East Asia’s Underbelly: Shanghai’s Delivery Riders And Japan’s Yakuza | CNA Correspondent

Описание: CNA Correspondent gets into the underbelly of some of East Asia’s biggest cities to find out why some have been kept from progressing with the rest of society. In Shanghai, Emil Wan follows two migrant workers who work in China’s notoriously cutthroat food delivery industry. Dai Yazhen and Deng Erhu are among China’s growing army of delivery workers and ride-hailing drivers. But as China grapples with sluggish economic growth and unemployment, their road ahead looks uncertain. In Hong Kong, Deborah Wong examines the hurdles facing refugees after they arrive in the city seeking asylum. And she finds out, even after their non-refoulement claims are substantiated, life remains in limbo as resettlement could take decades, if it ever happens. In Saitama city near Tokyo, Michiyo Ishida sits down with ex-Yakuza-turned-pastor Tatsuya Shindo to learn about the tough transition facing former gang members as Japan’s organised crime groups see their numbers steadily shrink in the last two decades.
