he proposes a competent group of ngos, academics, professionals, and civic leaders to work alongside the government to oversee the fair distribution of the promised aid. he says it would not only rebuild beirut but build back public confidence in lebanon's leaders. sometimes these kind of crises can have the effect of a wake-up call and jolt a country to a change and reform. lebanon desperately needs such a shock to the system.

according to an ngo based in berlin which organise the logistics for this flight, he is in a stable conditions what they say. it seems he is still in the coma and i think we will not know for quite a while what caused this because he will treated by german doctors at a hospital around the corner from here. doctors have indicated they will not breach any confidentiality with patient—doctor agreements and they will also be very careful what they say to the press because this is an explosive issue. on the one hand, we have the supporters of mr navalny who say he has been poisoned and on the other we have the russian authorities who say there is no evidence of poison. this is not something german officials will want to turn into a political row. what german doctors so far have said is he was fit to fly and that now they will be doing tests to find out exactly what the cause of his condition is, so without more from german officials we do not know the cause behind this. the difficulty for the german government is that they do not want to be drawn into a row over how opposition activists are potent

make an awful lot of hong kong pro-democracy activists from colluluding with foreign governments or ngosof police raided the offices "apple daily" this morning. there is indignation in hong kongng and outrage at the arrest of jimmy lai . the hong kong police came out clearly in force and strangely at a time when hong kong is supposed to have stringent covid-19 social distancing restrictions. they came out in a closed space in large numbers. the democratic party is focused momore on jimmy lai as a member of the press and said this is a deterrent effect. he said this is the end of the free press in hong kong. they a also said they would cree a new department withihin to del with visas, particularly for foreign journalists. it seems pretty clear the e hong ko government is turning the screw on press freedoms and using the national security law and pointed out quite a number of media outlets were refused entry at apple daily today. they were told the police were not allowing in media outlets that obstructed them recently. china has imposed sanctions on 11 americans in a tit-for-tat move afte

international ngos were estimating about 70% of this population was in need of humanitarian aid. so much rage in the streets since october, because the key reasons for that is, simply put, corruption and government inefficiency. now on top of all of that, on top of also going through covid, you have something like this, this stockpile of ammonium nitrate, unsafely stored after repeated warnings to repeated governments, and nothing was done. and now lebanon is trying to have to rebuild, trying to pull at its emotional reserves to somehow get through this, and its financial ones. if you can't afford to put food on the table, how are you going to afford glass for your windows. begin cleaning up and putting your life back together again? what people are demanding is not necessarily just what the country's prime minister is promising, which is early elections. thet an entire revamp, an upheaval of this country's system of governance. because right now, as it has been for decades, since independence, it is deeply entrenched in sectarian politics. the presidency goes to the christians,
