On this programme, we first speak with experts and a lawmaker about ride hailing permits. The regulatory regime launches next year, but there's still creases being ironed out, including the number of permits to be issued. Authorities said they're consulting the public too.
After the break, we unpack a recent study conducted by researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong which found that middle-aged women with overweight or obesity lose more fat by combining flexible time-restricted eating with aerobic exercise.
And lastly, we learn all about the Global Prosperity Summit that is set to be held in Hong Kong next week.
