Every week, all around Hong Kong, there are many fascinating talks and lectures happening, on a variety of topics. You can easily find them online by looking at the websites of our universities, societies, and libraries. We've chosen ten for you to listen to here on Radio 3. For the next few Sunday mornings at 7.30, Carol Mang will be introducing abridged versions of what we think are a great selection of talks for you to listen to and indulge your... Mind Matters.

In this week's episode, we’ll talk about Manchuria during the early twentieth century. With the help of a wealth of primary sources, family letters, and visual depictions of village scenes collected by a French Catholic missionary, Alfred Marie Caubrière, Professor Ji Lin from the University of Hong Kong examines Chinese people at social and cultural margins during this period. She was invited by the University of Hong Kong to give a talk entitled At the Frontier of God's Empire: A Missionary Odyssey in Modern China, part of which we will hear this week.

Sundays from 7.30am to 8am... on Radio 3

Every one a winner this week on VCT. You’ll know them all! It’s hit after hit from the swing era of the mighty big bands, featuring Goodman, Dorsey, Herman, Ellington and, of course, Miller. Turn us up fortissimo!

Sundays from 8.30am to 9am... only on Radio 3

Sunday morning means another Sunday Escape, and on this week’s show Paul and Carolyn delve once again into their bags of brand new music to find tracks by Friko, Yard Act, Sailor Honeymoon, The Black Keys, C Turtle, and plenty more. On the album front the contenders for album of the week we have new LPs from Sleater-Kinney, Bill Ryder-Jones, The Reytons and The Vaccines. There’ll also be plenty of classic older music too. The week’s usual features include music from Little Boots plus a cover of a song from James McNew’s solo project 'Dump' by one of Paul’s favourite bands. There’s also the Super Clever Music Mystery Quiz, the usual chat, plus of course biscuits!

 Tune in on Sunday from 9am to 1pm.
