    Fuel prices surge / "Asian flush" study / Digital gap for the elderly / HK Express moving to Terminal 2

    On this programme, we talked to a representative from the transport industry about fuel surcharges. Escalation in the Middle East conflict has propelled global crude oil prices to heights not seen in years. Will airlines and public transportation in Hong Kong be able to weather the storm, or will measures be needed to moderate prices?
    We then learned more from a City University professor about the so-called "Asian glow", and how his team's new study may provide a possible explanation behind the condition that affects about 40 percent of the population in East Asia.
    Following the break, we talked about the digital divide between the older and younger generation, after a recent survey on the SAR's digital literacy was conducted. 
    And we wrapped up the show with a conversation talking to the COO of HK Express about the upgrades at Hong Kong International Airport's Terminal 2.

    Cybersecurity law / Cantonese Opera English repository

    Presenters:Jenny Lam and Rainbow Leung

    On Monday’s Backchat, we talked about the newly passed cybersecurity law.
    Lawmakers approved a bill designed to protect the cybersecurity of critical infrastructures across several sectors including banking, healthcare, and telecommunications.
    Under the new law, organisations failing to fulfill their responsibilities could face fines of up to HK$5 million if convicted after trial. The legislation comes amidst a spike in cybersecurity incidents involving private businesses.
    Are private entities prepared for these changes? We asked the experts.

    After 9:45, we spoke to the curators of the Cantonese Opera Repository on the launch of its online English translations.

    9:05am-9:45am: Cybersecurity law
