Two French soldiers killed in rescue of four hostages in Burkina Faso
Two French soldiers were killed in a night-time rescue of four foreign hostages including two French citizens from the clutches of a militant group described as "terrorists" by the military. President Emmanuel Macron's office said a US woman and a South Korean woman were also freed in the covert operation. All four hostages were safe, the French presidency added. The two French citizens were kidnapped while on safari in neighbouring Benin.
"The precise and determined actions of French soldiers allowed us to take out the kidnappers while protecting the lives of the hostages," France's army chief said in a separate statement.
French special forces carried out the raid under cover of dark over the night of Thursday-Friday, supported by US intelligence and troops from France's Barkhane operation deployed in the Sahel region to counter Islamist militants. The two French tourists were kidnapped in Benin's Pendjari National Park last week. Their safari guide was found dead, his body riddled with bullets, and their vehicle burned.
The French government had warned its citizens against travelling to parts of Benin near the Burkina Faso border where the park is located because of the risk of kidnapping. Swathes of northern and eastern Burkina Faso have been overrun by Islamist militants, forcing more than 100,000 residents to flee.

The price of Salt People Down, Now Turn the Salt Grower in Sumenep Scream
PALMERAH – The price of salt at the salt farmer level in Sumenep Regency, East Java, began to decline gradually over the past few days from Rp3,500 per kilogram (kg) to Rp2,100. The salt growers screamed.
“Currently the price of salt is Rp2.100 per kilo,” said Ubaidillah, a salt farmer in Pinggirpapas, Kalianget Subdistrict, Sumenep, Madura, on Tuesday. He said, initially the price of peasant salt at the farm level fell from Rp3.500 per kilogram to Rp3.000. After that, it dropped again to Rp2,600; then Rp2.400, and now Rp2.100 per kg.
“We expect that the price of salt will continue to fall due to imported salt, which is less encouraging for farmers,” he said. Ubaidillah also pointed out, since a few days ago, the weather has returned to normal and supports the production of people’s salt.
Previously, it still frequently rains, which does not support salt production in Sumenep and surrounding areas to make people’s salt production disturbed. Inadequate production of salt that makes the supply of salt commodities at the farm level is limited. This condition makes the price of salt to be expensive because it had reached Rp3.500 per kg.
At the end of last week, 27,500 tons of imported salt from Australia arrived at the Port of Tanjung Perak Surabaya. This imported salt is distributed to a number of Small and Medium Industry (IKM) players in three regions, namely East Java, Central Java and West Kalimantan.

TRIBUNNEWS.COM - Health conditions are influenced by what we eat. Eating healthy and balanced foods, including at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day, can reduce the risk of premature death, according to the UK National Health Service, we can also increase life expectancy by doing regular exercise. Nutritionist Dr. Sarah Brewer and dietitian Juliette Kellow explained her views on this matter.

April business survey predicts slower pace of economic growth in the US



Just 53% of the economists polled for the National Association for Business Economics’ April survey expect the economy to grow by more than 2% this year, down from 67% who felt that way in January.
The results from the survey suggest a sharp slowdown after the Commerce Department reported Friday that the economy grew at a strong 3.2% during the first quarter.

A survey of corporate economists predicts the economy will expand over the next year, although the pace of growth will decline and employers are facing pressure to raise wages, spend more on worker training and automate tasks because of the low unemployment rate.

Just 53% of the economists polled for the National Association for Business Economics’ April survey, released Monday, expect the economy to grow by more than 2% this year, down from 67% who felt that way in January. The results from the survey suggest a sharp slowdown after the Commerce Department reported Friday that the economy grew at a strong 3.2% during the first quarter.

The economy grew quickly during the first three months of 2019 because of a surge in company inventories and a shrinkage in the trade gap, temporary factors that are likely to fade.
Businesses increased imports at the end of 2018 out of concern that President Donald Trump could further escalate tariffs against China, but the administration held off to conduct trade talks with the world’s second largest economy.

However, the NABE survey found that the tariffs already imposed by Trump have been a drag. For economists involved in goods producing, 75% said the import taxes were a negative.
Still, profit margins were rising in 32% of the corporate economists’ firms, up from 23% previously. More than half — 52% — say there was a shortage of skilled labor, a sign of possible wage pressures.

More than 550 election officials who died during the 2019 Election, consisting of members of the Polling Organizing Group (KPPS), Panwaslu and the National Police.

Observers said that the number of deceased officers became political material.
The results of the medical audit and verbal autopsy conducted by the Ministry of Health found that most of the causes of death were diseases triggered by fatigue and old age.
"In addition to DKI Jakarta, in general we have gotten points from the regions, the average death due to illness. Coupled with fatigue ... And the average age of more than 50 years at the most," said Oscar Primadi, Secretary General of the Ministry Health.

In DKI Jakarta, Oscar explained that the results of their medical audit found "Of the 18 people who died, the cause was congenital diseases, there were 8 infarction diseases, 4 heart failure, there was a hepatic coma, one stroke two people, two respiratory failure , meningitis, and everything is not secondary but the result of congenital disease. "Such a large number encouraged community groups such as the Community Health Care Society and Prabowo-Sandi National Winning Body to autopsy the KPPS officers who died. But this method according to Oscar is not appropriate to do at this stage. "The autopsy for death cannot, there must be a family agreement and must be more detailed and meticulous," Oscar said. Politicization of the problem
Along with the growing number of officers who died, the greater the politicization of this issue, according to Election observers from Perludem, Titi Anggraini, was caused by the KPU's silence.

"It takes the ability to manage priority issues so that the narratives circulating in the public become so wild because they don't get an explanation balance from the KPU," said Titi.

KPU commissioner Ilham Saputra said that the KPU's silence was not because they did not care, but because they were trying to complete the vote count according to the deadline.
"The KPU is currently preoccupied with many things. We have also dealt with our friends and relatives who have died. If to repeat or question the issues again, for us we will find it difficult to face future problems , like today's recapitulation, "answered Ilham.

Titi also regretted that the KPU did not break down the confusion of the burden that must be borne by KPPS officers.
The death of officers due to illness triggered by fatigue itself occurred every election since 2004, according to Titi who has monitored the implementation of elections and democracy since 1999.
