Backchat
On Monday's programme, we talked about authorities' plan to impose a fixed penalty of 3,000 Hong Kong dollars for smoking at construction sites. The proposed smoking ban is in response to the deadly Wang Fuk Court blaze last November, which had been undergoing renovations. We heard from a tobacco control advocate and representatives from the construction industry.
After the break, we chatted with an executive from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, and learn more about the authority's new road map on modernising the trade finance landscape in Hong Kong.
And finally, we told you all about the International Massage Championship, which will take place at the end of the month at a venue in Kai Tak.
