and they fear that if future isis will be a great trap to south asia. how concerned, how prepared is the new pakistan, new government in pakistan to the challenge of isis in south asia? this is something that makes everyone join heads in terms of trying to deal with these spaces wherever they are. and particularly in afghanistan. because if you look at the ideology that isis sells and the narrative that they have, i have a feeling that their narrative resonates more in places and in countries where muslims are a minority and there is this, you know, perception of the persecution in countries like, for instance, in pakistan. there is very limited scope for them to basically find a toehold because the already -- the view, the narrative that they are building and projecting would not hold any ground. and the other is those ungoverned spaces that might exist that will give them the option of setting up the shops there. and that is one reason why everyone in the broader region is very keen to see peace return in afghanistan and similarly even on our side als

over a number of years today we bring you a few stories from south asia. here in delhi parliament behind me is considering a law that will ban a bubble divorce practiced by some indian muslims now this lower school kelley being called the triple bill is the new word for divorce and in the past muslim men have been able to divorce their vives merely by altering the word luck 3 times now the supreme court has already made this practice illegal but now the hindu nationalist p.d.p. government of prime minister narendra modi wants to enshrine this ban into law and this has set off a furious debate amongst people as to what mr modi's true intentions really are. man's calm exterior heights the trauma of a marriage domestic violence pushed out into depression and to the brink of suicide even now 8 years since the abuse she says she's deaf on one but it was after her husband a well educated man after 3 times that sabina's life and legal uncertainties uncertainties that the government's bill. hopes to do away with my view is that the government is doing commendable

it's something we live with in south asia it is very much part of our identity now you're quite critical about pakistan i mean one example was the installation i was at your exhibition earlier today and the one you've done about these 150000. laid out for a special occasion to to national day the national anthem and then it was the last moments of government incompetence if you like i wondered you do have a go at the authorities sometimes you safe passage star i mean i think it's more humor about power so it's about that address issues of power over civilians. is actually very verified and exclusive for the most part so i think. writers and filmmakers and journalists are the ones who are more at risk and if there are any the odd word you can still do a lot of stuff and it goes unnoticed by the authorities and i think there's humor in the work which is the most important things i think people people can find themselves laughing even if they know they have been criticized let's have a look at another video this is about border you see used that is quite a theme i mean again in the exhibiti

it's the barling of south asia. what does he get out d it's the darling of south asia. reduced tensions with the north? >> he gets tremendous benefit he has been a prime mover to revive the sunshine policy in the hopes north and south korea can end their enmity and do business together again. when the hanoi summit fell apart he took a terrible blow. this for him is a vindication of his policy. he as president cannot run again but his party has a great deal at stake and he has a great deal at stake in terms of his legacy. he has to be the happiest man in this entire group. because what it says is that his voice has been heard, and donald trump is absolutely substituting for him. a year ago he was standing on that spot shaking hands with kim jong-un. so i think for south korea, especially because relations with donald trump have been so tense at times. the united states says south korea isn't spending enough for putting our troops there. it's been tough on trade. so this is very positive for him and his approach. jon: the two men seem to be very affable. they spoke glowin

developed in one african country has managed to expand to multiple african countries and now it's in south asia and the middle east i think that demonstrates the degree to which african innovation can transform societies and solve problems that the rest of it will find baffling remember kind of in medicine it's not just an african problem it's been buffalo and they're well global authorities for many years now and for several decades the u.s. have all been trying to find solutions to this problem so to develop a solution 1st in ghana and then see to expand to other countries to my mind is a very important impact on its own secondly every day you have tens of thousands of people model a dozen countries checking if your medicines are generally are not and also not only knew that distance but in multiple other categories of life impacts and products and that i think is quite transfer me to now protecting people from dangerous drugs that's quite a noble intention how do you make money with it. so 1st of all the important point to highlight is that this service is delivered for free to consumers and

a global lass of young entrepreneurs is emerging from africa to south asia while political leaders my age or newger are shaping political agendas as they lead nations from central america to europe. onh the touch of her finger a screen, dissidents and democrats across the globe have been connected and empowered and voices want silenced or shunned, voices of women, religious, and ethnic minorities have been lifted to demand their rights and rightful place in society. [applause] so, faced with this moment of enormous -- challenges at great possibilities, it is not enough to say that we will not conduct foreign-policy by tweet norway be honest to promise we can restore an old order that cannot meet the realities of a new moment. democrats can no longer turn the clock back to the 1990's than republicans can return us to the 1950's. and we should not try. [applause] much was already broken when this president arrived, and he immediately set about smashing whatever remained. paradoxically, this opens a unique window in which to grapple with the world as it is in the 21st century with greate

. >> when you take a look at south asia, asean, what excites you the most when you look into the next0 years? >> i would have to say it is the next generation of young leaders and politics and business, like e-commerce and the economy. there is a next generation of young political leaders, young business leaders, young leaders in media entertainment, fashions, culinary, and they are waiting in the wings. that is what you are going to see across asia, asean, eight years to 12 years from now, and eight years, 12 years goes by in the snap of a finger. haslinda: what will the new leaders bring? how will they shape the face of asean going forward? >> there will be more of a southeast asian identity eight years or 12 years from now versus an indonesian identity, a thai identity, a filipino identity. we will see the emergence of southeast asia in the asean identity. >> i think young people, even though they don't think asean, in a way, they are really aseanized with the identification of being part of our region. i think the youth is the future of the region. each of us have our own identity

here's our south asia editor anbarasan ethirajan.hy it happened. 0n easter sunday, more than 250 people were killed by islamist extremists and the government admitted that there was intelligence warning from neighbouring india, at least on two occasions before the attacks happened, that there could be attacks by suspected islamist militants. so there was a lot of political blame game going on after the incident. both the president, maithripala sirisena, and the prime minister, ranil wickremesinghe they both belong to different parties and they were blaming each other and each group was blaming the other for the security lapses. now, the sri lankan parliament set up a parliamentary committee to investigate into lapses and why this happened and how this happened. and the sri lankan president is also the minister of defence, so all the security agencies come under him. and he doesn't want to send his officers to these committees because they are going to tell what happened and why the meetings were not held. so, one of these officials,

i really want to ask you if you're doing any women leadership programs in south asia, because i think there is a lot of need, especially women leaders over there, and there is kind of some disconnect i always see between men and women leaders in that area. so it's not very easy for women leaders to work over there. if you have a program and it is looked after, that is really going to help for the global beast, for soft power, for whatever. >> thank you. i will let you know that our largest group of alumni in the world is from pakistan. we have 25,000 alums, and i was recently in pakistan. i was there last july. we have a number of initiatives in pakistan, and i will share that i just saw 156 fulbrighters to the united states. i also spoke at their alumni conference. another thing we do in pakistan is we also work very strongly in the area of inclusion. we believe very much that people that are disabled should be part of society. i had a chance to meet some wonderful alums, a female, who came up to me who is blind. she wanted to thank me because she said -- yes. okay. i'm sorry, a fema

coming up, all the latest on the monsoon in south asia, and also a rare sighting of snow just to theught some flooding rains just recently, and it will continue to track up across the border into texas over the next 36 hours, and could be an issue. ahead of it, we could also see some sharp shards across north texas, oklahoma, and as far north as kansas. we‘ve got a weather front slicing across canada through the great lakes, but still in that southeast corner, it‘s all about the heat. not as extreme as it has been though, signs that the temperatures are starting to tumble a little. this is the latest satellite picture than for south asia, you can see the pre—monsoon shower cloud starting to build, as what has been potentially one of the driest pre—monsoon spells for 65 years. so we are desperate for some rain now, we‘ve got that extreme record—breaking heat in the far north and west as well. but signs that the rain is gathering. now the yellow lines denote the tracks at the time of the month really across the monsoon will take more than west. the blue line is currently where the mons

let me -- let me then focus on south asia, precisely because we are the center of the world tend to think less about other parts of the world, even parts of the world that have many more people and many more challenges. sop i want to turn to pakistan. and in particular kind of the underlying, you know, fundamental development which that pakistan is reportedly going to receive another package of support from the imf, the international monetary fund for $6 billion process. and i believe this is the 13th in the last 30 years of these bailouts. and so i guess the question is- or among the questions is, how do the repeated cycles of economic crisis and then imf assistance, how do they affect kind of the world's perceptions of kind of pakistan's importance and why and how to deal with pakistan? and also if you have a sense of how -- how this affects the dynamic within pakistan and kind of the sense of priorities within pakistan that there is so often this kind of challenge economic crisis and turning for help on the balance of payments? >> well, i think a lot of attention has been often given t

david rush is a professor at the national defense university near new university's near east south asia center pardon me sir 1st dick said he's a former director of the arabian peninsula operations at the pentagon and joins us via skype from maryland we appreciate your time very much so this additional 80001000 troops it's not a it's not a huge number but it's not insignificant what do you make of this. well we don't know what exactly the troops are but i think this is designed to be a measured step so what we're seeing is the united states announced $1500.00 troops turned out to be 90600 were staying there then you saw the iranian attack on the tankers so the measured response is a 1000 troops which as you say is a very small number it's telling that we don't know what this is so there was a rocket attack on a u.s. or iraqi base in taji so there could be some sort of anti missile artillery or radar there could be another ship or 2 there could be a u.s. coast guard port detachment or vessel detachment boarding parties but by and large when you look at the overall side of the u.s. milita
