    Observatory's summer weather predictions / Return of stranded astronauts

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we're discussing the effects of climate change on our weather patterns.

    The Hong Kong Observatory has announced that we can expect a hotter summer, along with the possibility of up to eight tropical cyclones starting as early as June.
    In their predictions released ahead of World Meteorological Day this Sunday, the forecaster also warned of more localised heavy rain, although they do not anticipate an increase in average rainfall. So how well prepared are we in the face changing weather conditions?
    In the second part of our show, after the news, we'll dive into the rescue mission involving NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, whose Boeing spacecraft encountered technical issues leaving them stranded for nine months. They were sent back in a SpaceX capsule.

    Have private firms such as SpaceX outperformed NASA in both research and capabilities? And can Boeing recover from this failure?

    Taxi unions threatening strike / Rise in cervical cancer cases

    主持人:Jenny Lam and Ada Wong

    On Monday’s Backchat, we talk about a potential strike by a cab drivers’ union.

    The Hong Kong Tele-call Taxi Association warned that its members could go on strike for at least five days in March, unless authorities take action against illegal ride-hailing services.
    This comes as the government is expected to unveil a framework which could lead to the legalisation of currently unregulated private hire services. And while some taxi drivers worry over the future of their trade, not all agree with resorting to industrial action.
    After 9:45, we learn more about ways through which people can get screened for cervical cancer, as cases over the past decade jumped by more than 30 percent.
