Backchat
On this programme, we talk to a lawmaker on the regulations of cross-boundary medical advertisements. This came as the government had issued over 1,600 warning letters in the past three years on medical advertisements suspected of contravening the law, including nine concerning advertisements for medical services outside Hong Kong.
Then, another lawmaker tell us on the government's plan on enhancing price transparency of private healthcare services.
After the break, we find out more about the two-day Global University Presidents and Leaders Summit that begins at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
And finally, our AI consultant tells us why government agencies and multinationals across the world had to shut their websites after critical flaws came to light involving PHP, a programming language which run nearly 70 percent of all websites.
