global economy. so waves, traditional solutions to buy its times and knuckle down for a range of international industry veterans. what can they do to keep pace of development? case in point, the us aircraft manufacturer has been lurching from one disaster to the next to the new ceo pulled a company out of its tail, then also and made today. europe spaceport and south america is ramping up the german car industry as in prices and losing ground fast. what's going on? plus say an id which makes drive against the wedding industry in germany and india . the

only silver jet miner taken off nearby deafening, and serve as a reminder, this is boeing's future or flight center in utility, just north of seattle, washington. it is conveniently located just a few 100 yards from boeing's massive everett factory the future flight center. how's the cynics efficient showcasing the global aerospace companies, travelers in all things? well, oh, ition, defense and space. the deep dive into the rich history of the ation be he must a glimpse into the past present and it's future. it's all here. it's chinese and glossy version. boeing started out as a lumber company and western washington state and then grew into the the giant. it is an aerospace today over the last 100, the, the,

the voice message manufacturing introduction complex see in washington state is like a small town of its own, out of around 170000 globally. $30000.00 plus people work here alone. on the latest and newest boeing jetliners like the triple 7 x, for example. boeing has a lot of pedigree and different areas of throughout its long existence and america that impact people where they work on how we travel. space defense and national security. and a lot of ways that impact us on a, on a daily basis and our daily lives so no surprise, boeing's order books are full. there's a back look of orders. the company is trying to few as soon as possible and with new and or improve products and development. boeing should be in a good place now. and for the future problem is it is not,

not at all in june 2024, dave calhoun, c o. s. boeing at that time appear to send it to you right after more than 5 years of set of misses and serious mistakes that even costs. natalie tragedies calhoun got an earful from us senators is kind of own more than 5 years after the max crashes. do you think boeing has done enough to thank you for the question? i asked myself that question every day. have we done enough? i think the truth is mr. calhoun, you're not focused on safety. you're not focused on quality. you're not focused on transparency. all of this is in the record, but i think actually you're focused on exactly what you were hired to do, which is that you're cutting corners. you are eliminating safety procedures. you are sticking it to your employees. you are cutting back jobs because you're trying

to squeeze every piece of profit you can't out of this country use this company. you're strip mining it. you're strip mining. boeing. sen. uh, i don't recognize any of the boeing you described really, and i want to assure you don't recognize it by the way that has the airplanes falling out of the sky. that has had to max is crash, that has had pieces of doors fall out of the sky. and here is where boeing really is right now. experts say 2 deadly, 737, mx crashes left. boeing smacks we've grounded for nearly 2 years. the 787 line is facing delivery delays due to quantity problems, the downturn and commercial air traffic, and subsequently in a line orders for new planes due to co, with $19.00 cost pedal to the company supply chain set up. and finally, in january 2024, the door sized patio from 737, mx 9, blew out 6 minutes after an alaska airlines flight took off renewed concerns about

boeing's ability to produce safe plains. then there also are concerns about safety . a commercial airliner, one of the most important things, both from a regulatory standpoint a to avoid regulatory scrutiny and also just for reputation with your passenger. so you depend on to do your business, even though they're not your main customer. it's the airlines. but your reputation for safety is very important and that translates into a full plate of massive concerns and big problems for the new see or boeing, robert kelly or an aerospace industry veteran or burke in charge. it's august 2024 . this task with making things right again at boeing. but that's easier said than done boys output the production of jets, the still constrained by regulators. the federal aviation administration or f a, a has put boeing under a microscope of increased and intensified scrutiny and oversight. as a result,

the nation's largest export, or is bleeding money within $4000000000.00 in cash every 3 months, adding to the $33000000000.00 it already carries as that from core operating losses accumulated in the last 5 years. plus, in addition to all of those issues, the production has been impacted on their west coast factories by recent strikes. that strike scene is in union strike less than $53.00 days before it was result and reportedly cost boeing additional billions of dollars in los revenue. we were able to get wage increases of over 38 percent or this is a victory and we achieve something that we had a cheap last point 2 years with a solemn history of itself. the international association of the machine is an aerospace workers for insurance. i a m, was quickly criticized by some for asking too much at the wrong time from boeing management, that we did have stagnated wages over 10 years, with

a massive cost shift on healthcare. we were threatened, our livelihoods were threatened with work, leaving the state. and we had to use this is our opportunity to make gain strong games that we hadn't in the last, you know, 101520 years. so it was very important that we use this leverage to the fullest. and they're always comes a time at which you have to lock in the gains and we did. and the buying company can still be very successful and can't be successful without the eye and together. hopefully we can bring this company back on track, increase the rates and start building airplanes in a safe, efficient way going forward. boeing is in a squeeze management denounced, it will cut 10 percent of the company's workforce. that's 17000 jobs. these layoffs will be accompanied by other cost cuts divestment and spending restrictions. all of that has an impact on morale, of course, and comes with

a bad time. like the ailing aerospace giant must do everything it can to restore its tarnish reputation by changing its culture. and improving is production process with a focus on quality, a week decimal, or even failing. boeing company based in nobody's interest experts. there's no 2 companies like air bus and boeing in the world right now. each of them has over 40 percent of the market share for commercial aircraft. but the backorders for these companies are so large that if one company falters or weekends or fails, and that doesn't mean that the other can pick up the load, pick up the slack. most companies are limited and how many airplanes they can produce. so it's not a windfall for air bus if boeing out symbols or vice versa, if air bus squared assemble, i think what we should consider though, is there waiting in the wings, is china with an interest to build a sector to sell commercial aircraft? not just domestically to to china, which is a very important market,

but also globally. however, it's not all do include for the storage aerospace, but he minutes after all the us government doesn't one going to fail because the pentagon, the us military cannot have boeing freight and the airlines don't want volume to frame either as they make lots of money flying digits or go, there are a lot of reasons for a lot of interest and boeing figuring out it's many problems and succeed of the european space agency of setting up sites high. and pivotal to its quest is the expansion of it spaceport and french beyond those plans need big investments in a lucrative sector. this attracting more private players to yes, aims to increase the frequency if it's a yearly rocket launcher. and in the process, spread its wings and its presence in outer space,

the, the space center in overseas territory. french deanna in south america is europe only spaceport at most a handful of rockets each year. take off from here. but that's that to change. the facility is investing 250000000 euros to boost and diversify its activities. a new control center will be ready here in 2026. let me push him back. one more family film cutoff. yeah. okay. multiplan sweetheart. i am for 9 launches next. yeah, and in the long run, 15 or more each year counts, but they have hundreds of personal small would also accommodate micro launches at a site where constructing jones, i feel dicky, i'm going to go flip sure these private rockets, some of reduce capacity. but you're gonna have a lot more launches each. yeah. the centers director says the gear up is necessary

. not only since rushes invasion of ukraine, which brought space cooperation with moscow to a halt. competition has gotten rougher, not least through private players such as us billionaire, even mosque, and his company space ex you typically me guessing when everything is done through start the lives out assets for telecommunication. this is where the full costs, climate surveys, etc. and you really suppress on so space is turned into a crucial economic sector looking for we need our own access to it. the space thought that split the purpose or with more yearly launches to come friend space supply or euro propulsion will have to provide more rocket motors in future. it will boost its workforce from currently $39.00 to at least $45.00 am. please allow me to note that up i see well increase our capacity to, to production lines on. we'll have to give the training to help people means a lot of corporate i'm is to maintain auto. none of us on know to me will issue for the 5th will 1st will reduce costs come over to who's so,

so that your opinion rockets can be competitive on international level rates will see a little upset. auto band. it difficult to define the will more business at the space center will be a boon to the local economy. space ports activities currently represent about 15 percent of french pianos, g, d, p, and future. at least 1800 people will work at the space center up from 1500 now. but even with the plan construction works, the space center will have to do more to keep up with the international competition . says this business consultant about the integrated basic launch is at least a 100 rock. and so yeah, that's all you know by 0 response to launch about 10 in the building. this is not comparable to that, but it's going on and then he couldn't any, most of the micro launches haven't reached the commercial estate janitorial. so they're not ready at all. so, and this will go with a all sale he's coming up there. and yet there are not only economic arguments for modernizing the space center. the machine is only now china,

the us with their own policy era, russia, which is no longer launching from handle. so it's important to have our own. the spaceport on strategy in the world continues to reach for the stars. but we might well be seeing less cooperation and more competition between the various players in the burgeoning space markets, the or back on planet or the german car industry is facing its fair share of tough task. one of the biggest challenges making the switch to eaves and other 0 emission vehicles staying competitive on the road ahead will require more flexibility, ingenuity and technical agility. what's gone wrong for german car makers? how can they recover and redeem the reputation as world leaders?

the excellent engineering, robust construction, cutting edge technology on unmatched plot to your german cars and vans have been celebrated worldwide for decades. but the winds have changed, and the german auto industry is now showing signs of under village. it is not all of a sudden folding of the eclipse case, the lack of roughly 500000 comp. yes. carmen acres are having to adapt to major transformative processes and other challenges that situation applies. not solely to the automotive industry, nor exclusively to german cars, being the powerhouse of your power mix, germany more exposed, the market is lacking in comparison to pre corona,

roughly 2000000 cost as folks bought them. for example, as the group was participating with nearly 25 percent market share, this means that is a lot of roughly 500000 costs. the the motors industry is not the only industry that is suffering from higher energy prices, higher, higher wage prices. but also this is changing the role of china no longer being just a very welcome export destination, about actually being a system rival, a few years competitive. the impact of these factors is evident in the profits of germany's leading time manufacturers. over the last 2 years. the quarterly results of books back in the, in w and mercy. this have declined. in the 3rd quarter of 2024, they plummeted. the decline the presents more than just the hiccup. as soon as far as are the consequences, the dripping outward, rising cost effective, both the industry and consumers making the challenges even more complex

the course, the question, the cost, high energy costs, which were up to the pandemic rising to, to the re principal. then, of course, as well due to the rising costs, every where people are having less money in their pocket. so they're demanding rides. it's all the categories and things of course, has been adding as well to the increase of costs while of course, they are doing all the with the automotive sector is the largest in germany and serves as a cushion pillar of the economy. to put things into perspective, last year, germany exported cars was 273000000000 euros motor vehicles accounted for over 17 percent of germany's exports, followed by machinery, chemicals, electronics, pharmaceuticals, mentos and a variety of other products. there is no wonder if people say when the auto

industry sneezes, the entire german economy got to the quote because the car industry is not just about cards. if you add to that suppliers, suppliers of suppliers, if you add to that entire infrastructure as being, depending on the automotive industry, just think of where some of these factories are very often in the middle of nowhere . so there are really entire cities, villages, with their infrastructure being dependent on the automotive industry. wide chinese brands like new id has taken over b w's leadership on their own domestic market. trying these cars or the competitive on price have not yet surpassed that technology. go tap abilities of german models, particularly in areas like connectivity and entertainment. caught the german car industry be at a turning point, potentially facing a face like that of look year or even quarter. i think we still have a very strong car,

automotive industry in germany. it is not that german common new factors no longer sell cars, they only sell less cars then then then in the past, the market has become more competitive. they just need to get back. that is best for success. that they need to be foster in production and developing, especially with the german automotive industry, facing significant challenges and tests that are what i had with them on further innovation and adaptability. the from colors to bleeding in very special ring. and when it comes to the actual wedding for all the variety worldwide, one thing couples have in common is making. i do a unique and unforgettable moment. mc austin lavish celebration. and no country is as big on weddings as india facilities option. go on for days and

nothing is left to chance in an industry where money is no object. indian weddings can involve views of turning with hundreds or thousands of people attending the celebrations and preparations, taking up weeks or even months and the couple of the time on what's known as winning street in galley futures bounces, and this families can find everything they need for their big day, indian weddings are elaborate affairs and business is booming and the every day new shops open here, creating a lot of competition. if i hadn't got cost us $4.00 and a half 1000 rupees, if we set up a $5000.00 competition, we sell them for only a $500.00 profit margin for the show because there are lots of other shops,

conserving expenses also have to be met the, the stuff to pay the rent, the electricity bills, a lot of competition. i'm very low margins in india and the bride and groom ends, their entire entourage, go to get outfit and they spend a lot of money on average, hundreds of yours per person on clothes alone. yeah, i'm i paul blip out of the leg it pop up out of there. yeah, we dress grooms on their fathers, on the grooves mounted on the could include your brother in law or your younger brother. what was the governor? we sent them the including the, brian's brother. oh yeah. those are the about the blue dress. oh, the v i p. yes. attending the way to your home. maybe i'd be more minor ones of how many they are coming up here in bavaria in southern germany. the bride in green to be, are shopping at a wedding trade fair. while hundreds of guests gathered to celebrate in india celebrations in germany on far less impressive couples in germany are now spending

less on weddings due to high inflation hospitals. there are still some big weddings which we're really happy about. but overall weddings, it becomes smaller. the fair cells, everything for the special day visitors can have rings made by the bridal gown or hire a photographer. but with the economic crisis making itself felt, many exhibitors have simply stopped coming up saw most of the nose up because they've closed down the distance that's really sign either seeing people who i've been working with for many years having to give up their business to business no longer viable and possibly the rising payroll costs are right. it's less than getting ahold of the meet the most expensive wedding of all time took place in moving by in the summer of 2020 for the cost for the couple on on time barney and radi come merchant over 100000000 euros. the room is the son of an indian businessman and multi millionaire. among the guests were celebrities from

around the world. this couple of live in canada and have spent almost 3 years preparing their 7 day wedding. those who can in india celebrate the occasion in grandiose style, i think, yeah, i all for every, via, via that. so a life changing event, then yes, it's a, it's, it's the most latest. the grandest event that we have in 152 phones, especially from canada, who in the all 3 months in the month. so i just came for 5 days just for the shopping because the windows and in the other not big and women daughters. the bigger and more spectacular, the better. on average indian families spend up to a 100000 girls on a wedding, maybe in wyoming and living. it's so once in a life by now put unity, i know, and one point is also sort. so media, you can say they want to live this moment and then again and again again and again maybe go to these ends. i think this is,

this is the one that indians i use this who wants to show them want to show this status to other people and that's what it takes to them in other areas. i think around the words, it's not the same. the couple took 60 days off work for their wedding, which had over $400.00 guests arriving from around the world. back in germany, while the number of visitors to the wedding fare is still limited. business is good for this jeweller. he's benefiting from high gold prices and demand for wedding ring to some couples even come in as a weekend to make their own brings with the jewelry in the hospital. and it always has to be something special and individual. this goes under, in our case, special elements using the family's own gold. so someone might bring along the bring a bed to cease grandmother, for example, an evening which lives on and the new waiting right on the the in knowing evening bye to lead you to this your size and scale of weddings. in india,

many couples hire a planner, some shots of touch on and north, so high sounded their company 5 years ago, and it's really paying off. people started spending more on reading this because it, so competition sort of a big because, you know, every government wants to be different from the previous government. so you also have to come up with a lot of ideas every time you need somebody new. so you, all people are spending what india is, a country of contrast with extreme poverty, but also a growing affluent class. a major reason why the business for winning planners continues to grow back in germany. business is good for this wedding planner to things too. i love couples, she organizes weddings that cost upwards of $50000.00 bureaus in my name can to my clients are people who don't have the time because they work full time, but want their wedding to be organized so that the brightens room can sit back and

relax the plan and come to this couple is going home. happy today with lots of ideas for their wedding. as in the past, i still need something to where she already has the address, if that's what half of the rings on to get a few ideas for decorations and what have you. and to give you the over in india, it's time for the party to begin with a couple and their guests are like a truly memorable celebration. and that's it for this made party with industry giants aiming to take off again in the air and on the ground and a space for investing in the future. so you out of love the, to the point. strong opinions, clear international perspective. the man who may well be germany's next

chancellors for top anti immigration policies, even if that means getting help from the far right f d, how far is the features from max willing to go showing us this week on to the point to the point next on dw, what is important? what can go crucial questions for humanity. because the storage of data and objects is becoming ever more sophisticated, we need ever less space for it. a step forward and a new challenge collecting, storing, and preserving in to oh is on d w, the

let's say together. part of our community life on the research is now on speak to germany as conservative as c d u. the party of uncle americal as outraged other parties by trying to pass through a tough anti immigration policies using support. from the far right, it is a huge tebow, broken in parliament see to you later finish match tried to push through draft legislation with backend from the a s t the alternative for germany. now the country is wondering how far to the rights are. germany's conservatives willing to go merits his party is at the top of the poles less than a month before national elections. so this week on to the point, we're taking a closer look at the germany's conservatives today are.
