Prison Guard Records Voter Intimidation in Zimbabwe A guard working for the Harare central jail in Zimbabwe recorded footage of voter intimidation and smuggled it out of the country when he fled with his family. STORY: Harare central jail a few days before last month's presidential run-off in Zimbabwe. This film - shot in secret by a prison guard - shows how he and his co-workers were summoned by their boss and told to fill in postal ballots in front of Zanu-PF activists. Guard Shepherd Yuda recording, the prison officers give their voter identification numbers to their superintendent, who guides them along in this excerpt of the piece for Guardian Films. [Documentary Voice-over]: (do not titlebar) "The atmosphere in the room seems benign but it's deceptive. Everyone voting knows that Shambira has the power to condemn them as MDC supporters. All secrecy is betrayed. Finally it is Shepherd Yuda's turn. He holds the ballot paper up to the camera and under the eyes of Superintendent Shambira, he has little choice but to vote for Mugabe. Watch how delicately Shambira helps. This is how the votes were rigged." [Shambira, Prison Superintendent]: "There is a number at the back of your voting paper; can you read it out to me?" [Sheperd Yuda, Prison Officer]: "00196165" [Documentary Voice Overlay]: "Watched as they mark their ballot." Guard Shepherd Yuda says he decided to shoot the film after the murder of his uncle, an opposition activist. [Sheperd Yuda, Prison Officer]: "I decided to leave Zimbabwe. It is a painful decision that I should leave." Also captured In his six days of secret filming, opposition official Tendai Biti in the red tracksuit, awaiting trial on charges of treason, here his leg irons being taken off. Yuda smuggled the film out of Zimbabwe as President Robert Mugabe was claiming victory with 90 per cent of the vote. Tags: Prison Guard Records Voter Intimidation in Zimbabwe election ntd ntdtv news

New Zealanders Say No to Anti-Asian Crime Thousands of New Zealanders took to the streets of Auckland today. They were protesting a spate of crimes against residents of Asian origin. Despite bitterly cold weather, an estimated fifteen thousand people turned out for the rally. Many were carrying anti-racism banners. The Asian Anti-Crime Group, which was formed three months ago, organized the protest. They are demanding tougher sentencing for convicted attackers. [Peter Low, Protest Organizer]: "We are not sleeping any more. We wake up. We are united to fight crime, the law for the change, tougher laws." Three people of Asian descent were murdered in violent attacks in June. According to a 2006 Census, there are more than 350,000 ethnic Asians living in this small island nation of four million people.

Japan asks: anybody out there? Is there life in outer space? Some of Japan's biggest observatories are teaming up in a fresh quest to find out. Although Japanese astronomers admit the odds are low. [Shinya Narusawa, Nish-Harima Astronomical Observatory]: "I think we have a fair chance of finding extraterrestrial civilization, but when it comes to probability, I have to admit that it is not very high. We will only be conducting this joint research for one week. And one week is just a blink of an eye compared to five million years since the human race evolved into what it is now. However, I think it is at least worth a try and we have to do this because when nothing is ventured, nothing is gained." The astronomical teams will spread across the country, using powerful telescopes and other equipment to try and detect any "unnatural" activity. The search for aliens and UFOs is something that fascinates many in Japan. This project, which gets underway in September, aims to remove any doubt by having several astronomers filming one planet over a number of nights. "Gliese 880," a planet in the Libra constellation, is most likely to go under the telescope. It's been singled out because it is orbiting around its sun's habitable zone—the place likely to have the best conditions for sustaining life like we have on Earth. Even though experts are realistic about the chances of finding another civilization, they say with all the terrible things going on in our world they hope the project will give people a chance to re-examine their lives.

Falun Gong Seeks Justice on American Soil CHAN: Now an update on the ongoing tensions in New York City's Flushing Chinatown. Falun Gong practitioners are still fighting for justice. Here's more. STORY: Queens Library, Flushing, the unlikely venue of communist propaganda fueled violence directed against Falun Gong practitioners in late May and throughout June. On Wednesday July 2nd, Falun Gong practitioners who had been assaulted met with city council member John Liu on the 3rd floor of Queens library. Although Mr. liu listened to Falun Gong practitioners stories for over two hours, he still declined to issue a public statement condemning the violence. A meeting was also held with council member Ellen Young on the same day. Although she clarified that a report in China Press, that stated that her self and council member Liu had reached an agreement with the police to limit the issuing of public rally permits to Falun Gong was not true, she also declined to issue a public statement condemning the violent attacks. Council member Tony Avella made a speech to condemn the violence in Flushing on June 14th. His speech was broadcast on Chinese television. [Tony Avella, Council Member]: "If we can prove that the Chinese government is behind the attacks, we will ask that the Chinese council general and those members of the embassy that have condoned the attacks to be expelled from this country." The reason why Council members Liu and Young have failed to follow Avella's example, to publicly condemn the violence against Falun Gong occurring on American soil, remains unclear. This is NTD New York. Tags: Falun Gong Seeks Justice on American Soil communist

Foyers détruits, indémnisations insuffisantes INTRODUCTION: Le bureau de construction chinois et les développeurs immobiliers à Rugao utilisent les voyous et tueurs locaux pour brutalement détruire des maisons. Voici un cas typique, dans la province de Jiangsu. NOUVELLE: Guangqun Wang, 77 ans, a essayé d'empêcher des criminels de détruire la maison de son fils. Il a été violemment battu et a souffert de sérieuses blessures. En entrevue à l'hôpital il a affirmé que les autorités locales sont derrière l'événement. [Guangqun Wang, Maison détruite]: "Lorsque je les ai vus, j'ai fermé ma porte et ne les ai pas laissés entrer. Ils ont alors utilisé des bâtons et des marteaux pour fracasser ma porte et essayer d'entrer." D'autres membres de la famille ont aussi été battus. [Chunrong Wang, Maison détruite]: "Dix-sept personnes ont été battues. La majorité des membres de ma famille a été battue. Certains ont été légèrement blessés, mais trois d'entre eux ont été blessés sévèrement et envoyés à l'hôpital. Mon père a été sérieusement blessé. Lorsqu'il a été envoyé à l'hôpital, il a souffert de chocs à plusieurs reprises." Un témoin croit que les voyous ont été embauchés par des représentants du PCC. [Ms. Zhang, Témoin]: "Ils utilisent ces gangsters et ces tueurs pour travailler pour eux. Tous les représentants du gouvernement se cachait derrière et demandaient aux travailleurs paysans et aux gangsters de battre les gens. Ils ont même battu les trois enfants de la famille de Chunlin Wang." La raison pour laquelle les voyous ont détruit la maison de Wang n'est pas claire, mais la famille se trouve maintenant dans une situation difficile. L'argent offert à Wang est trop peu pour acheter une nouvelle maison de la même grandeur que l'ancienne. NTD, Rugao, Chine.

Japan G8 Summit Security Prep Chen Security is tight on the northern Japanese city of Sapporo ahead of next week's G8 leaders summit. The beefed up security showed further signs of growing security jitters. Here's more. STORY: Police in Sapporo conducted a security training exercise on Friday morning. The security budget bottles out at $280 million U.S. dollars. That's $100 million more than was spent at the last summit in Germany. Japan is fearful of violence during the July 7-9 G8 summit. It has deployed 21,000 police officers on the northern island of Hokkaido, where the meeting will be held. All this security has baffled Sapporo residents. [Yoshihiro Manazuka, Sapporo Resident]: "I was driving in my car but was soon stuck in a traffic jam for more than 30 minutes. So I gave up and took a subway and just now got off it and I am heading to my office." [Keiko Shiba, Sapporo Resident]: "I took a bus which usually takes a few minutes and would not take that long, but it ended up taking more than one and a half hour." So far Japan has detained and questioned around 40 people, including journalists and academics. But many have been allowed to enter the country after several hours. Demonstrations are anticipated near the summit venue -- where some 1,000-plus protesters are expected to gather in three camp sites. Organizers of a peace rally in Sapporo ahead of the summit hope to draw 10,000 participants. But tight security and the sheer cost of traveling to the remote summit site is expected to dampen turnout compared to previous summits.

Market Report - Docomo Eyes Asian Phone Hook-ups ZHANG: Japan's top mobile phone player, NTT Docomo, is looking for overseas acquisitions amid tough competition at home. New CEO Ryuji Yamada says a recent 30 percent stake in a Bangladesh carrier is just the beginning, and that Docomo's attention will center on Asia. [Ryuji Yamada, CEO, Docomo]: "More than the U.S. or Europe our priority is the Asia-Pacific region, next is the Middle East and Africa, but first is Asia-Pacific." Docomo claims almost half of Japan's over 100 million cellphone users, earning $7.8 billion last year, but faces a tough fight with No.2 KDDI and with Softbank, which will sell Apple's iPhone. Not giving up on its own efforts to sell the iPhone, Yamada says he wants to see how well Apple's smartphone sells. [Ryuji Yamada, CEO, Docomo]: "We have phones for the e-mail culture, "one seg" multi-media and "wallet" transaction cellphones. Some customers will say 'I want an Apple' while others choose another, so in Japan I want to see how well this phone can sell." Docomo expects about $8 billion in profits this year, but sees greater international business as a way to help offset a mature market in Japan.

Betancourt Home at Last CHEN: After six years in captivity, former Colombian senator and presidential candidate Ingrid Betancourt was reunited with her children in a tearful, joyous reunion. It comes after yesterday's dramatic rescue orchestrated between the U.S. and Colombian governments. Here's more. STORY: Ingrid Betancourt, the symbol of rebel hostages in Colombia, hugged and wept with her children yesterday for the first time in six years. [Ingrid Betancourt, Rescued Hostage]: "I want to share with all of you this infinite luck to have my children next to me after seven years of not seeing them. I imagine this feels like nirvana, paradise." 46 year-old Betancourt says her captivity in secret camps, sometimes chained by the neck and desperate for medicine to relieve jungle illnesses, had driven her to think of suicide. Her son and daughter, Lorenzo and Melanie, flew from Paris with French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner as soon as they got news of their mother's rescue from the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). [Melanie Delloye, Betancourt's Daughter]: "I think these are the strongest and the most beautiful moments of our lives, for me and my brother, truly to have our beautiful mother here with us." Colombia says the rescue mission hinged on soldiers posing as members of a fictitious group apparently sympathetic to the rebels. Once the aircraft was in the air, the soldiers disarmed two guerrillas and informed the hostages that they were free. The three U.S. hostages - Keith Stansell, Marc Gonsalves and Thomas Howes - were greeted by the U.S. Ambassador to Colombia, before going home to their families. The bloodless rescue operation increases public confidence in Uribe, whose own father was killed in a botched FARC kidnapping two decades ago. The outlawed rebel army, once a 17,000-member force able to frequently attack major cities, has been driven back by Uribe into remote areas and now has about 9,000 combatants. The FARC, considered a terrorist organization by U.S. and European officials, still holds hundreds of other hostages.

Hitler Waxwork Sparks Controversy CHEN: The opening of a new Madam Tussaud's wax museum in Germany is causing quite some controversy. The Berlin Wax Museum has Adolf Hitler posing among other world leaders. Critics say Hitler's display could attract visits from neo-Nazis. Let's take a look. STORY: Waxworks of the rich and famous - waiting for visitors at Berlin's new Madame Tussaud's museum. But many will be surprised to see Adolf Hitler here. The decision to include a wax figure of the dictator who led Germany into World War Two has caused controversy. Critics say it's tasteless to show the man who masterminded the Holocaust, as his waxwork could attract neo-Nazis. But the museum says Hitler is shown as a broken man - and is a part of German history that visitors want to see. [Natalie Ruoss, Madame Tussuad's, Berlin]: "It was clear that Germans are really interested in history and also that when we present history, then quite obviously Hitler's figure has to be there." But there is a restriction - as it's a sensitive issue and it's illegal in Germany to show art glorifying the Nazis - the exhibit will be cordoned off so people won't be allowed to take photos next to Hitler. As in London's Madame Tussuad's - Hitler appears in the same section as other world leaders. Visitors to the new museum near the Brandenburg Gate will also be able to see waxworks like actor George Clooney and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Ukraine Showcases Neolithic Culture CHEN: In a small village of Ukraine, the ancient ways of a neolithic culture are re-enacted. Here's the story from NTD's Ukrainian team. STORY: The Trypillian festival takes place in Rzhyschiv, a small village near Ukraine's capital. This ancient civilization is named after Trypillia, a nearby village where 5,000 BC Neolithic settlements were found. And it is located along the Danube and Dnipro rivers. [Vladyslav Chabanuk, Archaeologist]: "The Trypillian culture existed on (present-day) Ukraine, Moldova and Hungary territories for over 1500 years. It took place six to five thousand years ago, maybe in even more remote times." During the festival, volunteers recreate the ancient Trypillian culture. Visitors may enjoy drumming, making pottery, building a house or some linen weaving. [Natalia Talagey, Weaver]: "If you look carefully, each thread is next to the other. And then when we push the shuttle, we can see the linen pattern." University students are having a go at ancient tapestry making. [Anastasia Cherevko, Kyiv University Student]: "I like it very much.... I have chosen the colors red, yellow and green. These colors are commonly found in nature, and when combined it makes people feel happy." The festival is completely free of alcohol, tobacco or drugs. [Oles Zhuravchyk, Festival Organizer]: "The main purpose of the festival is to send a message to young people -that today one can find traditional ways of spending free time as opposed to the urban ones." This year's festival theme is water and highlights how important it is for our planet. The festival, in the next three years, will focus on earth, fire and air consecutively. NTD, Kyiv, Ukraine.

Ride-em Cowboy, in Russia? CHEN: Residents in the Russian town of Obluchye have a wandering cow problem. To solve it they round-em-up and put them in a corral, Wild West style. STORY: Car congestion is a problem in many towns these days - but not here in Obluchye in the Russian Far East. Here they are suffering from cow congestion. Cows and sheep wander around blocking roads and disturbing traffic as well as trampling on the gardens. [Tamara Pshenichnikova, Obluchye Mayor]: "People say that they are busy working, that's why they open the gates in the morning, let the cow out and she wonders around where ever she wants, at garbage dumps and other places, I think that it is dangerous to drink milk from such a cow." So local authorities have borrowed a solution from the Wild West and introduced the urban cowboy. Minus the ten gallon hat these orange-jacketed herdsmen are paid to chase the cows and moo - ve them on. But that's not all because they also put the cows under arrest and drive them to a "Cow detention center." The head of the cow detention centre says they will only return them if the owners go through official channels. [Galina Rashkevich, Heads "Cow Detention Zone"]: "Yes, it is the same as with arrested cars. Without order [from the local administration] we will not give them back. This is done because we want our city to be clean and our children to play at playgrounds not spotted with cows' manure. So, both cows and sheep will be taken here, they will be milked, we have a special milkmaid. So we will return it [cow or sheep] to the owner only if he will have a special paper from the local administration." The scheme is having mixed results. This former owner was not prepared to rescue his cow from cow detention. [Leonid Zolotukhin, Cow Owner]: "I won't buy it back. Let's it die there, but I will not buy it back. I will not keep cattle anymore." As for the cows they are perhaps cleverer than they look. One glimpse of an orange jacket these days and they are off, giving the local residents an exciting spectacle even if it does involve a few trampled flower beds.

Flights Start from Taiwan to China CHEN: It seems relations between China and Taiwan might be a getting a little better. Today saw the first weekend flights begin between the political rivals in over six decades. Let's take a look. STORY: Top negotiators from China and Taiwan agreed last month to the weekend charter flights. The historic flights are ushering in the first wave of what could become millions of Chinese visitors to the island. An Air China flight took off from the Beijing airport at 8:30 a.m. local time and is scheduled to land at the Taoyuan International Airport at around 1:00 p.m. No regular direct flights, aside from a few special charters on selected holidays, have flown since 1949. Travelers say it has greatly reduced the amount of traveling time. [Fu Yi-jung, Traveler]: "Before, I had to ride two hours from Foshan to the port, two hours boat ride to Hong Kong, then wait another two hours to get on a flight, it is very troublesome." Others have put hope into the promising economic benefits the flights will bring. "This is extremely helpful, to the economy, to culture... very helpful." The first departure from Taiwan was a sold-out China Airlines flight to Shanghai. Twelve airlines, eight Taiwan airports and numerous travel agents have been flat out in the last month with bookings to Chinese cities of Beijing, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Shanghai and Xiamen. Opening Taiwan to mainland Chinese tourists is an important policy of the current government. Taiwanese president Ma Ying-jeou has pledged to revitalize the island's economy with closer trade and transit ties to China.

Floods Cause Chaos in India CHEN: Heavy rains in eastern India have turned one village into a giant pool. Locals in the state of Bihar say the state's government and local authorities are not doing enough to help them. Here's more on their situation. STORY: The floodwaters have inundated several major roads, throwing transport into chaos. Locals say this is making a mockery of the monsoon-preparation claims made by the state government and local authorities. [Ram Inder Singh, Flood Victim]: "For the last eight to ten days, we have been surrounded with water. They say that the government has sent some help but then our situation has not improved. This happens every year, and every year they say that the funds have been given, but these people eat away all of it and we remain in this flood-like situation. There is nothing to eat also." Residents also fear a possible outbreak of waterborne diseases. Locals say the situation is grim with necessary items for daily use becoming scarce. [Sarwan Paswan, Village Guard]: "The roads are submerged. The entire village is under water. People cannot commute. Goods and materials cannot be brought here and no government help has reached here till now." The floods have damaged standing crops, houses and other property. Every year the monsoon rains leave a trail of death and destruction across South Asia. Tags: NTD NTDTV news eastern-India Floods transport monsoon Victim South-Asia

Election Results Disappoint Mongolia's Poor CHEN: The Mongolian election result is a cause of concern for the millions of poor families hoping for a more stable future. Let's learn more about their situation. STORY: More than a million herding families take refuge in Mongolia's capital in hope of a better livelihood. But Ulan Bator's riots last weekend, sparked by suspected election vote-rigging, have made the poor lose hope of future economical stability. Poor families' only hope for a better future is to be part of an economic boom. So they are waiting for a new and stable government ready to exploit the country's vast reserves of minerals, coal and uranium. Mongolia relies heavily on neighboring Russia and China for its food and fuel needs. This is causing high inflation. [Sunduisuren Yadam, Taxi Driver]: "If the right people were elected into government, they would pay attention to the lives of ordinary people. This could be the government stabilizing the prices of petroleum for example. It would be good if they could take care of people's livelihoods." Mongolia is now under a state of emergency, and networks other than state television have been taken off the air. The capital is under curfew and alcohol sales are prohibited. Shop owner's say their businesses are affected. [Batjargal Nyamsambuu, Supermarket Owner]: "From 10 pm to 8 am, people should only be restricted from walking in the areas cordoned off, but not everyone should be stopped if they were just walking on the streets. This is just like the communist purges in the 1930s. Police are just arresting people at will." Members of Parliament are now discussing ways to prevent future political violence.

Many locals here say they do not get a fair share of the profits from its gas resources.

Sulfur Mining in Indonesia CHEN: Every day sulfur miners in Indonesia risk their health and their lives, just to survive. With limited job opportunities available, men turn to mining, which pays slightly more than farming. Here's more on the story. STORY: Mining is a brutal, labor intensive job, wherever you are, and whatever the substance. Asia's biggest volcanic crater, Kawah Ijen in East Java, is home to a few hundred miners who risk their lives daily to hand-mine sulfur... all for about two and a half cents a pound. Sounds like a pittance to many, but the money is more than the average pay in the vast Indonesian archipelago (pronounced ar ki pel ago). The enormous natural crater formed lake, where the sulfur is mined, is 220 yards deep and filled with steaming acid water, some 2,500 yards above sea level. The miners walk miles to get to the mines at the top of the crater, wearing hardly any protection. Some cough but they are paid by the weight and ignore the sulfurous smoke that turns their eyes red with water and blocks their noses making breathing a chore. [Sukirman, Sulfur Miner]: "The only job I can get is here. What can I do as there is no other choice?" The experienced ones take up to 200 pounds in baskets straddled over their shoulder on each trip to the collection center, some 12 miles below. Some 10 tons of sulfur are mined daily and each miner earns an average of $6 a day. [Arifin, Sulfur Miner]: "They pay us cash and it is higher than any farming job here. A farmer can get $1.60 a day but here we can get $6.40 a day, depending on our strength." Though the mining is back-breaking work and extended contact with sulphur dioxide could cause permanent lung damage, few of these miners will complain for fear of not being allowed to work on the crater.

NTD to Eutelsat: Re-Open Window of Truth to China CHAN: NTD has been broadcasting to mainland China via satellite since 2004. We provide the only uncensored Chinese TV news and programs available there, given the communist regime's tight media censorship. Our broadcasts have been made possible thanks to a contract with French satellite provider Eutelsat Communications. But since June 16th this year, our broadcasts to the mainland have stopped. Eutelsat claims there's a technical problem with its satellite transponders. But it may be not be that simple. Back in 2005, Eutelsat tried to cancel our satellite contract because of pressure from the Chinese regime. However, thanks to widespread support from our viewers and the U.S. government, Eutelsat eventually agreed to renew our contract. So our broadcasts to China continued. Just before Eutelsat allegedly signed a lucrative agreement with Chinese authorities last month, NTD's satellite broadcast mysteriously went black. And it comes at the worst possible time. Since the beginning of this year, numerous disasters have struck China. And the incompetence and corruption of the communist regime has been making these natural disasters worse. For example, large numbers of school children died needlessly in the May 12 earthquake because of shoddy school construction. Without NTD's watchdog broadcasts, these kinds of man-made disasters will be allowed to continue unchecked. And they will continue to cost countless lives. Out of a spirit of partnership, NTD has given Eutelsat ample time to resolve its so-called technical problems. But Eutelsat still refuses to answer our specific technical questions or restore our service. We are asking Eutelsat to follow international and European regulations, as well as its own charter, and immediately resume NTD's broadcast to China. We hope Eutelsat can see the long-term value of serving the true interests of 1.3 billion Chinese people. To learn more or to voice your support, you can visit NTDTV.com.
