5:30 pm
it honestly tried to do the workings, 32 hours a week has to be better for the assignments and 40, but of course we shouldn't be 90 the. the living scientists just had subscribed, whatever you listen to had cost versus the the news african coming up on a program house in crisis. how can, can you address a shortage of 2000000 new income homes? we take a look at how some of night will be homeless, people like guessing by and explore some of the challenges and options i had asked kenya stab and population groves plus how remote work has re shaping the house in markets in tape town. the government is welcoming them, but some locals are not so keen to find out why. also i have a jew belonged to attend to office will gone as president elect john muhammad, as the country bottles on economic prices will examine what his victory means. but one of africa's model democrats and bringing images to lights. he meets the other
5:31 pm
mates as and was on the beach, helping them hard children to express themselves through removing the hello. there i am eddie micah junior and you are welcome to the program. you may be lucky enough to have a roof over your head, but not everyone has that luxury in kenya, the countries facing a critical house in the shortage with a deficit of nearly 2000000 units. now any of this you have, the governments passed the controversial levy that forces employed canyons to contribute 1.5 percent of the income towards house and construction. the claims that this levy would finance the construction of $200000.00 affordable houses annually. but how realistic is that? and would it be affordable enough for the thousands of homeless people on the
5:32 pm
margins of poverty? you'd have used either tamani reports from nairobi, a mechanic like training, and what's the best and noticed he spends most of his time with friends. these days that the 2 year old lost his job unexpectedly and for the last 2 years, he's been homeless. the sudden and dramatic changing keys life let him here to month every one of kenya's oldest slums into a very different life. and had we had a pause then it's hard and it's very, very hard. hideous. like when you, when it capital sits, a, you'd rob a sleep hungry but at least have some way to sleep. you out of shelter is a priority because you don't know what could happen to you when you're out to you when the receives out to you of the diseases or the police. never also the unknown, somebody to jane in itself, but the t needs 11 years a month for rent here,
5:33 pm
but he's rarely called to fix cause these days. so food is all he can afford. it's getting dark and the clouds have gathered. rain is inevitable. everyone rushes towards the homes as though by command tea leaves us to a shak, where a friend is allowing him to stay. the shack is dumb and duck. a team, those who have to pay something are leaving a few days. so he keeps his things ready. in this environment, he has no control allowed. there were 2 of us who were sleeping with a bunch of friends come over, we welcome them. he was well the following day. they rubies homeless wake up before dawn. cool and, and sucks for ones most sleep fully dressed and the overalls and shoes ready for work during the day. it's estimated that some 300000 people in can you leave this week? so people like just 3 euros a day,
5:34 pm
can be the difference between living on the streets or here in a windowless room with nothing but a bed and mattress. the clothes vendors sometimes finds the money. sometimes he doesn't life on the edge of homelessness. it's easy to get stuck in miss routine. you look some money for food under room. if you buy drug saw alcohol, that's all you get on your money's gone, just like that. so we're back in my diary to look for teeth who we're told might be in the local drinking den. here we find the owner, doreen, who offers have space to those with know where to go. this is a life i've experienced, so i don't judge anyone. i give them some way to sleep, so when they get out of here, they can help others. how customers ask us to tell the
5:35 pm
stories not to coordinate either we have a problem like we've never seen before, and how we my, my house is what demolished everyone was asking where we could go. we still don't know what to do, but god bless this woman. the during then can sleep up to 9 men, and she has been one of them in the past. but tonight she's fortunate to have somewhere less crowded to sleep, at least for now. let's get more from mary. i'm a minor that consultants in town planning and data and allotted successful african towns and cities. hello and welcome to the program. that's critical house instruct agent. can you some reports suggest that i'm asked to meet that 300000 people homeless? tell us more about what is driving this. thank you very much. and so some of the
5:36 pm
challenges that come around creating other homelessness. you can't use the such that the growing population does not have adequate housing. that is affordable. i don't think the right locations area today was with me to the so you're trying to get to us to access your. ready rent housing, the senior budget in this town. so too much do you mind into the flag to use for the shows that make sense is a bit too high or the just missing out housing. and that's the explanations of homelessness. some of the completion, right, which we, we saw in our report. so to try to address the house in crisis, the governments introduced a controversial house in levy to continue collecting 1.5 percent off of work is monthly pay, right. the levy is intended to pay for the construction of $200000.00 affordable housing for poor i canyon speech here. how realistic is that? the chinese i think comes in when the levies. oh, there is a too much for the what?
5:37 pm
cuz not too much in terms of the technician that is happening position, but at the same time, how long would it take for these limited defense, january? it's kind of housing, what the number of housing but i need. uh so what does it take to get in challenges you're hitting, the market to the technician is already too high. so people have been taxed to be can be a right addition. i mean, even though the policies can support the production of housing usually doesn't have been fussed already. that housing does not do that being said, we do have a problem with the people that being taxed to produce more housing. so show the governments just build fee houses for people or the housing book because it's a different problem, but you will, like you mentioned the key challenge when people talk about housing. also the bt the question is how do you make housing affordable to households?
5:38 pm
number one, you can make them, you can raise income so that people can afford the housing. that's what we did. or you can give trying to build more houses. and the question is, who is able to fund the houses that you're building? but this is what i would not think is the government is trying to take all of the rules of housing production because number one can not necessarily and probably the sense of what mass housing programs. and number 2, governments that i've tried to build moines more houses and you find that you can never deal with enough housing as a government for the month continuing to happen in the cities in the counties. so the question is not necessarily built for the houses i think is perhaps the quotes, the housing market. so the a is what i'm saying is can you share some, you know, practically mission eaters that could help solve that house in crisis? so yeah, thank you. and i think we really and there's 2 minutes to cover the cover tons of investment that are happening after density. so you're good to do next memorabilia
5:39 pm
where you. oh, there is nothing in the labels in give telling me, joiners, but what do you see? easy is already the housing markets that and watching how some of the risk. but there is a housing markets. the rental market to never be, for example, that either of us is telling us, perhaps they're very low income households to that, that'd be enough to access the data. so was national governments have changed to come up with let's get policies, which is what i think housing finally, housing maybe easy to punctuate exercise, trying to generic housing. what you should do? i think it, the system doesn't mean to look at. it could be something saying, what is the housing markets? there will be, for example, these 90. anybody have us in the rentals and they don't. these policies should be leveraging government policies to improve visual market 16, the apologies. so that is to begin to use the case of this to see what is happening with the rental that is making people that are able to afford how to resolve.
5:40 pm
fortunately to associate, that is to ensure that colleagues market that'd be improved. for example, high equity to rental, but affordable rental. so as opposed to trying to change this, it is a to how they agree. it's coming mission, why be out and impose them and make them want based off of the low income households, easy to use. i think those are the strategies that she does that have tried to do that uh, moving costs over at least getting closer to reading the ability to go back to do that. i'm trying to introduce entirely new policies that's up against the kinds licensing the c t. a thanks a lot for your time, mary. i may not be able to attend in town fine and have on day 10 on it. it takes full african towns and cities with pegasus group. thank you very much. i. now, cape town in south africa is also facing a house in crisis. the arkansas ends, the influx of weston remote workers, west and in this situation by driving up property prices, the so called digital no months and in foreign courtesies,
5:41 pm
given them on the edge of the locals in the rental markets. instead of africa's new 3 visa for remote workers, could i attract even more of them out into consensus about affordable housing? did of use diane whole kind of how small big town is one of my favorite destination i've ever worked from? and that's really saying something cute and i am finally here. check out my permit for the next 6 weeks on line testimonials like this. show how many digital nomad went to live and work in tape. and who wouldn't want to relocate to one because most beautiful city streets of keeping the city center people can enjoy walks along the sea point from an odd and public transport is easily accessible and the abundance of capt. phase restaurants and co work spaces.
5:42 pm
also make it easy to promote you a citizen, quote me simone. make cape town home for 3 months this year and hopes to make the city a regular destination. she runs a travel and adventure business remotely, often working from the phone like i get, i feel like you have so much variety and again, the opportunity to meet so many cool people as you're working or as your networking or just trying to get a vi for the city of cape town, stunning location is also part of the problem with the city slammed by an ocean on one side and a mountain on the other. this means all calls and travelers all complete the space in a narrow patch of land and those with dollars and yours, a winning the contest. the suburbs closest to the city center. those closest to
5:43 pm
table mountain have become some of the most expensive suburbs to live in, not only in cape town, but in the country as a whole. would stuff is one such so that it was once low income neighborhood. now, apartment buildings a spring up on every corner, mostly catering to a growing know med market. yeah, a one bedroom apartment costs about half of the average monthly salary rates for many locals. the housing prices carries the stock in mind of the pot take year with black and brown, people were only allowed to live in designated areas. it becomes very difficult for us to find property because now if either there is no property or the privacy is very expensive, is also creating that certification and segregation between people. because now it's not about the color of your skin. it's all about what money you have,
5:44 pm
but the awesome people working to fix the problem. like the development action group, the n g o advocates will housing policy changes that favor create an inclusive community. this is why we need to re lease land and year mark land at the end of the fours, affordable housing so that people can exercise and close the economic opportunities in public transport we have because while digital no meds may bring much needed money into the local economy, residents of cape town say changes must be made to ensure the city remains the home . so gonna is preparing to wash out in a new government after joining my home is victory in last week's presidential
5:45 pm
election. the change. com is that a crucial time gun? i is experienced and it's whereas the comic tension in years despite maintaining its democratic stability, expectations are high. but of my how my problem is, is he will bring gonna reset it, needs celebrating a new dawning, gonna support as of john, remind me my home a welcome the news of his victory in last week's presidential election. they've given him the mondays to relieve them of that current troubles, and in his words, to reset, gone to mamma 1st became head of state in 2012 after the death of president john mills, whom he served as vice president. and he's relishing the opportunity to return to the seat of power that a great turn the river. this is because i have learned
5:46 pm
however, we have the 10 minutes of work together with you to build the government. we went mama was himself criticized heavily for the see the a power cuts and alleged growth of corruption during his previous presidency. it's exactly why the people voted him out and rejected him again on his 2nd attempt at a return to the top job. but now the 3rd times a charm good. nance have decided in the current context of economic town, while the john mama is the man to spock. change that spring in franklin who do the guardian political commentator and founder of the money sent out for policy and education. hello. say welcome so far, my precedence, and now president elect joined my how my house and lots on his plate. no doubt. he's promised to fix the economy and restart donna. what would that look like as
5:47 pm
well? thank you for having the um, i in these days when you use the word reset. uh how many and be so many things i think of the oh, just just wanna make sure kind of i suspect that the, the one, the web reset, reset the reset as use the glass to the, the kinds of govern us. which less but which, where are called and really, really, really surprised, but no matter what, defend of human rights. and indeed the someone who jumped to you on the columbia grasp was actually up taking this to those days. and so when, when, when the best them, why am i sees i reset, reset. their private means that we'll, we'll, we'll know, we'll try not to mention this or trying to replay those. dr. peter, it's a game now. and so for me is okay, that'd be should be a governess. and then probably even the content, right. of course it cannot be my best tools. they restart. so she says, i mean, it looks like a reset to that whole diagnostic effects i gain. and then maybe from there will be
5:48 pm
too long on one to some of the lots are on the mean. i should probably start writing. right? i mean, obviously the economy is definitely the key. all you know, the list of things that he should do. number one, definitely the economy. i mean, he's talked about that 24 hour economy. maybe that's part of the plan that would help you know, that's, that's all we stats that the whole country. but, you know, we've already established that this will be my homeless, fast time, us precedents. what lessons do you hope you have lens from his previous administration because it was all smooth or indeed it wasn't the way he spoke to gun. yes, i saw one when he was excited as a spring there said he meets was that most most wretched, redone and youtube does not have the balls. he also, for the most be said, he's not, he's a bad tooth and that people keep complaining. they're not going to use the fitness
5:49 pm
at some point in fact, and for those of us who it is besides that he goes along. so i suspect you never ever go back to them again. but on the, i think clearly speaking, unemployment has been a bit jumps you, but i think the change by come on me by the way, it's about policy. i mean i see the region of default conditions and reduction in boxes. they do that. that was the cost of being business being high, passes and i'll just read the been real garcia and nutritionally being high. if they're gonna do something about that, at least we gotta begin to bruce also the friendship. go speak, dennis, us ok to them. but i don't, that's up to you of them i called right. all right. and just do while i'm jeans, unity and i think you're going to be minded, used to reduce them by how we're not stuck to basically the process of research. and then i suspect also that it needs to work hard from the beginning and the side
5:50 pm
of things because you need the need to be able to, to be able to, one of the, from all these things by some of the people would need should by when people use my the spring would have to have some rebates. right? right. so what have to wait? what am next for? yes, is going to be like, but can you think is what is selection kind of has again proven. it's trained in democracy, but it's more how about open to being challenged by well position, civil society and the media based on his track record. well, he's going to publish or books read. i mean, we, some of the, remember when these are producing can supply, i mean the queen and so you know exactly what we can do. this is that they want done yes. then say so p, the last space, easy to say game that then is that something that has uh, either a reminder that the demand is pitching much i live and will take nothing but good governance and indeed come to the village. right?
5:51 pm
looking at regional dynamics, how do you think about how might position gone is leadership role in west africa? is it should be pretty, pretty important about that. as we know, the seller region has become a replace drum. so all these verbal activities. and so we've got the, i didn't, he needs to vote congress. i initial ever fold them down because we're talking about the full, i mean brushing phone from this, the holland machine, or it's already happening. but we cannot afford it, scaling back scaling all the way down to the stop. so we need to put a slid us in front of that up quickly and see i can run it wrong, but it's not any of us, but obviously spend stand this little these rather back on the, in the midst of mine is very difficult, but also uh yeah, i mean if you need to do something about the history, then i suspect you lounge for my browser sent me the reason and then see how best
5:52 pm
you guys separate the piece. right? franklin code, your social, political commentator. thank you very much for your time. what was a pleasure, as you say, the head of the saying the pen is mightier than the sword, when a group of unto mates as it was on these carpets, all of my poor to breathing new life into it, they hold workshops for children and young adults interested in 90 mation in the hope that the ad form will spock social dialogue. they tackle big topics like the dangers of capitalism and corporate greed. it's a unique way to get the creative juices flowing. we've all seen a bull bounce, but would you be able to draw that movement if us to these children are faced with that exact challenge? they participating in a workshop in most,
