welcome back this is all she and in the headlines this week. senior politicians and police take a swipe at each other over the hundley the last riots in the u.k. while they play of the words that have local communities not going to themselves to keep it going on the streets of london and. also with the really close to trading the world by cheap things that global markets have and this is a new danger zone as investors lose confidence and economic leadership of several key countries. three years old south a century remembers the victims of

a short bloody bloody conflict one children launched an offensive to reclaim its own trees hundreds died in the ensuing five day one of the public is still trying to recover. as the headline is coming up our special report on russia's far east when i close of the soviet era makes the traditions that are centuries old. sharing of times and will strain the situation just a few kilometers from the chinese border of boston exactly a short shot from moscow possibly just mind a bit of jet lag if you're going to enjoy one of the most treacherous cities in russia's far east. as the region's administrative center homes more than half a million people and a place that really sparkles and some
9:32 pm
a. tourist some locals come out in force to enjoy the city's wide and picturesque west and down the river saw there are plenty of places to work on your town. and for the nature. very close to. now apparently this is one of the places in the whole of russia. in the wild now in eastern tradition the opening of the lotus flower petals. expansion of the soul so i'm hoping that my trip is going to be as well and i was going to start my journey down on the riverbank. hundred fifty years ago. it links russia with china and. it's a great way to see the city and. constantine is a lifelong. resident he offered to take me out on his yacht. of course.
9:33 pm
helping. train young sailors and we had a couple of shipmates. so . it wasn't long before we were doing it. and as the guys fixed up the rigging i took the rudder. i see this is pretty easy perfect weather beautiful calm water great day just be messing around in boats this is the eleventh longest river in the world but we were heading out to fall just enough to enjoy the water and get some great views. that's not the best way to get snow this river i can't think of one that said. it was trying to head back to dry land and for me to really start discovering the bars . if you want to point out about history there's one place
9:34 pm
that you have to visit this is the museum of regional law and it's the biggest and the most visited museum in the whole of the country's far east. london may two thousand people step into this building every year and they get to enjoy a huge collection of exhibits from live local river residents passions. one of the things that sets this place apart from most russian museums is that you can interact with the exhibits and today we've got some guests who come from even further east to see what life used to be like here in the far east of russia these schoolchildren a visiting from japan and the museum stalls immediately have them taking part in some nineteenth century village chores and once they've checked out all the old tunes it's time to really get into the swing of things. this is a way to live out the cost benefit just give you this place just the right. that's
9:35 pm
a problem dorry said rush. the kids to carry on the party and headed down to meet mr la reuben the museum's director who offered to give me a personal tour and he has his own theory on why the beacons ecosystem is so diverse. legend has it that when god was creating the world he planted the tiger and the tropics but when he arrived here he only had a handful of seeds to toss around but he did have a bit of everything so we have a wide variety of plants in these parts from plain trees to liana's to grapes and the same can be said about our fauna. this collection of local wildlife is a very popular exhibits and it includes one of the most famous and rare animals in russia poaches one of the main reasons why they are more target here is so terribly endangered but there is a place not too far from a bar which is doing its bit trying make sure the species doesn't honor. the kloof
9:36 pm
tree is about an hour's drive from the city and its refuge for injured or anonymous from the local region has. its role and opened by edward krugel of who's been taking in lost souls for the best parts of twenty years and he took me to meet some of the park's most recent arrivals. these are himalayan bears hopefully we'll be able to release them next spring but we need to feed them up first and. everyone has looked after more than two hundred beds over the years and despite a lack of funds most of yall since avoid being separated from their mothers these babies are only just a few months old they were rescued in winter here because the. very popular for hunters trophies for peace in china as well so it's very close. and these are the unfortunate ones who are left behind but you can see for about five months
9:37 pm
old. but this is most famous resident has considerably bigger. one of the rarest cats left on the entire planet. twenty years old and still. coming to say. i'm so tempted to try and. he's got to. luther was born here was a baby in the early ninety's and he's been here ever since he's the sanctuaries only permanent residence and despite being positively ancient for a tiger there's still plenty of life in him. the animal tiger is the biggest cats on the planet and way more than three hundred kilos but the numbers are under
9:38 pm
serious threats and it's estimated there are only around four hundred fifty left in russia's wilderness. mourners doing his best to improve their chances he's raised and released almost a dozen young cubs but before he does they need special training. this well unfortunately the lure of the. jungle being what it is these little guys are actually used when they have wild tigers here to train them how to hunt because this would be a has in the forest around here would be tigers natural prey and there are a few large saw gets wandering around here too so here also some rather i'm willing students of tiger school his two little bear as well. very useful when you're learning how to hunt. fortunately for bugs. there are no wild dogs in residence at the moment so if the law continues to hold the running away
9:39 pm
from the a few curious tourists. but there are vital parts of making sure we continue for some reason. back in the city has been invited to see a different sort of conservation projects involving four wheels rather than four bags and seeing cars like this is enough to bring back a few bad memories of frustrated instructors the old mine a fault because this is where people come to take pledge drive tests but the ministry of transport here isn't just concerned with getting new drivers started they're also responsible for getting some of the city's bins into automobiles. back out. but it's not just the direct anatoly nazir of his passionate about
9:40 pm
he's got one of the largest collections of models in eastern russia and i think that's very true here i've got cars of all makes including those that were made in the one nine hundred thirty s. here you see four makes and military vehicles and one of those military models was waiting for us in the carriage downstairs. apparently this old truck delivered letters during the second world war and the mechanics have been trying to get it back on the road so i think this one is almost. c runs with the magic touch. one of the most. surreal russian classics. down here. it's work.
9:41 pm
and. the old post truck drives again. but trucks are just the tip of the iceberg. and it's only as restoring the most nights of classic russian and foreign coals some of the success stories saw it. from vintage folders to ukrainian beatles most of these cause only see the launch of dale national holidays will special festivals but i was going to get a chance to take a couple of soviet specials the first. four i mean one of these things you could be very calm down turn because this is going to be the largest dearie. i've ever encountered while. you mustn't have to hit the gym so keep it under control but only one of these big powerful boulders was just a dream for most of us citizens back in the one nine hundred sixty s. . but it seems that all communist cops weren't quite so lucky.
9:42 pm
this may be the best police car ever invented for little circles really this list careful formerly people were smart oh for was the next one ok. so i figured out the gearbox of this trying. it was a lot easier to drive and one would have not seen been pushing that would have made all the bad guys. out here you know so i wouldn't be fifties russian police but. we have the world's smallest. possibly funniest car with which to catch criminals i'm not sure if it would be a good day i know because either they just sort of stop and pull out a lot that you were trying to catch them in this poll they'd run to cross because they wouldn't want to be seen. but decided that if i didn't want to permanently back a couple of circuits in my mini most beach would have to suffice but that wasn't
9:43 pm
going to be my last it's an obama venture. he came here dr smiles policeman smiles ministers was just. if you didn't find me if i could slip through the night. i would get my kids out of here because i knew that. what's going to happen was that he was going to kill me many victims don't understand that domestic violence includes verbal abuse psychological abuse physical abuse and sexual abuse at least four million women are affected by abuse every year those are my only two options that i thought that most. kill here on me in jail or he's going to kill it says.
9:44 pm
takes fifteen to twenty million years for the planet to recover from a major extinction event for the planet as time we don't. see spinning going on for about forty forty five years and sensors with eco terrorists before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorists in this country going to nine eleven have the bush administration could not find any terrorists because the feds couldn't find any real terrorists they decided to take these young people who were accused of property sabotage and label them as terrorists someone he'll destroy his property. with absolutely zero intention of harming a single human being. in my mind it's not fair and real people who are green in this country are the housewives who recycle. and the children who play trees on the weekend with their cub scout troops that's the.
9:45 pm
sound. of. tough.
9:46 pm
financial struggle couple of real russian classic calls into both of them to was ready for its best just yet it was time to walk the rest of its. measure on the old rules is all well and good but sometimes you just feel a need for speed and there's a place in a bar is where you really can come and. watch your aim is to drive carefully first to circle as you hear me run it primarily concerns you. have always been involved with racing for twenty five years and then runs the stream a club which takes part in competitions all over the russian far east he's already trained several local champions including his son misha who offered to show me the ropes assuming i could fit in the car of course. for about three big for the distance. james went up a little bit but look at that this is a visit next to getting into
9:47 pm
a go cart but after a handy push tools. some young students but this is a school that takes dedication and money mostly because of italian season japanese engines because simple dollars they can. regularly move into. serious adrenaline rush right are you ok. i'll tell you what that is all some fun but is a little bit difficult when you're eating. dust. it was time to take things a little easier and i went off to find a man with a rather more sedate hobby. looks like these guys over here have gone in for some double glazing in one of the old buildings but. i know someone is going to be able
9:48 pm
to make good use of an openness or like that. but the muses reclaimed pieces to repair and refurbish musical instruments and we were going to give an old good song a new lease of life. my siberian stone pine window sill was going to become a brand new sounding board. so these are good to fit together perfectly so i can make the front door. and once the planks have been playing down the old sounding board has to be removed as a proper technique to. sorting through your kit so. you could play its. q.c. and you destroy it's all good looking of a team's other instruments the results would be well worth it and also because of the old bulls i went to work on one of his handmade sent pieces. and fortunately putting everything together can take up to the dean wanted to show me exactly one
9:49 pm
of his creations how to wolf. never thought that an old dog and a couple of friends. i don't even see one conservation sense in me but it's not just land mammals that are getting a helping hand here. around fifteen years ago there were hundreds of tons of sturgeon and kalugin in the animal river but the fish is now critically endangered big cameo is a valuable delicacy and poaching and overfishing have seen their numbers decline to such an extent i don't need to i don't specimens were documented to have been cooled in this area in two thousand and nine is a situation that have led to miss the fish farm is trying to change the team in his work as a breeding young imo sturgeon and kaluga are in captivity and then returning them to the walls so this is the war they keep the food for the fish it looks like
9:50 pm
particularly lovely stuff. combination old insightful. wealth lawyer and some tiny prostate i mean very delicious we also heard of but. the fish in these tanks are only a few bones old but a full grown kaluga can live as long as a human way up so it's. very easy for saying boy about two thousand of these babies been in here and you can see the pretty lively. now there anyway about thirty to forty grams plus the perfect sowing is to give them a real shelf of survival in the river i think i can probably safely say that this may be the only thought in my life i'm ever going to see a fish vacuum cleaner this is what is transposing our kaluga at all stages into the fact that we can then release it into the river lake that. would like a quick did it leave
9:51 pm
a mess we've reached of course it was time to dry them so that was. some writing style here as we're just about to head off to the river and hopefully give these fish new lease of life releasing hundreds of leaves of water at once can be a bit tricky though i may have to do a little bit the solid rescue work. this is they so slow i have to think of these fish very soon we'll be taking them out on the boats. and i will find the right stuff in the river so they can be given. the film's only been operating since two thousand and eight but they plan to breed up to three million fish a year which should give the kaluga and the animal sturgeon a good chance of swimming in these waters in the decades to come. it's amazing to think that just a few years this little guy could be a few metres wide it's a few hundred kilos in weight and hopefully we've given him the best chance of making it because of this size hopefully he'll survive or amazing good luck.
9:52 pm
he really did feel that we were helping to regenerate a river that's been supporting the people of this region since time immemorial. before i left the bar of school i was going to meet some people whose ancestors had lived this way for millennia. area has been the home to the indigenous now no i which in their language means people for thousands of years and by the sounds of it. i think they're preparing for some kind of a storm. they're around twelve thousand and nine living in russia and they're the largest of the indigenous tribes it's a widespread community but every year people come back for a summer party of music and dance but it does take course if i'm going to. hopefully we will actually need this but just in case it doesn't rain. i should be
9:53 pm
able to keep everything nice and dry so the festival goes off without a hitch. everyone pitches in to help from the more mature to the very. top what's your name you know james. oh very friendly here it is nice. this kind of event gets everyone excited and they don't hold back only entertainment. the way. today we're going to feed the spirit of fine. this spirit is the master of finance his name is pajama but needed after that. will have a touch of perception where we're going to feed the spirits of water.
9:54 pm
today and there will also be a drag of the dragons that have been burridge from the chinese but it's not true they're an ancient part of all culture too. but this. is going to be one of the big centerpieces of tonight's. cereal can bring it up so it doesn't fall down and we can really see how the nominee celebrate the culture. as soon as we've finished people supposed to arrive . and watch a game of charcot which looks like a particularly dangerous blend of fully gaining the cross. and then it was joyful adults to drive us. and. this is what the festival is really all about so it's for the next generation oh no need to get
9:55 pm
together and practice their citizens with their ancestors have been carrying on for centuries it's a village celebration and i knew all the everyone in the community to get together and really celebrate their culture the worst may be a long way from moscow but it's worth the effort to get here is close to russia's forest has a rich history and a community that cares about the city and the future of its advantages. i don't. so. if.
9:56 pm
you want to order for. mrs tree still keep some secrets of alex times and feel that the soviet files ought to be some. wealthy british style. but i'm surprised. markets by now come to find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look of the global financial headline is going to cause a report on our. if. any is eve if. you.
