got into this business at a very young age as a toddler and 'd actually a comedian a fellow named kwan he created a counseling service around the key pop industry he points out that again they are they are groomed as youth they have a very intensive training schedules even as young people they are cloistered in terms of their social circles so that they avoid getting themselves into in some type of trouble they're usually in groups like a boy band or girl band and that group provides their social networking they get into trouble often when their group has sort of. lost favor in the public become less popular and then they embark on a solo career and they they don't necessarily have that that group around them he also pointed out at a very young age in terms of their entertainment in terms of their talent their pursuing 2 things fame and money at the expense of perhaps why they got into performing in the 1st place which is enjoyment so is there any discussion then what should be done to protect and support these stars to prevent another tragedy from taking this if you can fact. that's a

mission fees alone set me back $29000.00 kwan's as a month but if i see. if i study materials on top of that we're talking $50000.00 quantas a month or so materials and books are expensive and particularly hard to come by in a province. $50000.00 pounds us that's about $1003.00 euros which goes towards test studies every month like more than $7000.00 students and one will attend private universities yes where tensions are high by young people in angola can't rely on the state to provide them with a stable future many of them will need to find out through this deeply flawed system. the government should take advantage of these young minds and invest more in the education sector education should be more accessible and affordable so that young people have a bright future ahead of them. now talking about career i have always wanted to be a broadcast journalist so it's good to be doing it now but for some start on the career of your dreams isn't so easy either come on iraq's young people in tanzania about the our experiences. in the year 2016 that then deputy d

and so that allows the members, as you saw republic kwans pushi back against the democratic resolution, and we suspect other members when they come back, when they reconvene, more questioning could go on for quite some time before they approve that rule, laying out the ground rules for the procedures of tomorrow's debate. in regards to tomorrow's debate, we are expecting that democrats will have the votes to impeach the president. more and more democrats, particularly in swing districts, people we've been watching very closely, the 31 democrats who represent districts that president trump won in 2016, they're increasingly siding with a notion that the president should be impeached. democrat after democrat is coming out and saying that they will, in fact, vote for impeachment. we have not heard of any defectors beyond the two democrats who said they would likely defect. jeff van drew, the republicdemo expected to switch to republican. and he repeatedly said he would not move forward on an impeachment inquiry, but when i caught up with him an hour ago, i said, are you going to vote again

thank you again supervisor mar and his legislative aide, daisye kwan for your work and leadership on this critical piece of legislation. thank you. and i hope that all of you will support this. >> thank you. next speaker. >> hello. my name is kong fan, with jobs for justice, the coalition of the labor community organizations in the city. and i'm here to support the jobbingjobshousing fit. one of the phrases that we hear over and over again is that we need to build, and build and build and it's almost like a magic spell, right? we say this enough and we'll solve the housing crisis. but before we fall under that spell we actually need to pause and to think about who are we building for. and for the first time this jobs housing report finally hospitals us to answer that key question. and the report that supervisor mar and the b.l.a. released showed us that low-wage workers are increasing almost as much as high-wage workers. we think of this boom and we think of a tech boom but that tech boom involves the janitors who clean those buildings and the restaurant workers who feed those folks.

. >> thank you, miss kwan. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon,. we represent over 6500 educators throughout the district. i believe that i speak not only -- for not only educators, about you for san franciscans, with overall the most recent elections in which 70% of voters said that affordable housing needs to be a priority. and this is really exciting for us, exciting for uasf. in particular that we're moving into the next phase. we're meeting with potential partners throughout the -- at the state level to bring in funding and develop funding sources to ensure that this project happens. and that we do have educator housing. the approval, as i said, was overwhelming. and what it means also for us and what it means to our community, this community in san francisco, they want educators, not only to teach, but they want them to lead in this community. because we understand if we don't have a stable working force, we understand the cost that it will happen at the school level, the instabilities that it would have. we see it happening day in and day ou

comes to engagement with china and the other one is my favorite philosopher walter the observations li kwan made which made a huge impression on me was the rise of china especially for is so dramatic that is not going to only require tactical balance of power adjustment it's going to change the system itself because of the sheer size and influence in the vision of china. and we feel that very much in southeast asia, that this is not just another rising power but this is going to change the rules of the game. we're beginning to feel that now as we enter what we can call a strategic inter-agency in east asia. walter talk to her every fascism is a failure of revolution. i'm not saying china is a fascist but what i'm trying to say is the confrontation and the tensions we see today in east asia is also very much a product of our inability to create a kantian perpetual peace to strong institutions that preserve pacifists and interaction. this is where coming from also slightly critical and i feel we could do much better job and ensuring we negotiate great power relationship with much more preroga
