BBC在线收听下载:非洲领导人商讨拯救濒危动物行动

African leaders are meeting in Kenya to discuss ways to stop the poaching of elephants and save the animals from extinction. The Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta called for decisive action to stop the illegal trade in ivory, Ann Soy is in Nairobi. “When you look at the statistics in the 1930’s and 1940’s, there were about three to five million elephants, but today that population has been decimated by factor of ten. There are just about 400,000 elephants and every 20 to 40,000 are killed. So it means that in about a decade or so, if this slaughter goes on unabated, then they could face extinction, so part of goals of  this meeting is to raise funds to support conservation, but the other thing that they’re also talking about which they say is very important is getting communities to support anti-poaching efforts.”
非洲领导人齐聚肯尼亚，商讨禁猎大象以及拯救濒危动物行动。肯尼亚总统乌胡鲁•肯雅塔要求立即采取措施，打击非法贩卖象牙活动。请听安•索伊为您从内罗毕发回的报道。你如果看看30-40年代的数据，当时的大象数量约3-500万头，而如今却削减了十倍。现有大象约40万头，每40万头中就有20头遭到捕杀。所以在未来十年左右，若屠杀行动不给予制止，大象或将面临灭绝。所以大会的目标之一就是要为保护大象筹集资金，另一件至关重要的事情就是，要让地区支持禁猎活动。

The embattled South African President Jacob Zuma will learn today whether the high court in Pretoria intends to reinstate nearly 800 corruption charges against him. In 2009, the acting director of public prosecutions withdrew them,a move that enabled Mr. Zuma's election later that year. The opposition Democratic Alliance says the prosecutor’s decision was politically motivated,Nomsa Maseko is in Pretoria. “The Democratic Alliance wants to court to set aside the controversial decision taken in 2009 by then acting prosecutions head Mugodadim Meshay to drop more than 700 corruption charges against the President. The decision was based on evidence that the timing of indictment against Mr.Zuma had been manipulated to block his political ambitions. The evidence emerged from spy tapes which are recording the phone conversations between South Africa's former spy chief and former top prosecutor in which they allegedly plotted to block Mr. Zuma in his quest to become president of the country.”
