yvonne: that did not happen.cent version requires the government to promote understanding. joining us now if the japan director for human rights watch on this very issue. it is so ironic, unity in diversity, japan can quite get any legislation protecting the community. why do you think there is such a hold up? >> this is very disappointing. the lgbtq community in japan has been fighting for this law for more than six years. in fact, close to 90% of the japanese population supports it. why it did not pass at the previous session which ended a week ago, is because a fraction of the party, the ruling party did not approve the law. there are in fact many parties supporting such a law, but a small portion did not. haslinda: we want to have our viewers. andrew yang dropping out of the mayoral race. we do not have any details, but andrew yang dropped out of the race. yvonne: bringing back the conversation on what we have been seeing from lawmakers. we talk about how they are mostly in their 70's, perhaps they have conse

yvonne: plenty of news in the last hour. we have talked about central banks, the be ok coming through saying they could see some great normalization or policy tightening as soon as this year. the first time the governor has admitted to that. so potentially it could be hiking or more -- or normalizing before the fed. that has been a theme in many markets. also when it comes to be boc injecting short term cash of 30 billion renminbi. $4.6 billion for the first time since march. a lot of news here in the last hour. we are seeing mixed pictures when it comes to equities. chinese equities lower by a fifth of 1%. the kospi up by 4/10 of 1% on the board. there is still contending on what the fed has been saying. we have the hawks speaking all last night saying how it looks. we could be seeing rate hikes as early as next year. we do see bond markets are reacting a little bit. we see a little bit of a lift off when it comes to yield. the chinese 10 year yield at 308. we continue to watch the yen as well. we are basically back to thos

yvonne: telling a cautionary tale.u see any other sectors or types of borrowers that are at risk? andrew: asset managers are scary because they are not transparent and they are leveraged to the banks. almost like an indirect form of loans. the other area i have talked about before is the local government financing vehicles which are people bank -- backed by local governments but there ir bond perspectives do not allow them to be backed by local governments. the property sector as a whole, as i said the leverage is coming down and a few red lines are beginning to bite so that is probably ok but those would be the ones i am most concerned about. yvonne: too tight at all together, you have evergrande and you mentioned redlines in the property sector, do you think 2021 is a potential inflection point for beijing to clean up its credit market? andrew: i think beijing is willing to accept some pain. i am writing something now about the biden plan. i am arguing that china does not have that much capacity to invest in new tech

yvonne: yeah.thinking about that linkin park song he is quoting " in the end, it doesn't even matter." what does this all mean? we mentioned the environmental concerns he flagged before when he roiled markets, suspending car purchases with it going. a lot of questions still about whether that means he's holding with bitcoin is going to change. that is the question mark right now. japan's top steelmaker is calling for urgent domestic price hikes, warning local manufacturers it risks falling behind. global steel prices have soared along with other commodities, but this company says prices in japan remain low, making it trailer overseas rivals. indonesia is considering canceling orders from airbus and reducing its fleet as it goes through an overhaul to survive the pandemic. sources say the airlines is considering cutting orders, and is talking to others about returning subjects. it is planning to seek a debt standstill and maybe force a bankruptcy if creditors do not approve a planned restructuring.

yvonne: it is a sad party of one. you are starting to see that the hawkish turn from the fed is really upending some of these after classes like commodities. all the inflation hedges that work if you were short dollar or long commodities, those are kind of going in the opposite direction right now. the deal curve also headed in the opposite direction. you saw the u.s.-30-year flattening sharply and commodities getting hit bad -- getting hit badly. the narrative seems to be if the fed is going to be left behind the curve, you don't need inflation hedges anymore. you do see rent lower right now, and you are seeing some of these grains like soybeans and gold wiping out the gains of 2021, the we are doing a little bit better in the asian session here today. the dollar still on pace for the longest winning streak we have seen since march 2020. we are holding onto some strength after we saw the biggest moves, falling most in more than four months. the hang seng up 100 65 points, but asian stocks still on track for their big

yvonne: you mentioned more options.rom an esd perspective, now you seem to have a very big voice to spur this movement when it comes to alternative plant-based seafood. what sort of products do you think could have the greatest impact, do you think? >> when it comes to seafood consumption, fish, of course, is a dominant part of it. that is the reason why with this launch, we are not just launching one type, but we are launching from tuna, salmon, two different kinds of fillets. burger form, and the deep-fried fish and chips style, and what we call the classic version, which worked very well for asian cuisine, and we leave it to the chefs to design how they want to cook it, if they put it in hot sauce for deep-fried and panfried, you name it. that's the reason why we come up with such a holistic and comprehensive range of products. it is because collectively, it can create the biggest impact and leave for consumers and chefs to decide what kind of products they would like. yvonne: i think haslinda is waiting for an omni
