【ウガンダ：土砂崩れで113名行方不明】
15名死亡確認（うち6名子供）。40軒ほどが流されたようで、そりゃあそのくらいの数字にはなる。
BBC At least 113 people missing after Uganda landslide - police 17 hours ago
Danai Nesta Kupemba in London & Swaibu Ibrahim in Kampala
「At least 113 people are missing, and at least 15 people are known to have died after a landslide in eastern Uganda, the police say.
The landslides triggered by heavy rainfall affected multiple villages in the Bulambuli district, about 280 km (178 miles) from the capital Kampala.
A rescue operation is underway after at least 40 houses were swept away, the Ugandan Red Cross Society said on X.」
どうも東アフリカ全体に豪雨が降りがちな昨今。こういう例はメモのいとまがないほどに出そうではある。
【インド：故郷を捨ててもきれいな空気の土地に】
BBC The families fleeing Delhi to escape deadly smog 1 day ago
Neyaz Farooquee
デリーに生まれ育ち、故郷を愛し、そこで成功した人物であっても―娘が喘息を患う程度に悪化した空気のなかとどまることはできない―2000kmも離れた土地、ゴアに移動。
「In November 2022, Mr Bhasin's daughter was diagnosed with asthma. Earlier this year, he and his family left for the coastal state of Goa, around 2,000km (1,242 miles) away, where they live now.
It's not a choice available to millions in Delhi, who cannot leave their livelihoods and are forced to live through the smog.」
ただそれ、ふつーの収入の人には不可能だよねえという、そんなお話でもある。
「Sarita Devi migrated to Delhi from Patna city years ago for work. She irons clothes for a living, spending hours outdoors with her cart through winter and summer.
“I can’t go back to Patna because I can’t earn money there. And even if I did go, it wouldn’t change much for me,” Ms Devi says.」
何しろデリーには仕事がある。パトナというから、日本人にも知られるほどの結構な都市のはず。そこでさえ食えないというのでデリーに出てきて―帰らない。
…まあ、みんながみんなそう考えるからこそデリーに集中するのでもあろうが。
となると、地方に一定程度の人口を張り付けにするような―中央政府による方向付けが求められようか。
わかりやすくは地方公務員の配置。軍の駐屯地の設定。そういう、まあまあの人数が各個に固定されるような、そんな職の配置だ…。

BBC Childcare worker who abused more than 60 girls jailed for life 4 hours ago
Tiffanie Turnbull
被告は47歳。2003年から2022年（逮捕）まで、罪状は数えも数えて1600件以上。流石に扱いきれないわけで、自供が得られて確実なところ307件ほどに絞った模様。
「A former childcare worker dubbed "one of Australia's worst paedophiles" has been sentenced to life in prison for raping and sexually abusing almost 70 girls.
Ashley Paul Griffith, 47, confessed to 307 offences committed at childcare centres in the Australian state of Queensland and overseas between 2003 and 2022. His victims were aged between one and seven.」
「Griffith was first arrested in August 2022 by the Australian Federal Police, and a year later charged with more than 1,600 child sex offences. Most of these were eventually dropped.」
強姦28件。
「He pleaded guilty to 28 counts of rape, almost 200 charges relating to indecent treatment of a child, and several related to making and sharing child exploitation material.
Four of the girls who featured in his videos were from a childcare centre in Pisa, Italy. His other 65 victims were from 11 locations across Brisbane.」
イタリア・ピサ出身の子供も含め、ブリスベーン各地11か所から65名の被害者あり、なんというかものすごく手広い。
なんというか、取り締まるなら何より先にこういうの、という風には流石に思う。

BBC Australia approves social media ban on under-16s 10 hours ago
Hannah Ritchie
「Australia will ban children under 16 from using social media, after its parliament approved the world's strictest laws.
The ban, which will not take effect for at least 12 months, could see tech companies fined up to A$50m ($32.5m; £25.7m) if they don't comply.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the legislation is needed to protect young people from the "harms" of social media, something many parent groups have echoed.」
問題を無駄に広げはするし、そう言いたくなる気持ちも理解する。飯塚事件の被害者さんの旦那さんに殺害脅迫やらかした子は16歳とかでしたっけ。…まあ、抑制したいというのもホントよくわかる。
こちらは一週間ほど前の記事。いよいよ法律ができそうだよ―というタイミングでの解説記事ですわね。
BBC Australia wants to ban kids from social media. Will it work? 21 November 2024
Hannah Ritchie
10歳の子が友人間のオンライン・メッセージを使っていた。ある日、友人と喧嘩したら、その友人氏が彼のアカウントをならずもののお仲間リンクにぶち込んだ。17歳かなあ、というその「やんちゃ」な新しい友人殿がマチェットもって「お前んち、いっちゃろか？」とかあおってくる―。
「The Australian boy, 12, had had a disagreement with a friend, and one night before bed the boy added him to a group chat with two older teenagers.
Almost instantly, his phone “started blowing up” with a string of violent messages.
“One of them sounded like he was probably 17,” James tells the BBC. “He sent me videos of him with a machete… he was waving it around. Then there were voice messages saying that they were going to catch me and stab me.”
James - not his real name - first joined Snapchat when he was 10, after a classmate suggested everyone in their friendship group get the app. But after telling his parents about his cyberbullying experience, which was ultimately resolved by his school, James deleted his account.」
―ネットいじめの一種ですわな。いじめ案件で処理したいところだ。だからこうした危険をもって即座にSNS禁止！というのはちょっと筋が悪い。とはいえ10歳は幼いな…という気ももちろん、する。
…この辺はなあ…各国各文化で、どの段階の大人とみなすか、ちょっとずつ違うようだからねえ…。
「Over 100 Australian academics have criticised the ban as "too blunt an instrument" and argued that it goes against UN advice which calls on governments to ensure young people have “safe access” to digital environments.」
ということで。学者識者としては、SNS禁止と即断するのはよくないよ、子供たちにもアクセスの権利がだね、という意見。それも尤も。
ということで、そういう両極端には中道があるだろう―とあいまいに言っておいてみよう。
