boundary we've been talking about for quite some time is continuing to affect portions of central and eastern china off toward the southwestern portions of china where we should v some photos coming out of in this entire region. flooding has been taking place the last few days raising the river levels and cause something landslides in the eastern portions of the gaungxi region. it's caused land slides blocking roadways and some highways and the local highway department had to call out these people to clear out one of these roads due to the landslide coming across and blocking traffic. and unfortunately, now going into your weekend. it does look like yet more rainfall is going to be on tap due to this boundary continuing to linger here. and also over towards the southern portions of japan, you also have that heavy rainfall in place, pushing off toward the east. meanwhile in the korean peninsula, parched conditions continue to remain in effect. good news. friday afternoon and saturday, look at this big blue mass from the west bringing welcomed rainfall. severe weather also could be accompanying that

a front that's been stretched out across the southern japanese islands, taiwan, and affecting eastern china the last several days. what we're going to see is a little bit of movement with this system. it's going to be starting to affect parts of western and central japan today. but unfortunately, it's not really shifting away from the southern japanese islands or taiwan so we'll see ongoing heavy rain in land that's already saturated. okinawa maybe seeing 120 to 150 millimeters of rain in a 24-hour period from this system. in some parts of okinawa, reports of 100 millimeters in the space of three hours. so very short time heavy rain. the potential for strong gusts which will bring those waves up as well. back in towards southern china, the same front could actually produce 250 millimeters of rain in the space of 24 hours. so we're talking very significant totals here. the southwest monsoon has really got going in some parts. it's quite slow moving up the indian peninsula at the moment. it has been bringing plenty of moisture into the eastern bay of bengal. northeastern india, bangladesh, my

eastern europe, south america. >> how has china managed to get a headstart on everybody else? >> in my book, i argued there are three pillars of the china quest for resources. these are reasons that western countries have acted traditionally in investment destinations. places like argentina, colombia, and so on. they have very deep pockets. they have over $3 trillion of capital. and they are using that to overpay for assets around the world. finally, one of the first parts of this campaign is that china is the marginal price setter for commodities. if you ask traders, they would argue that china is the marginal buyer, and therefore they set the price index for the resources around the world. >> it is there any way to control the supply? >> the more important question is we are seeing a clear delineation from the multi lateral chinese approach, very engaging, and an approach that is more myopic. china provides investment capital, trade, and capital flows. and those are used to support economies. in return, those economies are happy to engage, mortgage there assets -- their asse

major world power in the process of emergence and certainly the number one mainland far eastern asian power. and that china is clearly on the historical rise. the chinese on the other hand, have also adjusted to the reality that they're not going to be dominating the world in the near future. and that it is in their interest to be part of the system that already exists financial, monetary, economic, social, political. and that as their influence rises, they can then start changing that system to their own advantage to accommodate their interests more. and that we're intelligent enough to accept that. that's a big difference in my view between the current situation involving a rising new power and the situation that existed in europe prior to 1914. prior to world war i. when imperial germany was rising, but in different ways france, great britain, russia were not prepared to accept it and there was eventually a collision and explosion and a world war. >> our relationship with japan. >> i think it's close. it's good. japan is becoming an important not only economic and political partner, but increasingly sec
