutor when we asked if we could leave the country that we were told no, not at the moment of his own. the public prosecutor even told us that he had no say in it any more so much. it was the secret service out there and if they don't want you to leave, then you won't get out. may only hold with us again. what's your tread been like this time? is it then f o n? yes, da, mac, luncheon doses, honey goals of silica don't get biting. cut, you can see the categories are very cautious, hasn't gob, they keep trying to caution us and even influence our reporting to a certain extent. emilita shuttle just to day we were in the industrial area again . no one we had har following on, which i've never experienced outside. he owns on this hobby. it was

a white 4 wheel drive, with acc, atari maddox. as emma vida, it's clear we were being monitored by the secret service i'm constantly building does is leave of a home. it sheds a bad light on the country. it's either at a time when it ought to be more open in to adams, high full. i think they should just say that we've tried to change a lot. in some areas we've been successful and others not the lumen abdullah sneezed and that's understandable is also via moodily. he's presently, i've never known a country to advance so quickly as cutter has in the past 12 years fought. and i think the guitars would do well to highlight that in their media campaign, in central standard eula. a finish cuts looks um, but he stuffs up the emir of katara timing. been hammered attorney and his father, the former a near ham. i'd been khalifa i. tony had led katara into the modern age, using the profits from oil and gas, and they haven't only focused on the economy. misstate own news network al jazeera

modeled on the b. b. c, has been something of a revolution for the arab world. it was the 1st arabic broadcaster to air not just ferment spokesman, but alternative views as well. the opening of western universities is also part of katara modernization plan. i've come to the renowned american georgetown university in doha. here i meet gad, none among a professor of international relations and golf studies. he's lived and worked here for more than a decade and as well acquainted with cutters. political vision, well staging, the world cup in the desert. that seems absurd to many. he says, for the categories, it makes perfect sense. the basic idea was always that this will break, going to bring visibility him a measure of soft power by persuading the world that

a cut out is little, just about camels and sound oil. but also the key aimed was that to make this part of their developmental strategy strategy for long term development. so the world cup was one of those things are fits in that strategy. so it's both question about visibility and you can look them economic development. that development is visible everywhere. areas that we're just desert, back in the 1980s, now boasts skyscrapers office towers and luxury hotels. the futuristic skyline has all developed in the last 30 years. society has also changed and not all categories are happy about it. some parts of society say says go very fast and there is some people have felt very uncomfortable with literally everything is changing to generations. but again, the top of the ruling family had been on the one hand very clear where they wanted to go, which is modernized without losing authenticity and identity. but on the other hand,

they've implemented it in ways that try to bring in the to, to bring in consensus. although some people are unhappy cutters in years have one over many with state benefits that are 2nd to none. category. citizens receive generous allowances and salaries, education, and excellent healthcare are all provided for free, and there are no taxes. i've arranged to meet maria again, the fan leader from argentina. she's lived in doha for 8 years and works for a company that helps south american businesses who are looking to gain a foothold and caught our. she says argentinians both here and back home are very excited about the world cup. right now we are over $6700.00 that we are and even hearing that. and we are expecting more about it more than $70000.00. will you said to the attend tina fence when they come over? first?

if they can read the v 30, they can be in touch with someone that is leaving here. it's nice to know if either by the quarter it's different or to our conser. of course, we have like a dress code here and got that on. you said cover your folder some neat, but it's not everywhere. if you see here we at that we are in the cornelia, you would see man or woman with shorts or without sleeves. and then, well, of course that go home that they will not be able to buy that go holdings for market, but they would, they can drink beer or any alcohol drink in bars or yeah, of buy or bumps. and even the fun songs in some of them it, they will find. so i think that would be fine and losing there could be problems with unmarried couples. no, he hadn't got that. no one ask you about anything. like if, if i want to go to, well, i'm not really, but if i want to go to a hotel, i'm book a room with a friend. i can do it, they will not. they will not request marriage certificate as where they woke up. i'm sure that they would not request. foreign tourists may not face such questions,

but it could tarry. woman certainly would sexual relations outside of marriage or band for women. if an unmarried woman gets pregnant, she will not only be ostracized, she's likely to end up in prison, and she can't access medical care either. if it goes to check on that pregnancy issues and so on, you have to be married. so that's true. that studies absent through and so that's problematic if you, if you deliver a baby and you have that again, you can be, if you aren't married. com show you're married, that you're in trouble. and these are things that are, that are problematic. and that stem really from a society that still in large part, pretty conservative about these kinds of moral gender questions and so on. and this is not just true flattery women, this is true for anybody. so that's why you have the, his, he stories about sometimes domestic stuff that has a relationship or whatever and,

and days that in trouble is not as if they're going to get to mistreated, but they will often be arrested and have to be detained. women are 2nd class citizens and carter and subject to their male relatives. they're not free to make decisions about their own lives. whether they want to marry, study, work or travel. they're dependent on the goodwill of their father, husband, or brother. but also limitations. official limitations on travel under a certain age. you have to have permission from a male figure of policy in the family. if you are a country, will you marry a non cassidy vann, your children old. they will not get all the benefits of a country citizenship, for instance. so whereas if you're a country baton, you might have for women and your children will have citizenship and all these things. so these are the sorts of things that, that you find a lot of young cut, only women out, then we'll just, young cotton agitating about public it's also

a subject of debate in education city, a vast campus linked by tram, that includes satellite institutes of renowned u s, french and british universities, 70 percent of the students in doha are women. unlike the men most wouldn't be allowed to study abroad. there's growing opposition here to the practice of mail guardianship over women. and the fact that katara men can still have 4 wives at the same time. the former amy or for example, has 3 wives and 27 children. but not a single katara. a woman was willing or perhaps allowed to speak to us on camera. ah, i've come to carter's national museum, which boasts impressive architecture. it takes visitors on a journey through the history of the small desert state. until the 19th thirty's,

the pearl trade was caught our biggest source of income. britain's queen elizabeth was later given a pearl necklace. when she visited katara, the decline of the pearl industry was followed by a period in the 1940s known as the years of hunger. but in the 1950s, katara began producing oil on a significant scale. then in the 1970s, the world's largest natural gas field was discovered most of it in carters territorial waters. and from the mid nineties cut her began selling liquefied natural gas all over the world. it was the income from that gas that financed katara unprecedented modernization drive. under the leadership of len emir, hama, been khalifa attorney. he was also the one in 2000. the 10 who saw caught her, awarded hosting rights for the world cup. his son,

the current amy or timing been hammered. attorney has continued his policies. but he came under pressure when rival arab states slapped a blockade on katara that lasted several years. don't mix up anybody over to the right one to safeguard that sovereignty cut are, has excelled in networking and become an international mediator. doha sheraton hotel has served repeatedly as a venue for talks between various warring parties from the u. s. to the taliban cutter has made its foreign policy as broad as possible. the strategy is, 1st of all, complete pragmatism. that is no ideological element to this. it's been a decision right from the beginning, from let's say, the early ninety's onwards. warnesha. hamid's the occult, the father, emerson is the father of the current that he had set out to secure, got us visibility and security are included, of course,

in the prime security guarantor. the united states whom they gave this huge abase and alluded abby's so they became very useful for the us who want one. they want to talk to iran very useful to the u. s. also, and they wanted to some place to connect to send messages to have ultimately conversations with the taliban. so cut out and responses as fine. they can come and set up an office here and you guys could meet each other. each week men flocked to the national grand mosque for friday prayers. the amy are also praise here, accessing the building via his own underground entrance. most categories are what hobbies, followers of a particularly conservative form of his law. both private groups and government organizations have provided lavish donations to promote conservative islam in other countries. also in europe, which has caused considerable tensions. but there is evidence that qatar is scaling

back its activities. ah, some of that money went not just to the most sensible and dodgy preachers but to basically gerardo types in the around the world. and so that the cutter is because the government clearly saw this is not something that they wanted. and they've been cracking down very hard on that with new laws and very stringent controls, to the extent that any, even any kind of very innocent charitable collection, you actually have to clear with a government trust. next i want to try out door, has new metro like many infrastructure projects. it was built as part of the preparations for the world cup. all the stations and trains have good air conditioning, a necessity and carter because of the heat. and because gasoline is dirt cheap here,

most categories go everywhere by car. public transport still needs to catch on more widely. metal on what other countries is a very new concept. in the gulf region, we plan on integrating the metal into the daily lives, all the residence halls, all the way. so it is a challenge, but i believe we all succeeded going forward. we have floods and we have implemented some funds to integrate all the all the residents as usual, another official is present during our interview whether to provide support or to monitor the conversation is unclear. we continue to get stopped regularly by police and security officials who question us, scan our passports and compare them with databases. the authorities here are very suspicious of journalists,

like every one arriving and caught our we were required to download a covert app on our cell phones at the airport. this means we can be tracked at all times and our phones monitored. building work is underway all over doha. what are owes a lot to migrant workers, many of whom are poorly paid and not well treated. but under international pressure . some things do appear to have improved this building houses, the office of the international labor organization in 2018 cut are opened its doors to the iowa and began cooperating with labor law experts. the ilo says reports that more than 6000 workers have died while building world cup. then use our false 6500 is total number of south asian nationals who died in car over a 10 year period. it doesn't distinguish between whether the, the work related death or non work related to it doesn't even distinguish between

people, workers or non economically active people. we commissioned our own work, our own people, work to collect data from different hospitals, emergency departments cetera, to come up, the more accurate figure on work related injuries and, and in that we saw that there were 50 work related death in 202500 6 severe injuries and 37000 mild and moderate injuries. safety standards have since improved. the ban on working in the heat has been expanded, and a minimum wage introduced the notorious casala program, which gave employers complete control over their workers has been scaled back. but these improvements are not being applied everywhere. the new laws need to be enforced. poor working conditions, harm carter's reputation, and limit further economic development to all the feelers on them. thus, i think those of us coming from the west can't even imagine what life is like for

many of the migrant workers here in the fortune they work. 12 hours a day in the heat. the orbits only live with 68 or 10 other workers in one room in the that is just 14 or 16 square meters in size. and dylan gust up on an item home, they worked 6 days a week ago, 12 hours a day, plus one hour travel there. and when our battle, i'm struck down the hall that doesn't leave much time for themselves should i spoke to him. but that's not only typical for cutter, hottest the same and other parts of the gulf and the world. and that should be reported on to them. but okay, other parts of the world aren't being allowed to host the world cup. if he saw them by dozens wines, so our katara residents actually interested in football mohammed from egypt heads a school here. unlike migrant workers and the low wage sector, qualified workers with a good salary can bring their wives and children to katara. i'm very excited. i'm waiting for all the ins a to come watch and enjoy. oh, so i'm waiting for my favorite theme basil. second theme france. i like this

michelle about azaleas are really good theme. are you like me? who in brazilian junior to venice use, when you deliver to you and live live. well, this is me for you. this liberal cup is for the 1st time posted by here is come for the 1st fireman out of all of them very exciting. a lie exists on thy sink and shall luck up out. she will make something amazing and we are waiting for this. all of us all are the one who are supporting cut back on the sea front. soccer also dominates the conversation. it's friday when workers have their day off. these young men all support south american teams. i do not even do that. i think there's a very good job missy. probably. i like missy. what is your favorite,

tim? martsen? dina, argentina, and i've india. all of your odds and tina, since you are, has it brazil for those who have to work even on friday, 5 pm is shift change. while some are arriving for work, others wait for buses that will take them back to their accommodation on the edge of the city. many have since left the country cutter decided to send them home to create space for hundreds of thousands of fans. but even here, there is no criticism of carter or the working conditions, perhaps because people are afraid of repercussions if they talk. one thing seems clear, cut or says it will not provide a compensation fund for the families of those who died on the construction sites. something many have called for as the sun goes down and the temperature becomes more bearable,

more categories can also be seen out and about at the bazaar. the women where the long black a buyer, while the men are dressed in white, this part of the market sells birds and other pets. even though the bazaar is newly built and just made to look old, it very much reflects traditional arab culture. many categories were planning to leave the city before the hordes of foreign fans descended. not all of them are happy about the mega event. and the western influence that goes with it. by this hundreds of the west, much is not right in katara. but some consider the tiny emeralds, a model of success by gulf region standards. the world cup has highlighted the struggle in the arab world to find a balance between tradition and modernity. between authoritarianism, human rights and a desire to play a role on the world stage. with

a pulse ah, the beginning of a story that moves us and takes us along for the ride. it's all about the perspective culture information. this is dw and d, w made from mines. this is sweet deal, the diabetes business, diabetes and lucrative disease affecting millions. the cost of treatment has risen tenfold in recent years. and this despite falling production costs

will a cure ever be found? in 75 minutes on dw. we've got some hot tips for your bucket list. ah, no magic corner check hot spot for food and some great cultural memorials to boot d w. travel off we go. ah, this is did you news? and these are our top stories. an earthquake on the main indonesian island of java has killed at least 162 people and injured hundreds more. the quaker caused massive destruction cracking roads and reducing homes and business.
