but the other side looks different millions of brazilians live in poverty thirteen million of them are unemployed a rate of twelve percent the second highest in latin america and they're struggling with the ever increasing cost of living then there are the extremely high taxes which are supposed to flush money into the coffers of the state. but that's obviously not enough over the past five years the national debt has risen from around sixty percent of g.d.p. to a current level of almost ninety percent the reality which is already slipped by around twenty percent this year recently hit a two year low after years of recession the economy is beginning to pick up again but only very slightly. the incoming president has promised many things. he plans on selling state owned companies and using that money to pay off the state debt but the most important state owned corporations such as petro bonds and banker to brazil remain exempt. in addition he's declared war on massive corruption. i'm joined in the studio by vanessa fisher from a business who grew up in brazil so as a brazilian passport

about one hundred twenty million brazilians more than one in two are on whatsapp news spreads quickly on whatsapp groups and since it's coming from friends family or the candidates themselves it's up close feels personal and it's twenty four seven the very big up of me t.v. is still important to brazilian but the flow of information about the election is much greater on what side t.v. is still watched in places where the internet is not so popular among the poorest segments of the population but the internet social networks and especially once out have made the difference suffice for the fittings. and unfortunately a lot of it is misinformation a lot of noise ends up circulating people believe them because they're often from people close to them say family members yes it collate these messages these video that is how it ends up becoming credible but it's a lie so mad as political strategy is to spread fake needn't to spread lies i mean she just. pinning the fake news charge on board so not all personally is difficult but there's no doubt that some of his supporters have been producing

amy: i want to turn to former brazilian president or the former brazilian president lula himself, frontner until he was jailed. i spoke to him right before he went to jail. he was talking about the presidential candidate jair bolsonaro. he is a member of the federal congress. he was an army captain in the brazilian army. the information we have is he was expelled from the brazilian army. behavior is far right wing fascist. he is very much prejudiced against women, against blacks, against indigenous persons, against human rights. he believes that everything can be resolved with violence. so i don't think he has a future in brazilian politics. he has the right to run. .e speaks image to please a part of the society that is of the extreme right. but i don't believe the brazilian people have an interest in electing someone with his sort of behavior to serve as president of the republic. amy: do you think he was happy with marielle's death? >> i think so because he is preaching violence every day. he preaches violence. he believes those who defend human rights are doing a disservice to democ

many saying that this could be the moment that brazilians have voted for, in terms of change.n deliver on the promises he has made? there is a lot of expectation that he will do as you say, get rid of corrupt politics. a lot of his vote has been not really a vote exactly for him, but a vote against traditional politics, against mainstream political parties, and of course a vote of protest against the corruption that has wrecked the country, and especially the workers' party governments. i think that it will be, however, very hard for him to meet these expectations, in part because the political crisis is ongoing, and also because the economic situation is not a very good one. and we do not foresee quick changes in the short term. and brazilians really elected a symbol today, so now they call him a myth, and that's very, very high expectations for any politician ever, on the road. what now for the left in brazil, and the workers' party? well, it will have to rebuild itself. its main leader, lula, is in prison, and a lot of his charisma, a lot of his leadership, has been painted

protecting the reserve is really the job of the brazilian state but officials usually only get involved after the indigenous people have taken action attempts to press charges often go nowhere and state aid is a long time coming so should we and his men defend the forest as best they can with the care of the mother hen i want a forest to return to the way it was before and that's possible we just have to watch over it and drive out these invaders it's them. all around the extent of the destruction is clearly evident the trees have made way for grazing land. around three quarters of the amazon rain forest in the state of modern the hour has already been destroyed only within protected areas like the arab oil reserve this dense forest remain but even here more land has been deforested than almost any of the other indigenous territories and that has increased the already high risk of forest fires around five and a half thousand members of the tribe live in are a boy like she we and his family most live in modest circumstances from a bit of social assistance shui receives no compensation fo

something that's written in the brazilian flag i know many who fear that both are not of the election is the threat to democracy. i know told us he celebrates every election in brazil because he was banned from voting for twenty seven years during brazil's military rule. i cherish every election because it's our way of expressing l. selves and this election is more important than ever because of what's at stake and what's at stake is our democracy. this is the first defeat of the workers' party in sixteen years when former president won the presidency. what we saw was an awakening of people as to what was at play in the selection we are seeing precipice being put to the test we had twenty sixty one president dilma was being a beached we had the un for a president of president the failure to follow the un resolution we will forward with courage to take a listen to all corners of this country democracy is of value above all of us. has vowed to appoint former members of the military in cabinet and that he run the country with an iron fist analysts believe his election would present a cha
