up new research reveals how much europe has spent to survive. the energy crisis will all come. countries afford the bills here. tugging up the hard string has growing competition in australia. harbours is putting a family business with go hello. this is d w business. okay. ferguson. thanks for joining me. it's now almost a week since a devastating earthquake head to turkey and syria. as many as 50000 people may have perished, millions more are homeless and struggling to survive amid the ruins of their former homes. that eviction to infrastructure on trade has of course, been significant to let's take a look at the situation in turkey in particular, and the energy sector and the b t see pipeline the transports oil from other by john on conflicts on to j. hon on turkey, mediterranean coast, is out of auction off. the terminal was damaged in the quake. the disaster over the
5:46 pm
course and explosion at a gas pipeline near the city of car, a man morass, in southern turkey, leaving numerous provinces without their usual supplies. now, earlier i spoke to reporter acro mackie gee, who covers the turkish economy. i began by asking him how big an impact the pipeline closures are having there. well, the destruction is massive, but we have an update actually about to be to see pipeline that arrives in j home to be for for the, for the oil shipment out of turkey. we now know, i know that the damage has been repaired and the and the shipments are just zooming . currently. i believe that from last night, but the local instruction, low local infrastructure damage and thousands of houses and industries that cannot get got energy and power to operate and to heat basically. so the situation is
5:47 pm
still in turkey, but the pipeline will probably the back to normal in the coming days at a slow pace. ok, so there's a very small amount of promising news there. akram, but you know, turkey has this talk said introduced many, many years ago. and earthquake talks, it was supposed to shield people from the effects of disasters like this, particularly when it comes to building better quality homes. there's a lot of anger right now about where those funds have gone, isn't there yet? that's true. there is a lot of anger, there's a lot of discussion about it's the earthquake or quick text or how's into min housing from a system has been introduced after 999 the big earthquake and assembled 7.4 magnitude. and we know that almost $50000000000.00 i've been collected from taxpayers in turkey and all this time. but now what with the restoration of pen
5:48 pm
cities is part of turkey. and what we're witness is that no guidelines have been followed. now, nothing has been done basically, and how's the causes of lives are paying the price for that? and we see that all this, all those funds have been diverted into other rather popular investments like adult constructions or infrastructure renewables, but not, not for the next. so the scale really is absolutely devastating akram key g. thank you so much for that update on we do apologize for the low quality of that line now to some of the other global business stories making news. the japanese government is that now made cars who ada academic economists to lead the bank of japan alongside to mail deputies. it's a major flow to gender equality,
5:49 pm
advocates who'd hope to see a woman holds a top position for the 1st time in the bank. 140 year history with one of the government says it may sever ties with diamond joined to bears. if talk to renegotiate a sales feel, don't work out. if you are the terms of an agreement concerning the marketing of precious stones produced by the world's largest diamond producer that wanna in which the government on the beers hold a 5050. thank you're a bill to tackle the energy prices assigned to almost 800000000000 euros. according to research just say from a brutal think tank. germany is the largest overall splendor with luxembourg on denmark. the biggest per capita funded bill is on par with the $750000000000.00 euro covert 19 recovery funds.
5:50 pm
now for more in this, we can speak now to maria de massey's from the brougham institute. maria, this is a colossal bill. can you countries afford it? yes, because we've seen that the economy is if anything, are actually improving this year. so this has been a very good way of blocks, moderating the blow coming from the energy crisis. there are big differences between the countries in terms of how much money they have invested, ranging from 9 percent of the fee to some countries all the way down to close to 0 . very small amounts. on average, we'll see about 3 percent, 4 percent of g d p funds that have gone to either support consumers and paying the energy bills or giving money to company so they can stain their employment levels and up to the production levels. he on, on not germany is holding the biggest portion of this bill. is this largely down to its bigger lines on russian golf or is there anything else to play here? let's try the model of the bigger 3 or 4 countries or above 7,
5:51 pm
percentage points of judy pain and help times to the to their economies, the respective economists. indeed, the energy dependence in russia and the energy mix in the, in each country's economy, has a very big role to play in terms of both of the impacts of economy and subsequently also the ability to try and moderate that impact germany had had one of the energy bill of energy mixes that actually was very much hit by the russian invasion of ukraine. but it also has the fiscal space to pick up the bill. and that is why germany is actually doing that. it actually can afford to and that's what he's doing. alright, it changing talk a little bit that you has just revised its growth forecasts off likely for this year from 0.8 to 0.9 percent. not a dramatic move maybe, but does that signal about inflation may finally be under control? well, the 2 things, one is gross, as you say, i think the overall overall impression is that the european economy has actually
5:52 pm
whether the energy crisis is better than we had originally anticipated. a lot has happened, of course is done by that is of course, good news. it comes primarily from the fact that the industry, but am i manufacturing industry has been remarkable in either finding other sources of energy or actually become more efficient all the way down to actually not seen very big reduction. seen the manufacturing industry. that is a great, a great thing that has happened and it has really help on the inflation side. on the other hand, says energy still is not really resolved, it's been tackled, but it's not resolved. and he still feeds through inflation. but we have actually seen that the energy component of inflation is coming down. and therefore, we can say that inflation has peaked, come under the component lation for which there is to be, can do something about, has not pix, actually something like this. it will have to be there. unfortunately, maria dimensions. thank you so much for your insights. much appreciated
5:53 pm
let's go to western australia, know where smaller talk operators are, fearing for their future. multi nationals interested in transporting resources like coal, iron, or, and minerals or spurring competition. harbors pricing, the smaller players, the waters. when you think of a tug boat, you probably think of a small boat helping out a much, much larger one. but in western australia, the little guys are now at risk of being capsized by the colossal competition. that's because western australia's energy and mining industries are booming and that's leading to more interest and competition from international players. a lot of these large companies like decline because they albright, across multiple ports in multiple countries, that it makes him stronger. personally, i don't think that's, that's the ideal solution. the mackenzie tugboat service has been in the family for 50 years. brook. mackenzie is the latest family member to join. the business is
5:54 pm
very new. female tug mouth is even though the marine industry, especially the tug industry, is very few women in i think i'm probably one of that be less than 10 in wy, i would say recently the mackenzie's last operating rights in the port has been very to mares going to companies vit sir, later this year, the contract operate here in the poor of s. bronze will be up the mackenzie, say if they don't get that contract, it could sink their business. one solution, invest in their tug fleet so they can haul bigger ships. it'll grow from 3 to 4 way when they 3 operational touch to the lodge type ships. but to buy another boat, the mackenzie's say they need financial help in order to navigate the rough seas ahead. if you've had to look for an apartment and a big city recently, you may be all too familiar with the problem of housing shortages. rapid urban zation has left authorities struggling to keep up with to month. materials aside

finding construction workers isn't always easy. time perhaps to enlist the help of a robo friend. this dog is only a prototype, but right now it's using a laser to scan this construction site. the label rover is documenting what has already been done, and whether any mistakes were made. the high tech device can cost as much as a mid range car, but it can quickly pay for itself if i've thought there have been significant advances in technology and on digital platforms before it was very difficult with tech to work any way on job sites. because it's typically unfamiliar territory, and there's little standardization as i have been externalities yet as here in switzerland, this robot is working on a scaffold. it has a particular skill, the necessary tact for welding. but also in our process,
5:56 pm
the robot pushes against the reinforcement to make a contact well, which means there's a force algorithm running here with load cells to apply material in a controlled way. and this marcial don't even control. you escape garnished it's not about being fast. are better than a human at all. it's simply the ability to ensure a free form. so you have more flexibility in terms of shaping of flexibility. 3rd tubs are a bit sucrose, after form gable. into by the rise robot is making its debut. it's taking over the world of elevator shaft filters and high rise buildings. the robot knows a lot include in which drill to use. the robot receives the configuration file, including programming and full that is specific to this elevator shaft. it has to recognize the dimensions and know how many horace to drill. despite its advantages,
5:57 pm
only a few have been sold so far. the construction industry, liens traditional and all over the world, it's difficult to innovate. it's a slow process, but it's still happening right now. but the robots are coming. more new mechanical helpers are on the way to the market. like this one for overhead drilling. while robots are making construction cheaper and faster, experts estimate that it will take at least another 10 years before they hit the mainstream. thanks so much for all think a ah, with
