    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.


    9:05am-9:45am: Taxi unions threatening strike

    9:05am-9:45am: Colin Cohen, Co-founder and Senior Partner at law firm Boase Cohen & Collins

    9:05am-9:45am: Alejandro Reyes, Professor at the Department of Politics and Public Administration, The University of Hong Kong
