people and these sanctions are unilateral, corrosive measures. they effectively destroy syrians and they are slowly killing the syrian people and what i call syria central, which is under the protection of the syrian government. obviously the u. s. is still occupying the fuel resources, food resources, agricultural resources in the northeast. it's bombing, the army crossing between iraq and syria, which is bringing a central humanitarian aid food, and even oil also to lebanon. that crossing has been regularly bombed by the us and by israel. and really the public outrage is being prevented by western media because western media is only talking when they mentioned syria, even in that new york times article where they're talking about keeping the sanctions on an effectively how i see. these are people who are calling for functions to be maintained on syria. they are traitors to their own country into

their own people. and they are effectively us state department, nighttime funded economic hickman. there's no other way to describe them because they know exactly the pain that the syrian people are suffering under. the economic sanctions regime and under the continued military pressure and the hybrid will pressure that's been kept on this country. and now this country faces potentially for the military conflict, because as i said, the west is, is capitalizing on it. and this entire tragedy is being kept from western public by western media. they're not even aware of it. why? because western media will only talk about the northwest and that is under the control of ok. and that's the only area that is receiving humanitarian aid because that's the area that serves the purpose of the u. s. u k. cro. all right and good devastation that has been caused by the sanctions is truly impossible to put into

words at the end of the day. but we really appreciate you joining us to break this all down. and to paint this clear picture for the viewer who truly is not seeing this information in the western media. independent investigative journalist, vanessa b. lee, thank you so much for your time and insight and the world bank has said the rhetoric coming from teenagers president towards african migrants is unacceptable. adding its lending facility will be immediately shut down . this statement comes amid protest in tunisia after the countries presidents that african migrants pose a threat to national security and the countries identity. thousands of residents gathered in the streets, calling for an end to discrimination. and racism are correspond that has more detail on the ongoing political crisis. several sub saharan countries, including avenue coast, my lee, guinea and barn are helping their citizens return from tunisia following controversial remarks from the countries president that concern illegal immigration

into the country. president kaiser, he's recently described, illiterate, illegal border crossings from sub saharan africa into the country as a crime which was aimed at changing the demographic composition often easier. the undeclared goal of the success of waves of illegal immigration is to consider tunisia purely african country. that has no affiliation to the arab. and islamic nations and the influx of irregular migrants must quickly be ended, said, went on to claim that the continuous illegal immigration is intended to turn to media into an african country with no belonging to the arab and muslim world. adding that to the ones behind the scheme are involved in human trafficking and suggested that black africans are to blame for all of this. today, we are accused of being too numerous in their countries. yet they themselves knew that this would happen that tunisia, residence permit is given to everyone,

but there is disorder because people have no papers and there is an abuse of power . now the african union has strongly condemned the statements by to knees and government calling them racial and shocking. the union has also cancelled a conference, a plan to hold in to neither later this month. and this is understood to be the biggest crackdown since presidency needs power. grabbing 2020 to one way, he sat to the prime minister, suspended parliament and pushed through a constitution that consolidated he's a power seat himself. has denied all these accusations. there are so many enemies of democracy, tunisia who want to do everything they can to torpedo the countries democratic and social life from within. now it's clear that say year to is enjoying the support of the u. s. which has previously praised the democracy off to nicea the biden

administration in particular muddled through months soft seeds and centralization of power and control that was following the footsteps of off previous u. s. administration. the found accommodation with a rob strong men, out of perceived a strategic necessity. and that's all for now. be sure to check out our t v dot com for all the latest breaking news and updates was the right back here at the top of the hour. a ah

ah, the kind of liberal agenda we see the west now. it's not really we based, but it kind of ways i really just create that child to try to all sorts of realistic practical objections. so that nation off creating and kind of city on the hill on a the the news

ah, the proportion of people age is 60 years and over in the world will double from 11 to 22 percent for the year 2015. so many countries have seen this is a worthy challenge and are creating a various way to properly care for their aging population. while others continue to not see this as a priority. compared to the other parts of society for demanding resources. i'm going to use it on this up. so up 360 view, we're going to look at the various a global elderly care system to probably an existence and why some of the higher income countries are refusing to accurately address the problem. let's get started . ah. well, quality of life is improving and medical care continuing to advance is

a goal worth achieving. the growing number of an aging population is creating a new challenges on society. now countries have various ways of handling the care of their elderly. and while some are rising to the challenge, others are letting down their aging population. as a privately it is some of the most advanced 1st world countries who seem to be facing a crisis in their elderly care system. and depending on who they're talking to, as to whether the fault is on the government or society itself. now norway, sweden, and switzerland, or city high standard, with 100 percent pension coverage, as well as accommodation by public transport and great in home care incentives for families. meanwhile, countries like the united states, find themselves pushing elderly into residences with care insurance, being mainly privatized by large companies. now, canada, who has over the last decades and more funds and to drugs and hospitals, has now promised to spend $6000000000.00 over the next decade to address their

aging population money they plan to raise from taxes. but ultimately, the question for our country to decide is whether the best interest for their aging population is for care to be provided from within the family or by residential care and nursing house. we are joined now by joseph in karate, a broadcast journalist and media trader based in kenya. welcome and thank you for joining us. you know, just seeing the world health organization has had the number of seniors age, 65 and above could reach 1500000000 in the year 2050. in that year, the number of elderly will go more significant than the population of children. now one of the main reasons is medical advances, increasing life expectancy. so what are the main differences? do you see between elder care and western versus other societies? thank you so much for that question. maybe i need to start on

a bucket drop of the can known situation according to the can population 2019 report that was done in august 2019 the can. and population of the current moment stands about $47000000.00 canyons and the elderly of $65.00 eggs and above about 6 percent of the total population which and basically translate to about $1800000.00 of elderly people. there are more women than men in this category because across the board, there are more women than men in society. this coming. and then of course, the other thing is, but the life expectancy of men in kenya is know of them back to women by about 5 years. but so yes, the elder care in kenya is not like in the west where

families tech, they are old people to homes, masking homes basically because of our culture and traditions, the old people or the people living in the neighborhoods in the communities taken care of by their grandchildren by son and daughter, so i don't see about changing very much soon. so that is where we are at the moment. we will be living with our old people in the community. every young people move out and go out to move for walk. they will just have to get them a hand to help or patch them up with the other family members who are living within the community. i'm wondering about how it seems like in canyon families are kept. close elders are kept in the family home and close to family rather than putting into nursing homes. are there nursing homes in kenya? first off, and what would make a family choose to put their, their elder in

a nursing home rather than keep them in the house. okay, maybe what we need to know is but they are not really provisions for those nursing homes. and i was set up as a community, as the african african living, the extended family community care. we do not have that structure. we're having nursing homes for the old already been for people to be taken care of paper tech and cattle from their home, from their children, homes, from their households. collectively, by god's children or by bad sons and daughters and ad, the house handsome hand has gotten by the family. so my idea or having all the people being put into homes as a really know to come into there for you will still leave with you are all parents . and if you are not able to live with them, because maybe of moved out to look for green, a bus or maybe you out, but you are past or something. these are weighed,

they some kind of continued to where you get a handheld to help these old people they know at the place to take them as it was. how accommodating is the government when it comes to this? do they give us special motives, especially incentive, special understandings to families if they are taking care of their page, if they're taking care of their patriarch or their matriarch, it is expensive. yes, and government does support the old people. it is that it is provided for in government, social protection spaces. they get some little amount of money to for their upkeep. something like 2000 can and shillings that is like when she that is like $20.00. $20.00. you know? no, not $20.00 like $200.00 my household of an elderly bathroom. and what

happens is that they household mopped through the chiefs. it is known but being 2 or 3 elder people in these household. so that documented they are actually stand also a suspension given to vulnerable children all funds back to i'm not been but you done by the government. the money is very me got, it may not be enough, but the expectations that families should also cheap in and help about all the older people in the household. you know, i understand the elder is always the patriarch or the matriarch of the household. and what that says goes, does that still go when the parents are living with their adult children? do they still have that position of hierarchy over their children who are also adults themselves?

another thing that happens in african society not only to care, but most homes, but rockhill latino, the societies, but she'll kill men, have the same the society. and sometimes you find that the households or these homes have polygamy in them. you may find an old man has 2 or 3 wives, but basically they, they hold deep by the one the head of the whole. so it's like men have a higher hand or advantage over how their lives. i lived, we did not community more than that. women, and another thing is that should a mom that in the household that women may remain widows and may not say, as he mighty because basically most windows down to the mighty but men do marry, should you be having one wife and your wife, but even at the very ones,

most men will marry because they society or they are feeling is that a man cannot live alone, they have to get a woman with them. so then it so happens that most households appeal, they are the men, call the shots. so women, more like are subdued, but interestingly it's women who keep their homes going. that the backbone, they're the ones who walk. they're the ones who bought that we the children most times more than even 5 as all the men. you know, i'm really curious talking with you on this because is this how it's always been or have you seen culture and society change in any way from your grandparents generation to what you're seeing currently in the present? i mean, are you seeing society and pop culture affecting this sort of relationship?

yes, i think growing up, i think that's how soon it happened. nothing much as the culture traditions deeply embedded in societies that way people have been socialized away. socialization has taken place really nothing much has changed on the state as cool as not been chicken so much. so this is how it, i've been, i'm, this is how i was seeing it going. i don't know whether very soon or late april change, but that to how it does be in full, but the new laptop is being handed down from generation to generation. with very little variations made me depending on the set up being in different households. very, very interesting. josephine thank you so much for chatting. whether it's please stay with us because we're going to be right back and want to continue this conversation about global elder care with our guest stating ah huh.

ah hi, i'm rick sanchez and i'm here to play with you. whatever you do. do not watch my new show. certainly why watch something, but so different. pilots, little opinions that you won't get anywhere else. look of it, please do have the state department, the c i a weapon, breakers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead. i changed and whatever you do, don't want my show stay mainstream because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show was called director and pad, but again, but we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way you think. oh, welcome back. we're joined at once again by broadcast journalists, joseph inc. ronnie, out of

a kenya. now she is joined us talking about elder care throughout the world. thank you so much for joining us. josephine. thank you. and the previous segment we talked about society and culture causing potential changes within the structure of the family. do you think this is also changing with employment opportunities that might be coming up within society? thank you so much for that question. yes, i'm talking about elder care now globally and muscle locally at home. as african culture, we embedded in extended family through culture. i'm socialization over the years. so really not much has changed. so in my view, we have continued handing over generations on how we handle all the people, how we take care of them, how we live, we live within the community. and really we don't find it easy to let them go into

nursing homes or even out of our site. we live with them within our setups. and if it so happens that these nobody left or take care of them, then these are weighed back to the family comes together and looks like how hand him to help these old people. but they're not relinquished out to back to our common children. i mean, her common massey, mom, order home for them based know proration for that in our local setups. and really, i don't know. maybe that will change with time and maybe there some few, many more elderly homes, but and most times people live with their old people within the community. do you have very much transitioning happening with and it kenyon, families as young people finish school and they go up to get jobs?

do they usually move away from the home, maybe to more urban areas and in those situations, do they come back home when it's time to care for their parents? most times what happens, these young people, we leave the home to go out and look for jobs in the cities in downtown south, in the neighborhoods. but the fact that to that happens is they're still tied to the community. i scenario each of these a family home. these are father, probably these are my them, their children. once they grow, they will move to their households. and these parents wouldn't be left within their home, the 2 of them or 3 of them depending if my mom has want them to weiss but the young people and they are children with state of feel, but they need to take care of them. they're still feeling depth and because society expects you to do that kind of che expects you to do that. traditional expect you to do that. you cannot abandon your old people because that is how you have been

socialized. that's how you live. don't boon to in africa. is here to stay and you have to really tech, kill the old people and provide for them where you come. what happens when the parents start to have issues of dementia or other health issues? mental illness. how is that handled? are they able to stay in the home? oh then i think when that happens, like any, any conflict, basic problem because then in some instances some old my old people with soft last some of them will be desolate on, may be run into problems that they are both issues but to the community and administration normally deals with their issues like that maybe these i guess like laps, but she wouldn't be involved on maybe they would come and mitigate within the household

or in that home where these that problem. but ne basil to report that based on the shoe in i sat on home on maybe the neighbors would come and help. i'm the community . would it be bad that your brother's keeper? they watch out for each other. it's interesting. you talked us about how there is money that is provided for, for keeping the elderly in your home that's helped or support it. are there other government structures, other may be even n g o says step in for support. you know, we're finding here in the united states. cities increasingly are producing laws such as the pay parent act where people are paid. if they have to take off work, an employee can take up to 3 months off of work and be paid while they have to care for an elder. is there any serve that equivalent in kenya? ok, there are many ways that the government on the community comes into our system, the elder and maybe i should just talk about it and then government provisions

saturdays, the social protection funds, which the government and makes use to give their own people. one document that that would be not co lead as they chiefs would document any old people, one over $65.00. yeah. and i do need help, and most times they will deal with the cases of well they do an auditor by whom they see whether that home has a children or, or other members of the family. lou able to take care of those old people if they find that's been the case, is that about 30, then there would be least those old people for them to get some support. actually, you'll get about 2000 shillings a month, which is about $20.00 for assistance for the old people. that is our government filed and that has been passed by the by parliament. and it's normally distributed by the chiefs and their local administration. both that have records of the old

people. in other instances, the old people, those who are retired, remember that everybody gets older. you may have been a public sovereignty in your duties. and when you retired, 60 as based pension for you to, for you to carry on with your life. and so you are able to be paid and they continue having a lane, and then they have that interventions on medical probably. we have the national hospital insurance fun where you can register. anybody who needs help are for hospital funding. and you get deducted about $105.00 a month every month for you to be able to access any services in the hospital once you are sick and you are hospitalized. that is another way the government has come in. and then for other issues like people who are public, savannah,

so our state of the size and even in billy yours, lays our friend which you wanted beauty to, ah, called maximo social security fund. and once you are out over employment, then you have this money sent to you so that you are able to use it because it's like it was, you are savings for that period when you walk in as a public sub. and so those are some of the dimensions, but the government does that. but all schools on behind the base is a private insurance. you can have private insurance. so we're, we're from the different organizations or the different insurance companies. if you are northwest, so you are, children can get to insurance for you so that when you are seek you able to be attended from. so there are many dimensions through the government. i'm through a private sector, but try to out and continue to old people's lives. that's amazing, that's really,

really good and josephine, i want to thank you so much for joining us from kenya. you're broadcast journalist, me a trainer and obviously very knowledgeable, and how the elders are treated within your country. and i really thank you for sharing your expertise. thank you so much for the opportunity. this is an issue very dear to my heart. as my own family is struggling with how best to care for our elders is a picture of my family. and while there are multiple challenges every day, there's always been given that my mother and father would share in our home when the time came. as only child, this is something i sometimes not been easy, but i know i'm doing the right thing out of respect and love for everything. my parents have given to me. it was the same thing that my mother did for her parents, as well as her aunt who was able to have children. she modeled to me that this was how our family handled the care of our eldest generation. there are some extremely rewarding about having those who have already experienced so much life share

insights with the next generation. i'm greatly saddened by how my own government has not made it a priority to incentivize families to give as much care as possible in their own home. rather for those families who might not have the economic resources, they're almost forced to put their loved ones in a group home. sometimes these group homes are understaffed, and the resources provided to both the caregivers and the patients are extremely limited. i do believe this is a result of america being such a new country as evidenced by those families from other cultures who come to america, still preserved their tradition of carrying in house for their elders. bravo to all of those countries around the world who try everything they can't to invest in the family from the old. it's to the youngest, as each plays a very important role. and i do believe it isn't the best investment for societies future success. this has been year 360 view here. thanks for watching. ah

i ah, the kind of liberal agenda received the west now. yes, not me the we based, but it's that kind of ways i religious creed and they are trying to crowd out all sorts of real estate, practical objections to that vision of creating a kind of city on the hill on the news. ah ah

ah ah, china blames the west for escalating the ukraine conflicts and stays. washington is the steering its own geo political agenda while undermining beijing. ukrainian crisis has come to a critical juncture. we need to choose either to stop hostilities, restoring peace or to fuel the fire and expand the crisis, letting the situation get out of control conflicts, all sanctions and pressure cannot solve the problem. apparently stay run oil company wants to see russia for holding petroleum deliveries will train isley it may think, but i wanted to break the contract with.
