new ink, probably european partners and not gonna want to build any some structure for not that they're going to need to affect the aid. that's the big sticking point at the moment. nick. okay. jack, parrot from brussels. thanks so much for that insight. you're watching dw news live from berlin. inexpensive. thanks for watching. the actually we don't have a choice that we have little time list to save the planet. so we have to do what we can as fast as possible. we only have one generation left. just 25 years to implement the greatest revolution since the tune of the industrial age . replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy around the world without exception is

a global energy to information really cost of the food as well. or is it for our 2 pa document trees, the renewables revenue jobs november 25th dw. do you love take talk, shop on table? do you own a while way or tell me phone? well, chinese companies like these have been accused of spying on the customers. never the less the products continue to be popular worldwide. and many governments deployed chinese tech to is tech made inside and no different than tech develop in other countries. especially risks for you as a consumer and for state security china efforts to become established as a big scale tech supply. a can be clearly seen in africa in some countries like

kenya, chinese technology even lies on the ground. an internet superhighway called the piece cable for next packaged on east africa and to europe. it is part of the digital civic route, china's band to expand its digital influence around the world. for years, china has been making deals with political leaders, especially in the global south to build small cities and install surveillance cameras. sometimes china even puts the bill. so how does this tech benefit citizens? the on the c p is cable, brings past them all by internet to can yeah, for example, where most people use cell phones to get online anyway. but where do these cellphones come from? i'm using, i need to with something 85. i use samsung on. i'm using a techno pop 3 more than 60 percent of the people we spoke to with nairobi, kenya use phones made by chinese companies. anthony a while ago uses 2 phones,

one for mobile money transfers and $1.00 for internet. this one is samsung galaxy at 10 s, and this one is a 10, according to multiple lunney pelt color researches chinese businesses in africa. this is exactly the market chinese mon makers. i've tried to capture average african probably be one to cellphones and does to cellphones one has the one is connected to say for example n t n, a network provider, one is connected to saves in another network provider. and because of them, let's say connectivity issues on a particular day, the network might be down on the same thing, but then he will walk on an empty ensign. so in that sense, it just fits the price point. a lot of washington's i looking for, i mean, it fits the needs of african american consumers, maybe muscles and you're more expensive product, like i said, for example,

phones with to sim cards or cameras that capture a wide range of skin towns had made chinese smartphones popular and can you, anthony, can hang up, who manages or phone repair center? i've seen the market change over time and no care with the 1st time in the country. then you meet with the people to the chinese funds, which gave me the touch screen. can we better comment on big screen sites and most the young people, especially after the fighting to go through the tiny strand because of price value . these phones used to be cheap alternatives, but now manufacturers are matching the quality of their competitors. but there are still significant ways that they can't compare is based on my experience, you use it for both tvs and then you start facing facing issues with optics of stuff. yeah. and issues of the changes and the fights are not available, but i think it's very affordable. most people prefer to go we,

they take off the via phone 3 as you dump it and you get another one. okay, that's not a very long lived span. still, chinese smartphones are popular and can yeah, because the affordable and tailored to the needs of african consumers. so what is china's aim? we spoke to kobus on starting research as chinese investments in africa for the south african institute of international affairs. they're looking for overseas markets and opportunities, but they're also looking for to, to, to act as a kind of a norm set to on the logic kind of like, you know, player in, in, in the world. so it's looking to, to make the rest of the world frame near to chinese companies for new to chinese stand of. so china's engagement around the world, fuels the tech economy, back home, the more time these technology sold overseas. the more the systems and processes become the norm, which in turn helps themselves even more products. it also means china plays

a powerful role in shaping the future of technology. the international institute for us to teach a study says china has been participating in digital infrastructure projects in the 137 countries. it's investing billions of urals. let's take a closer look at one example, a smart city in the making. just outside of nairobi, kenya is africa's vers plan smart city. it's called the console tech novelist, and it's been 10 years in the making. when cons that is done, it's supposed to look like this. uh, high tech always is outside of the urban hassle. while companies from countries like italy and south korea build apartments and schools, chinese companies take care of tech, the like this surveillance center built by chinese telecoms company. well, way it's connected to

a network of cameras. the data from the camera travels through underground internet cables to a data center, also built in part by wall way. the internet, the cameras and data storage are all connected, says lucas, oma lo, who manages kansas data center. we realize that in addition to connectivity level to the quit, we needed a place value with a computer type computer environment where all these different let them to collect themselves. ask whom come at us from this message would be host analyzed. some have res security concerns about working with well way, but also believes the team is prepared. if you focus on the vendor, then you missed the point. so we have good, continuous planning. why don't we go to a light that a of giddiness network executed a specialist while the primary invest bookcase really we're looking we have and i'd

just like us. so then i realize that it's hired a company that's a q a for as a cloud. we partner with microsoft, for example, being some of the sort of shows that, that, that might look at the u. s. company. so we don't limit this to where we can use cons, that isn't the only place storing sensitive information. and while way data centers, senegal agreed to migrate its government data from foreign servers to its own. while we build data center in 2021 and pakistan signed off on an agreement to get one as well in 2019 research remote elani pell to law says there's a reason countries take on these projects. china is financing it's of play to mitchell really like the dominance of bonds. trying these companies in, in fact, in africa. so technically, equipment manufacturers like um while way, like guns, etc too. i me slow um, quantitative price and cost effective equipment and put option solutions. so it's

played a really huge impact for some countries, china is also is attractive, better digital infrastructure at cheap loans and technicians who help implement the systems. but it's not always clear if the tech benefit citizens or the people in power at busy highways and intersections across kampala, there are chinese surveillance cameras. the government purchased them for more than 100000000 years. the cameras are equipped with software that recognizes spaces and scans license plates. you've gone to and officials and local journalists have said that some of them are neither monitoring nor recording crimes . members of parliament even called for a review of the cameras after they failed to capture footage of a police officers killing it's a claim that uses so one you know from you've gone this. police force denies

that additional. cctv no tracking, it's like true. the system is working and it really is supportive to, to, to fight, to increase the surveillance cameras had been in use since 2018. they footages the evidence which is driving from this issue to get this from this issue to resisting his undisputable handy. it has reduced progress because when they come back, look, we have seen a reduction in the there was, it behaves. yeah. they did before. there was a be so one day road. we have seen a reduction in a bad guys and so forth in the, in the a bunch sitting simply because of co service people. i know morris by see the cameras are part of why ways save city program designed by the chinese telecoms company to deploy surveillance. to technology, world wide, safe city technology reportedly helped police to monitor the cell phones. have you

gone to an opposition candidate, bobby wine. in 2021 wine. last against you wearing the 70 you kind as president for 35 years. this is why lawyer and digital privacy advocates san paula allen, because he says, it doesn't matter if the cameras work. their true purpose is to deter political opposition that we use to single participation. do use it now to compare to the most christians. it is easy to know on truck with addition, chinese companies may be supplying the technology, but you've gone to the government is deploying it. that for you to pay to stay in bullets. so anything possible why waste safe city project is global with 52 countries participating? according to washington, dc based the think tank csr. yes. 71 percent of these agreements are in countries considered partly free for not free. and let's be clear tech used for digital

repression is not only exported by china, but by western democracies too. so what's the difference reports like this might be the answer. allegedly computers in the african union headquarters in ethiopia, a building funded by china, was secretly sending data to service in shanghai every night. why this data was allegedly transferred remains aren't clear, but it's supposed to have been going on for 5 years. time denies any wrongdoing, but experts say this is an example of why there are concerns about working with chinese tech designs. so what about us the private use is does it make a difference whether it's k move take talk or google that takes our data? one difference is the time these companies not in a position to refuse handing over the data to the chinese government, does a lot of, of allegations that they uh, um, what's called the kind of digital back tools kind of built into, into networks. and that you know, that with, in some ways,

enable surveillance or aspiring or also, but it's something really the global self law. just a concern, like i think a lot of the stuff countries are a lot more worried about just getting digital access and the space and paying for china as technology has a global impact. many nations are willing to co operate in order to speed up digitalization, for example, in africa, southeast asia, that in america, eastern europe and the middle east. but do these tech and pause mean great. the chinese influenza, whether as a lead us or private uses, we should all can see the how much we use is made in china. you will read about data security, or do you think the benefits of chinese technology outweigh the risk that doesn't know by and see you next time the the varied sounds and returned the
