Rosh Hashanah, in Hebrew means “head of the year”. It is the beginning of the year according to the traditional Jewish calendar and a time of inner renewal and divine atonement. This year’s celebration started last Monday on September 6th and ended on the evening of Wednesday, 8th. Rosh Hashanah is the first day of the High Holidays or “Days of Awe”, which ends with a 25-hour fast called Yom Kippur or "Day of Atonement" that begins on the evening of 15th September. It is the holiest Jewish holiday of the year, filled with traditions and meaning. Carol Man, a Hong Kong Chinese artist who has adopted the Jewish faith, has long been intertwining her cultural identities in her artistic journey. At Tang Contemporary Art gallery, co-curators Giuliana Benassi and Michela Sena, have selected over 15 works by six young Italian artists that address the current period of instability and uncertainty in our world. The exhibition is called “Ineffable Worlds”. The artists taking part are Marta Mancini, Andrea Martinucci, Alessandro Giannì, Luca Grimaldi, Marco Eusepi, and Giulia Dall’Olio. Among the themes and subjects they examine are technology and the digital world, pop culture, nature and temporality, abstraction and figuration, space, and a “mythology of the future”. The life expectancy of Hong Kong’s population, like that of many places elsewhere in the world, is longer than it used to be. Many societies are having to make new adjustments for ageing populations. The good news though is that in general, older people are staying healthier and active for longer. Old age is being redefined, and more of us are realising that getting older shouldn not necessarily mean giving up your sense of fun or your passions. The men who make up the local band, “Men of Winds” are all 50 or older. And their passion for music is undiminished.

騙徒手法層出不窮，市民要小心提防！而當中「猜猜我是誰」電話騙案是本港其中一類最常見的騙案。 騙徒會隨意致電受害人，當電話接通後，會說出「我呀！記唔記得我？」等類似說話，一旦事主以為是某位親友，甚至直呼其名時，騙徒便會立即冒認。隨後騙徒會訛稱於外地遇上意外或因犯法被拘捕，然後要求受害人匯錢應急，藉以騙取受害人金錢。

Hong Kong’s population and building density are among the highest anywhere in the world. According to government figures, we have 6,930 people per square kilometre. Every living and non-living thing is fighting for space. We build taller and live higher. No other city has more skyscrapers than Hong Kong. Added to this is a pretty advanced transport infrastructure, both under and above the ground. Recently however there has been a greater focus on another form of civic planning: emphasising the creation of a liveable city that promotes the wellbeing of the community. What this means is enhancing the liveability of the city on several levels including physical, social and cultural aspects. In today’s episode, we’re looking at attempts to make Hong Kong a more walkable city, and what is being done about conserving history through heritage buildings. It might surprise you to know that Hong Kong has more than 8,000 of them.

Hong Kong Stories – Detour to Happiness Episode 9 Cookie and George “To me, happiness means to be contented with your current life and what you have, and have someone you love who also loves you.” Cookie and George had a fortuitous meeting, and they got married in 2011 soon after they fell in love. Cookie taught Chinese in a secondary school and she was also a lyricist of pop music, while George was a sales manager working at a homeware chain store. The two enjoyed a happy matrimonial life. However, in 2014, due to work pressure and other factors such as familial heredity, Cookie was diagnosed with depression. She drank all day, lacked motivation and was suicidal. George and Cookie moved to the home of Cookie’s parents in order to take better care of Cookie, but Cookie’s symptoms worsened continuously. She tried to kill herself twice and was rescued, and she had been hospitalised in a psychiatric ward for 7 days. During Cookie’s hospitalisation, George had wondered if their marriage should be continued. But then he recalled his wedding vow and decided not to end their marriage. After Cookie was discharged, George was worried that she would take her life again and was completely stressed out, so he gambled to relieve stress. Later on, the couple recovered from rock bottom under the guidance of social workers. They quitted their jobs successively and opened a small shop selling Korean accessories. A few months ago, George refurbished their old home and moved back to it with Cookie to enjoy a world of 2 people again. Currently, the couple work together, take care of each other, and enjoy a simple, contented and happy life. Producer： PONG Tin-pang, Thomas Broadcast：27 June 2022 (Mon) 7:00 a.m. RTHK TV 31

To find an ideal job according to one’s own interests is a right that everyone should enjoy, and it should not be different because they are disabled. “Project WORKS” implemented by Ebenezer School and Home for the Visually Impaired (Ebenezer) related to employment support helps the visually impaired graduates of Ebenezer. The graduates who are employed will help the students in the school to plan their careers, in the form of teaching and practical instruction. WONG Mei-ling is a graduate of Ebenezer. Through the career matching of “Project WORKS”, she is now working for Eye Fund. She had bad experience at work in the past, but with her proactive character, she regularly shares her career experiences with the students studying in Ebenezer. WONG Ka-ho is the first graduate of Ebenezer who had a successful employment match under “Project WORKS”. He is a graduate of the Department of Social Work of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He is currently working as a social worker at the Senior Citizen Home Safety Association and mainly responsible for telephone counseling work of the “Care-on-Call Service”. TSE Yun-hang is a student who is determined to work in the social work industry. Under “Project WORKS”, he received guidance from WONG Mei-ling and WONG Ka-ho, who are both working for social welfare organizations. Through volunteer works, visiting, internships and other opportunities, they share their work experience. During the process, TSE is told the difficulties that the visually-impaired might encountered in the workplace, and taught how to get along with sighted colleagues and bosses. As such, TSE can start planning his career as early as possible and build a solid foundation for future employment.

Streets full of signboards is “a beautiful sight to behold” in Hong Kong. However, many of the signboards are unauthorized or non-compliant works which can easily cause accidents. LING Hok-lai (played by Colin CHAN), Building Surveyor of the Buildings Department, works with his partner FONG Pik-yee, Jackie (played by Sofiee NG) at the Signboard Control Unit. One day, the two receive a complaint from Jen that a large signboard is suddenly erected outside her home within one night. After investigation, the two find that the signboard belongs to an outdoor advertising company. The said company combines two small signboards into one large signboard without authorization and blocks Jen's window. On the other hand, the two partners discover a signboard of a martial arts school posing potential structural risk during patrol. They explain to the master of the martial arts school that the signboard is relatively small in scale and poses lower potential risks, so it can be kept if the school joins the Signboard Validation Scheme and ensures that the signboard meets all the specifications. As for the signboard outside Jen's home, removal order has been issued and everything looks smooth. However, the advertising company keeps on playing nasty tricks — lodging appeals repeatedly and changing responsible person of the company, such that the deadline of removal is postponed again and again. Worse still, the company changes the advertisement posted on the signboard before the deadline of the removal order, causing the removal order issued earlier may lose its efficacy and seriously ruins the two partners’ plan. Luckily, the two find important evidence proving that the signboard concerned belongs to the said advertising company. The two immediately applies to the court for Priority Demolition Order, and sends contractor to remove the large signboard concerned in order to ensure public safety and let Jen's family see the sky again.
