hong kong, assemble scuffle, those on there and less than safe job search the find. finish front of you. welcome to the the news. a sure glad you could join us. we'd begin in, in the traditional preference for boys over goes, particularly in the north of the country, has long been a problem. it's let to a skewed the sex ratio in favor of boys, primarily due to the deadly practice of terminating female fetus is also called female fetus. side of the state of how to ya. 9, the northwest old ways. one of the west defenders bought things are improving. one village in particular stands out as a shining example. female feet decide was common in b before but not anymore. women centric libraries seminars and female to feature side. and then you village council. the phone by women have helped,

or the gathering of a female village council because every insight into not doing so. you don't put you on the book here in the village of be before they help become commonplace. today, more than a 100 women assembled to discuss the issue of payment for decide, basing songs and recycle retreat in praise of female children to stand up from the crowd to share their personal stories. sonya had done the deed of the female counsel he met by though she's the oldest of the goods or symbols. these are still a few old and was never had the main one. we had mother was pressured by the family on adult, bought the 2nd c mutare the how do they do is he shame on her? but given both to, to goes, sonya 6 inspiration from them are those like, i know need some air in this campaign across putty on a got to pay. the women used to be

a female see to says using traditional methods with the help of elder women. and if that didn't work, they would go to the doctors. this was happening a loss until we decided to run this campaign against the practice. now it is finally come to an end. here be, is it not a bundle? we have the state of deanna was once known, but having the highest number of female pit decides, going to rudy significantly to india's 46000000, missing females or the last 50 years. but the people to village now stands out as an inspiration to have the police in india. here, no more female 50 says that bought it in the village center. the show kind of problem used to the breaking the book, but the be, be good. this thing and hand out sweets x that when one's only associated with the both of the boy literally. so did the, the mindset of the people is changing. now that girls have achieved so much into taking pass in every activity. these people have started to see things differently

. this is lead to a decline and female feet decide for jetta with an eye, but not heavy. they're outside the people village, the preference but sons still exists in many pops up to speed. so need job alon was the former village had before she helped found the female counsel dear and now works as an active us in the fight to stop female to decide to day. so let me, let me just do you mind visiting this house and then be a liberal age. he will often it advanced. they meet these elderly men to talk about the continuing preference, pardon me, the children say, but even was the biggest. instead i faces from people with a deep, deep debt to the mindset who believed that the family lenient on need on su sundays . we are able to persuade some of them that these views are outdated, but many can not be kind of into mind making the, at the coffee get all at the back of the council. so when you have the domain to

raise of you in this account, a few minutes, they decide what they have managed to in one village, the aiming to do and many more. but it will not be easy. fight in the face of such entrenched mindsets and from long distance talk to a nearby energy and activists from the in 0 saltisha jones is from the australian capital camera. and i know you're also from the state of how do you all know where my colleagues about reporting from? i mean, how have active is to being able to convince man in a deeply patriarchal society to allow goes to be bone or ice. i would say it's extremely difficult as i come from here on i've seen that the sex racial of me, of the most to muse has been around. it could be a few months to $1000.00 meals. and now it's improving. it's around

$900.00 or $920.00, but i want to majorly focused on the fact that there is an attitude among males and unfortunately also in a lot of females. that means a better boy's a preferred voice out of blessings, which i understand from my experience and working at the grassroots level that it is embedded in the culture. it comes from all kinds of norms, religion, and the society overall. so it's been a very difficult task to bring about a mindset change and bring about events and education related to fema for decide and how it is a scene that a crime. so how have some of the injury was being able to do it? i mean, you just mentioned that the sex ratio had improved. how did that improvement? however model, it may seem, how did that come about to um, i would see um, definitely because of the microscopic,

odd dross with level to change. uh there are a lot of and use if i talk about my own i and my sister be done and josiah. and for the last 12 years we have been uh, continuously looking around a few months to decide which began from my own journey. when i was not um, you know, background in the society because a lot of people around this society did not want a girl in the family. um, from that we understood that there is a need to work with the people with the local communities and hands of our organization with 401 into us. we have been you know, working for education and the wellness and bulk is c. so i believe that the us or the other organizations of, well so able have brought with people who have made them understand that how there could be a mindset shift and how they are believing in some kind of minutes. uh,

you know, but when they believed in the fall would dynamics of a male and female, how beyond make them understand about his rights, human rights and just equality. i think that has helped bringing about to change. and on the overall of the macro 11, i believe the policies, whether it's been some initiatives by the government or enforcement of noise. but i think there is huge school of improvement. i don't think we have enough improvement . and hence, me as inactive as i want to dedicate my life to uh, working against treatments for decide on to promote gender, the quality, you know, your doctor about your own experience. and then i think you're to funding to the fact that your mother faced the family pressure to a bolt when she was expecting you. that was about to decades back. do you think things are better now? will it continue to improve?

if you think they are better, i believe the scope of improvement it is going to happen when women take the lead. when i come from the society, there is a lot of control and file were both in the hands of me is it is because it is a bedrock with society, the decision makers, the bread on knows the people who are driving the home. so for our, the meals of the family. and if we, if the game, our, as women, we get educated, we get, you know, jobs and we access the opportunities. we wouldn't not be in the shop. uh, which is the shift. so cuz that because females are depending on meals for finances, for decisions the, i'm not able to even get out of the families or managers that are toxic or that are, you know, involving to the osmond and domestic widens. so there's a huge,

vicious oakland that we need to break and i think whether it is working at the local level. um, so it would be in jewels change makers uh, more organization or at the national level as i or my sister, we demanded from the prime minister that we need national commission for good shape . and we need more policies that you know, are related to health care of them. and i think part at every level is there is a change that is effectiveness of all of those policies. law enforcement, i think only then there would be scope of improvement. but i'm very optimistic and positive that there would be change as so we see now though it does graduate. yeah . not very often that i talk to another manager, but this is been an absolute pleasure. and i know thanks so much. thank you so much for having the pleasure. the. the hong kong is one of the well, the last remaining cities to use ben bull scaffolding in modern construction and

reading the bad scuffle. those past and bundle frames several stories high us to a common sites. the nickname spiders. my home congress with their fitness identity in the web like let us walk. high above hong kong sidewalks, so called spiders practiced their ancient profession. building scaffolding from bamboo. bamboo has many advantages over metal. it's cheaper, more flexible, and up to 6 times faster to work with. also, scaffold, there's don't need any special equipment, just nerves of steel and nylon ties to bind the poles together. most of the cities construction was built with bamboo scaffolding, even some of its tallest skyscrapers horizontal poles, the code here, and vertical ones, chum, the names of thousands of years old can key. whew is

a trainer at hong kong construction industry council. he worked in construction for almost 30 years. now he's passing on his knowledge to the next generation of spiders. which polls to use, how to tie good knox. and most importantly, how to keep from falling when you're high above the street. the model that pops upon hi ma'am, who was a fascinating field to find something that could be built in the most on thinkable places and, and the most beautiful weiss, i'm the day fall. he thought that gone, gone like 10 bu scaffolding is challenging. how do you make them? but if you ask me if it's something was being proud of that was my answer is definitely i go, son, don't think that the end. it's definitely worth preserving. pretty certain things like that, but i would, i go home, don't laugh. but there's a reason most builders outside of hong kong have stopped using van moved, despite its low cost safety. a 2004 study from the cities polytechnic university said workers were more likely to get tired or nervous on bamboo scaffolds. and that

middle platforms were much safer. the so near hard to work in this field, you have to be brave. you have to have a daring hot. you. you also have to be aware of safety. because you are working high up in the law at the end of the day. the spider trainees know they're entering a risky profession. and despite its hazards, bamboo scaffolding looks like it will be a part of hong kong for the foreseeable future. a cut does it for today. it is more websites printed tomorrow, the by the letters to us. that's why we listen to their stories
