00:16Even five days after the incident, the full extent of the damage is still unclear.

00:27More than 900 deaths have been confirmed so far.
00:30The number of people whose whereabouts are unknown has exceeded 4,700.
00:36This is a hospital located in the capital city, Kathmandu.
00:39The number of posters requesting information about missing persons is increasing day by day.
00:42It is increasing
00:46Hundreds of faces were posted on the hospital wall.
00:50We are appealing for information as the whereabouts of the person are unknown.
00:58Many people were at the police booth set up on the premises.
01:01crowd
01:02Report a family member or colleague you have lost contact with.
01:06I was
01:11This hospital treated 56 people, including those who suffered fractures after being swept away by the raging floodwaters.
01:16We accepted the patient.
01:18Access to the disaster-stricken areas is difficult, compared to past disasters.
01:21The number of patients being transported is still small.
01:43A major incident occurred on the 26th of this month near the border between Nepal and China.
01:47Simulated debris flow
01:49To date, 919 deaths have been confirmed in both countries and their whereabouts are unknown.
01:54The number of people who have lost their sense of direction has increased to approximately 1,700 in Nepal.
01:57The number of people has increased to 4,793.
02:40Intermittent rain is expected to continue in the area today.
02:43It has been reported that there is also a risk of secondary disasters.
02:51The temple near the capital Kathmandu has approximately 250 people
02:55It had become a shelter where people could take refuge.
03:00This is Mr. Karsantaman, who is living in temporary housing.
03:04On the morning of the 26th, while I was preparing breakfast at home, something suddenly happened.
03:09A loud noise like an explosion was heard and a mudslide hit the building.
03:14He said he witnessed the scene of the water being swept away.
03:18I grabbed my one-year-old son and hurried to higher ground.
03:22Mr. Taman
03:23The entire village where they lived was swept away in about 3 minutes.
03:27The whereabouts of her husband and more than 20 relatives are unknown.
03:49Next, let's look at the situation in Iran.
03:51The US and Iran have been separated for the first time in about a month.
03:55The direct attack was dodged.
03:57The Trump administration has shifted from military attacks to economic crackdowns.
04:01I'm shifting my focus.
04:03The instability of the situation has been highlighted once again.
04:09U.S. Central Command in Iran on the 31st local time
04:13Posts on social media
04:16It had become an imminent threat in the Strait of Hormuz.
04:19Against Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps' unwelcome forces
04:24They announced that they had taken limited and precise measures.
04:30According to government officials
04:31It is confirmed that they are preparing to launch rockets loaded with mines.
04:35Recognized
04:36Attack on launchers located on Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz
04:40They say that they did.
04:43In response, Iran said
04:45Assuming there were multiple casualties, including soldiers and civilians,
04:50In retaliation, the US military bases in Jordan
04:54Two places or
04:55They announced they attacked a base in the UAE (United Arab Emirates).
04:59I did.
05:01Direct attacks were exchanged between the United States and Iran.
05:04is
05:05It's been since the 29th of last month.
05:08In addition, Iranian media reported on the 31st
05:11As a statement from the Revolutionary Guard
05:14A large tanker was illegally passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
05:18-ga
05:18I reported that he stopped the controversy by mentioning two instances of dislike.
05:23Details have not been revealed.
05:27The Trump administration this month
05:28They announced they have launched large-scale economic sanctions against Iran.
05:32death
05:33They are shifting their focus from military attacks to economic pressure.
05:38but
05:39The instability surrounding the Strait of Hormuz
05:42This has become even more apparent.
05:47Summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, led by China and Russia
05:51but
05:51It starts today in Kyrgyzstan, Central Asia.
05:55In accordance with the meeting
05:57Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Putin
06:01but
06:01A summit meeting was held.
06:02This appears to be a reaffirmation of the unity between the two countries.
06:10The flags of the three countries were displayed in the central square, etc.
06:13A welcoming atmosphere is being created in Kyrgyzstan, Central Asia.
06:17In the city of Bishkek, the capital
06:21China and Russia are taking the lead in a wide range of areas, including security and economic cooperation.
06:26Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit to discuss a wide range of topics
06:29The meeting will be held over two days, starting today.
06:36According to the Kyrgyz Presidential Office, the leaders of 17 countries
06:39Attending the meeting, I discussed international and regional issues.
06:43This is the kind of opinion that is expected to be exchanged.
06:48On the occasion of the meeting, Chinese President Xi Jinping visited Kyrgyzstan.
06:52He met with President Zhabarov.
06:55According to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, the two leaders discussed high-level effective cooperation.
06:59They signed the treaty.
07:01Also, President Xi will meet with Russian President Putin tonight, Japan time.
07:09The leader and the head of state held a summit meeting and reaffirmed the unity between the two countries.
07:14It appears that...
07:17China is looking to strengthen its ties with Russia and Iran.
07:20It appears they want to confirm this and demonstrate their diplomatic influence.
07:24Masu
07:27Now, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.
07:33We have expanded our scope to include more countries and roles.
07:37The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation was initially established by China and Russia in Central Asia.
07:42It was launched in six countries, including Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
07:48In 2017, India and Pakistan, and in 2023, Iran.
07:53In 2018, Belarus joined, bringing the total number of member states to 10.
07:58The combined population of the world is approximately 3.4 billion.
08:03It accounts for 40% of the total.
08:06In addition, there are two observers and 15 dialogue partners.
08:11A total of 27 countries participated.
08:16At the summit held in Tianjin, China last year, the Shanghai Cooperation Agency
08:21It has been decided to establish a development bank in the future.
08:26Their roles have also expanded.
08:29Professor Dayi Bei of Renmin University of China, who specializes in Chinese diplomacy,
08:35The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation is implementing a new international order by China.
08:40I point out that it has become an important platform for expressing this.
08:44International order Formerly internationally dominated international norm Capital is a Western-led system
08:51Definitive
08:52Since the post-war unity, the effect of supporting countries and the resistance of superpowers
08:59Rarely published and completed
09:16From here on, we have reporter Baba from the China Bureau and Watanabe from the Moscow Bureau.
09:19We'll ask reporter Hen.
09:21First up is reporter Baba, who will be covering the story on location.
09:23What will be the focus of this meeting?
09:29Yes, what kind of messages have the leaders of various countries sent regarding the situation in Iran?
09:33The focus is on whether they will release the page.
09:35The meeting included a hardline stance against China, Russia, and the United States.
09:39Make your posture clearer
09:40At that time, countries like Iran kept their distance from the West.
09:44The leaders will gather.
09:46President Xi met with the President of Kyrgyzstan today.
09:49Together we oppose hegemonism and authoritarianism, and we support multilateralism.
09:53We want to continue to do so.
09:55He made a statement that appears to be directed at the United States.
10:00Experts have shown a certain degree of sympathy for Iran.
10:03death
10:04This will be an opportunity to showcase Shanghai Cooperation Flight's unique position.
10:07They point out that this is likely to happen.
10:40Meanwhile, in Moscow, reporter Watanabe
10:42How should we view Russia's intentions amidst the ongoing invasion of Ukraine?
10:46Are you there?
10:51President Putin, even if the invasion is prolonged...
10:55Russia has made it an important diplomatic force to show that it is not isolated.
11:00That's a good idea.
11:01In particular, during meetings with President Xi, they will emphasize their strong relationship.
11:07together
11:08We want to establish a presence for an international order that is different from that of Europe and America.
11:12It appears that...
11:14However, the member states are not united in their stance against Russia.
11:19Kazakh President Tokayev last month
11:23President Putin is in conflict over the invasion of Ukraine.
11:28They have made an unusual call for it to be frozen.
11:31Russia considers the former Soviet Union to be part of its sphere of influence.
11:36The key question is whether Central Asia can maintain its influence and influence.
11:41This is what it will be
11:44Mr. Baba, on the other hand, what are China's objectives?
11:52The meeting with President Trump scheduled for next month
11:56The aim is to solidify the position.
11:58This is because the United States is Iran's largest trading partner.
12:01They are also prepared to exert economic pressure on China, a country.
12:05China is on guard.
12:08Towards stabilizing relations with the United States, Russia and Iran
12:12We want to showcase our cooperation and demonstrate our diplomatic influence.
12:16That's my opinion.
12:17Also, China is currently under the leadership of the United States and others in the long term.
12:21The international order is unequal and should be altered to be more advantageous to one's own country.
12:26I would like to continue doing so.
12:28That's why some countries distance themselves from the United States, and global
12:32This meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation will be attended by countries from the South.
12:35The discussion is
12:36I see it as an excellent platform to present my own arguments.
12:40do
12:40The remarks made at tomorrow's summit will be closely watched.
12:46The Belgian Ministry of Defense in Franconia has announced that Japan will be under control from today.
12:49I visited and exchanged views with Defense Minister Koizumi.
12:53Prior to arriving in Japan, he gave an exclusive interview to NHK.
12:56The Franken Ministry of Defense
12:58Attempts to unilaterally change the status quo through force or intimidation
13:02To resist
13:03He said there was no other option but to unite.
13:21The first security issue cited by the Franken Ministry of Defense
13:25A new initiative to exchange information more closely with the Ministry of Defense.
13:29They have announced that they will be holding a strike this month.
13:58As China and Russia deepen their cooperation
14:01European countries are deploying warships and combat vessels to the Indo-Pacific region.
14:05Dispatch an aircraft
14:06They are successively strengthening cooperation with Japan.
14:12Meanwhile, regarding US President Trump...
14:40The Franken Ministry of Defense also seeks cooperation in the defense industry.
14:44I expressed my expectations.
15:13Indispensable to the defense industry
15:15There are common challenges regarding important minerals.
15:19China is targeting not only Japanese companies but also European companies.
15:23I mentioned that they are strengthening export restrictions on rare earth elements.
15:55This is Iceland in Northern Europe.
16:28These negotiations were suspended in 2013.
16:31Amidst these circumstances, the pro-EU coalition government that was formed the year before last...
16:35This is why a national referendum was held.
16:40So why is a referendum in a small country with a population of 400,000 attracting attention?
16:45Is that so?
16:45First, those in favor of resuming negotiations argued that
16:50Security.
16:51The Russian invasion of Ukraine
16:54Security concerns are also growing in Iceland.
16:58This Iceland
16:59Although it is a member of NATO
17:02It does not possess its own military.
17:05For this reason, NATO, in particular, has a defense cooperation relationship with them.
17:09It can be said that we are highly dependent on the United States.
17:12However, recently President Trump has been to NATO
17:15Repeatedly making comments in a meeting-like manner
17:18neighboring autonomous territory of Denmark
17:20Because there have been statements claiming to possess Greenland.
17:25The desire to reduce excessive dependence on America
17:29A certain chapter
17:31Russia and China are also sources of concern.
17:36Iceland is located in a strategic point in the North Atlantic.
17:40Located right in the heart of the sea area known as the GIUK Gap
17:45It is placed there.
17:46Russian submarines and others are located here.
17:48On the route that is said to pass through when heading out into the North Atlantic
17:52Concerns about these activities have been growing in recent years.
17:57China also uses this sea transport route
18:00In addition to showing an emphasis on the Arctic Circle,
18:02They are also strengthening their involvement in resource development.
18:07Therefore, the United States, Russia, and China are involved in the Arctic region.
18:10In preparation for increased competition
18:14We should strengthen our ties with the EU.
18:17Those in favor were making that argument.
18:21On the other hand, the opposition was advocating for the protection of fisheries.
18:25One year until July of this year
18:28What is the proportion of seafood and farmed fish in exports?
18:32Nearly half, 47%
18:35However, if they join the EU
18:37Because it is managed under a common fisheries policy
18:40Regarding the management of fishery resources within one's own country
18:44Making a decision becomes difficult.
18:47Also, Iceland from the 1950s to the 1970s
18:52While repeatedly clashing with Britain
18:55There is a history of protecting the fishing grounds off the coast of Iceland.
19:00This area is a fishing ground where a large amount of cod is caught.
19:04The conflict has also been known as the Cod Wars.
19:08Given this background, fishing is important to the people of Iceland.
19:11Not just an industry
19:14It could be said to be a symbol of national sovereignty.
19:20When I went to Iceland, I also went to the capital, Reykjavik.
19:22There were a bunch of display panels about the Cod Wars.
19:25I vividly remember how proud he was of that victory.
19:28That just goes to show how important fishing really is.
19:31Okay, so what were the results of the referendum?
19:3647.2% are in favor of resuming negotiations.
19:40Opposition was more prevalent, with 52.8% voting against.
19:46And the results have one distinctive feature.
19:49Let's look at it by electoral district.
19:51Opposition in all constituencies except the capital, Reykjabuk.
19:56The number has increased.
19:58In other words, urban areas that are more likely to benefit from globalization
20:01Local areas are concerned about the impact on the new EU regional industries.
20:06The situation is one of skepticism towards the EU.
20:09In recent years, this has also been observed in other European countries.
20:12This is also a common phenomenon.
20:15Politicians who are skeptical of the EU regarding the results
20:18I posted this on X.
20:20First, the leader of Reform UK, Nigel Farage.
20:24Congratulations to Iceland on their vote to maintain their independence.
20:28tower
20:30And Marine Le Pen, former leader of France's National Rally party.
20:34EU membership is important for European democracy
20:38It reminded me that this is not a guaranteed future.
20:41This is how I posted it.
20:44Even as the international situation changes, the people of Iceland
20:48The right to free fishing is more important than the benefits of integration with the EU.
20:52or
20:52It could be said that they chose to prioritize national sovereignty.
20:57However, as competition for the Arctic region intensifies
21:01How to distance ourselves from the EU
21:03The questions will continue to be posed to Iceland.
21:06It might be a question.
21:13Ferrari of Italy created the first electric car.
21:16Luce
21:18The special edition car is going up for a charity auction.
21:21re
21:21This will be the highest price ever paid for a new car at auction.
21:24It was purchased by an American billionaire for approximately 6.4 billion yen.
21:30I got it.
21:32It accelerates from 0 km/h to 100 km/h in just 2.5 seconds.
21:38Because it is driven by four electric motors
21:40That famous engine sound is not there.
21:46It was also unveiled to Pope Leo XIV in May.
21:50Luce
21:51The selling price is around 100 million yen.
21:53Apparently, 500 units have already been reserved.
22:01nice to meet you
22:04Born in June at the Tennessee Aquarium in the United States.
22:08baby penguin
22:10Full of energy and cries a lot, etc.
22:14Another pair of chicks were born at this aquarium last month.
22:19The two birds are growing up healthy and strong.
22:21They join the group at around two months old.
22:24Before that, you must pass a swimming test.
22:30Aquariums are buzzing with excitement over the penguin baby boom.
22:33We are planning to hold an event soon to decide on a name.
23:07The first is connecting Los Angeles and Kansai International Airport in Osaka.
23:11Route
23:12It is scheduled to run daily from March next year.
23:15And the second is
23:17A route connecting San Francisco and Naha, Okinawa.
23:20They plan to operate three round trips per week starting in March of next year.
23:24This company had previously announced plans to expand its flights to Japan.
23:29That was the first direct train connecting mainland America and Hokkaido.
23:34The route will connect San Francisco and New Chitose.
23:37Three round trips per week from December of this year to March of next year.
23:41Furthermore, a new route connecting Chicago and Narita will be launched every day from October of this year.
23:47It is scheduled to operate daily.
23:49In this way, we will open a total of four routes to Japan over the next year.
23:53That's how it will turn out.
23:55United Airlines is benefiting from the weak yen.
23:58In addition
23:59Visit Japan's regional cities for more unique experiences.
24:04They explain that there is a growing demand for this.
24:07Now other airlines are also making moves.
24:09In addition, major airline Delta Air Lines will be opening a new flight in March next year in Seattle.
24:14A route connecting London and Narita.
24:15American Airlines will also be opening flights between Chicago and Narita next March.
24:20We plan to open routes connecting these locations.
24:24According to the Japan National Tourism Organization
24:26A trip from the United States to Japan between January and last month of this year
24:31The person
24:31The estimated number is approximately 2.1 million, compared to the same period last year.
24:35All have increased by more than 6%.
24:39The opening of direct flights will further increase the number of tourists from the United States.
24:43It looks like it will be added.
24:45Next up is Asia.
24:48Voting is underway for the new president of the ADB (Asian Development Bank).
24:52I am
24:53The Asian Development Bank was originally established in 1966 under the leadership of Japan and the United States.
24:58in
24:58Infrastructure development and improvement of living standards in the Asia-Pacific region
25:02This bank was established with the above purposes in mind.
25:05The results of the election to choose the next party president will be announced tomorrow.
25:11The person seeking re-election is the current party president, Masato Kanda.
25:16New appointments by member countries or regions with only one candidate
25:19Voting is underway.
25:22Mr. Kanda joined the Ministry of Finance at the time in 1987.
25:26For the three years leading up to the year before last, I served as a financial officer at the Ministry of Finance.
25:31Amid a historically weak yen
25:33At the market conference ceremony, which totaled over 24 trillion yen
25:36He is also known as Mr. Yen of the Reiwa era.
25:41If he is trusted to become the next president
25:43This is an urgent issue at hand.
25:45Countries that have been economically affected by the situation in Iran
25:48How to provide support?
25:49Their skills will be put to the test.
25:53And finally, it's China.
25:54The practical application of robots is progressing.
25:57To improve the performance of humanoid robots
25:59A sports day was held in Beijing.
26:02This is the second year we've held this event.
26:04Performance has improved significantly in the past year.
26:08In track and field, he finally broke the human world record for the 100m by nearly a second.
26:12Over
26:13To achieve this sub-8 second time,
26:14It's undergoing a major evolution.
26:21This year marks the second time that the Beijing Municipal Government and others have hosted the humanoid robot event.
26:25The sports day
26:30Companies from 16 countries, including China and Japan, developed the product.
26:35robot
26:36Over 2000 cars participated.
26:38That number has quadrupled compared to last year.
26:47This is last year's soccer
26:49Robots gather around a ball and fall over one after another, etc.
26:53He looked rather awkward.
26:57This year the movements are smoother.
27:03He scored a penalty kick brilliantly.
27:07They even perform ball tricks.
27:10We observed improvements in technology.
27:16What particularly thrilled the crowd was the 100-meter-high rooftop performance.
27:20Last year's winning time was 21.50 seconds.
27:24This year, each robot will show a flashback.
27:31In the final, a Chinese robot won with a time of 8.64 seconds.
27:36Usain Bolt's world record of 9.58 seconds
27:40A series of robots that far surpassed the previous ones emerged.
27:44Some robots get carried away and crash into walls.
27:47There are still challenges to overcome.
27:49There were cries of surprise from the audience.
28:06From Japan, the IT giant GMO Internet Group is participating.
28:11Compared to Chinese robots, their movements are slower.
28:14In the 400-meter track and field preliminaries, he ran in the 1 minute 55 second range.
28:19I was unable to finish the semi-final race.
28:24In addition, there are also events designed for business use.
28:30This is intended for a factory.
28:32Carry the basket to the designated location.
28:34We competed on stability and time.
28:39In China, the practical application of robots is progressing in some areas.
28:43They are competing on the performance of their working robots.
28:48Furthermore, outside of competitions
29:07When you order using the touch panel
29:13Robots deliver the products.
29:19According to Chinese media
29:21The robot developed by this company
29:23Already in Beijing and Shanghai, etc.
29:25It is said to have been implemented in more than 150 stores in over 20 cities.
29:33Japanese robot VTRs were struggling,
29:35Actually, I placed highly in another event.
29:38Companies can use the data and insights gained from this to...
29:41We hope to use this experience to further our development efforts.
29:44And the Chinese government
29:45The five-year plan outlines the national strategic guidelines starting this year.
29:48Humanoid robots and similar technologies are positioned as a new growth industry.
29:52Support development
29:54The number of humanoid robots shipped worldwide last year was
29:57It is estimated that over 90% of the products were made in China.
30:00Its presence is striking.
30:02The United States is wary of this.
30:04The US government last month
30:06With China in mind
30:08For data collection for foreign intelligence agencies
30:10There is a risk that it may be used, etc.
30:13Humanoid robots to be manufactured in the future
30:15We have announced an import ban.
30:18China is demanding a withdrawal.
30:20The outcome of the development competition is attracting attention.
30:30Next up, the spotlight
30:31The number of foreigners living in Japan is increasing.
30:37Foreign nationals with a valid residence status
30:39As of the end of last year, there were over 4.12 million people.
30:42It has increased 1.5 times in the last four years.
30:46Consequently, living in Japan
30:48The number of Muslims with foreign citizenship is also increasing.
30:52As of January last year, there were approximately 360,000 people.
30:55It has increased about sixfold in the last 25 years.
30:59Mosques, Islamic places of worship
31:01It increased by approximately 10 times.
31:03There are over 160 locations nationwide.
31:07In conjunction with this, the mosques
31:09Friction is also occurring in various places.
31:14Amid
31:15In Ebetsu City, Hokkaido
31:16Japanese and Muslims
31:18To coexist
31:19Let's deepen our mutual understanding
31:22The initiative has begun.
31:26Ebetsu City, Hokkaido
31:29Population approximately 120,000
31:31As a commuter town for Sapporo
31:33It has developed
31:36Hokkaido's largest
31:38There is a used car auction venue.
31:41For the past 10 years or so
31:43Exporting used cars from Japan to overseas
31:46The number of Pakistani immigrants is increasing.
31:51I am registered as a resident of Ebetsu City.
31:53There are over 240 Pakistanis.
31:57Most have obtained a business license.
32:00Running a used car trading company
32:03I work as an engineer.
32:11These Pakistanis frequent
32:13The mosque in February of this year
32:15For Muslims
32:17During the sacred period of Ramadan
32:20It was completely destroyed by fire.
32:27First discoverer
32:29He is the leader of the mosque.
32:48In just half a month
32:50Mosques and Pakistanis
32:53Companies that are managed, etc.
32:54Three fires occurred.
32:58He was involved in all of the incidents.
33:00A 37-year-old man
33:02He was arrested and indicted.
33:05In response to police questioning
33:08I thought foreigners were doing bad things.
33:11He reportedly made statements such as the above.
33:19To Pakistanis
33:20The harassment started when
33:22last year
33:24For Pakistani companies, etc.
33:27Fireworks were launched, etc.
33:29A series of such acts occurred.
33:33The trigger was
33:35Mosques and Pakistani companies
33:38They pointed out that it was an illegal building.
33:40It was a video.
33:44These buildings
33:46Buildings are severely restricted.
33:49In urban development control area
33:51Without obtaining the necessary permission in advance
33:54It was built.
34:00Responsible for the operation of the mosque
34:02One of the representatives
34:03This is Imran Muhammad.
34:08From a real estate company in Sapporo
34:10Purchase land
34:12December 2020
34:14We opened a mosque.
34:18At that time
34:18Regarding building regulations in urban development control areas
34:22They say they didn't fully understand it.
34:42Regarding building regulations in urban development control areas
34:46We are publicizing this through signs and newsletters.
34:50The first to start providing information and instruction in foreign languages ​​was...
34:53It was five years after the mosque was founded.
34:58However, local residents
35:00There are also calls for people to learn about Japanese law on their own.
35:06As the saying goes, "It's only natural that five people should be included."
35:10A life lived by the rules
35:13What you should aim for is
35:15I'm very grateful.
35:21This April, two months after the fire
35:25Local residents and Pakistanis
35:27A forum for discussion was established for the first time.
35:34One of the organizers
35:35Soban Farooq
35:38Instead of blindly accepting information from the internet
35:41We wanted people to get to know us directly.
35:4860 people gathered at the venue.
35:52Soban said that mosques are for Muslims
35:56I conveyed that it is an important place.
36:18Mr. Murakami, the head of the local community association, also participated in the meeting.
36:26Murakami-san is a Pakistani man living in the same area.
36:30I don't know what they're doing.
36:33I conveyed that many people are feeling anxious.
36:37There is a Pakistani car dismantling business.
36:40The problem is that the people of Pakistan are in our neighborhood association.
36:43To be honest, they haven't joined.
36:46If something happens, then that's how you should interact with them.
36:48We cooperated with each other, but there was a weird guy there or something.
36:52I think we can understand each other.
36:56Two months after the meeting
36:59For the first time, a Pakistani person will be participating in the neighborhood association.
37:06Some people didn't want to have anything to do with Pakistanis.
37:10Mr. Murakami called upon the members of the neighborhood association.
37:1380% participated.
37:28Murakami proposed creating a contact network.
37:33Who is doing what and where?
37:36I thought I could grasp it.
38:01The story further involves a Pakistani owner
38:05This extended to other illegal constructions as well.
38:19If there weren't this many people, it wouldn't concern me.
38:23I don't think I'll be asking that question anymore.
38:26Would you consider joining the neighborhood association?
38:28Yes, that's it, the neighborhood association.
38:31No, that's just my opinion.
38:32I don't know what the chairman said.
38:37Can I join the company?
38:39You can also get in through the company.
38:45In the future, the neighborhood association will be able to educate Pakistanis to government officials and experts.
38:50Where to connect
38:51We have decided to discuss the issue of illegal construction.
39:00The mosque that was hit by fire has been searching for a new location since last year.
39:04but
39:05June this year
39:07After consulting with Ebetsu City
39:09We moved to a legal location.
39:14Fifteen people, including residents, were invited to the mosque that had been relocated that day.
39:23The reasons why the Pakistani people moved here and their jobs
39:28Content
39:28He enthusiastically explained things like the supervision of Islamic principles.
39:44I realized that there were many parts of it that resonated with me on an emotional level.
39:48If more Japanese people could understand the inner workings of the heart
39:53I think it could lead to better coexistence.
39:56They simply don't know what's happening.
40:00There are various opinions and concerns depending on the region.
40:04I was doing things like that, but
40:05I would like to increase our interactions in the future.
40:12Regarding the formal membership of Pakistanis in this neighborhood association...
40:16This means that consent has not yet been obtained from all residents.
40:21However this summer
40:22It was the first time that Pakistanis participated in the local community festival.
40:27Efforts to understand each other continue.
40:31On the other hand, looking at the whole country...
40:34Conflicts over mosques are occurring in various places.
40:37Recently, in Fujisawa City, Kanagawa Prefecture and Taito Ward, Tokyo
40:42A protest movement arose against the mosque construction plan.
40:46Also, in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture
40:48A mosque was constructed without permission within an urban development control area.
40:52As
40:53The city is demanding its removal.
40:57Specializing in local government policies regarding foreign residents
40:59According to Associate Professor Takahiko Ueno of Tsuru Bunka University:
41:03In the case of Ebetsu City, they tried to rectify the illegal situation.
41:07Local residents and foreigners working together
41:10In terms of taking concrete steps towards a solution
41:12It can be said to be advanced.
41:15However, these actions should not be left solely to the residents.
41:19They say that support from local governments is essential.
41:23Many local governments across the country have consultation services for foreigners, but
41:27Many of them were created with the aim of promoting cultural exchange.
41:31Local governments that are actively working to solve the problems
41:34teeth
41:34The reality is that there aren't many.
41:38Local governments should anticipate potential problems that may arise in their communities in the future.
41:42It is said that proactive action is required.
41:46The number of foreigners living in Japan is steadily increasing.
41:50Both Japanese and foreigners feel anxiety, dissatisfaction, and distrust.
41:55How can we enforce this without letting it build up?
41:58This is an urgent issue.
42:00What are your thoughts?
42:02Please send us your message by scanning the QR code on the left side of the screen.
42:47Local media reported, citing officials.
42:50Seven people have died so far.
42:53It has been reported that 23 people are missing.
42:58The ferry began to take on water shortly after it departed.
43:03Local authorities are investigating the cause in detail.
43:09Today we have a question from a high school sophomore in their teens.
43:12Ukraine attacks Russian logistics facilities
43:15I think this is causing problems in the lives of Russian citizens.
43:19Are there no voices from the Russian people calling for an end to the war?
43:25I think the number of people who want the war to end is increasing.
43:28I think so, but whether I can actually say it out loud is another matter, isn't it?
43:32In Russia, in the worst-case scenario, you could even be arrested.
43:35The question is whether that desire to stop will escalate to the point of harming society.
43:39Ka
43:39I guess it's still a bit unclear.
43:44Tomorrow's feature will be on the Venice International Film Festival, which opens on the 2nd.
43:47festival
43:47It has been nominated in the competition section.
43:49This is about the films of director Shinya Tsukamoto.
