    Trump fired Kristi Noem as homeland security secretary / 2026 FIFA World Cup / Workplace Happiness Index

    On this programme, we talked to experts about US President Donald Trump's decision to fire the head of the Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem last week. She was responsible for carrying out his sweeping immigration crackdown, and will be replaced by Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin.
    After the break, we looked ahead to the 2026 World Cup. The International Football Association Board earlier approved a package of measures aimed at speeding up the pace of matches and cracking down on time wasting, with the changes set to come into force at the upcoming World Cup and all other competitions. 
    And to wrap up the show, a recruitment platform head told us all about the latest findings in their workplace happiness index. They previously asked over 1,000 Hong Kong employees about how happy there were with their jobs, and analysed the key reasons behind it.

    National Security Education Day / MTR Northern Link / Tariffs update / Baby bonus scheme review / Fanling skatepark

    主持人:Jenny Lam and Ada Wong

    On Monday's Backchat, we discussed the 10th National Security Education Day.

    Observed on April 15 each year, this day aims to raise public awareness about the various national security threats — and educate the public on how to guard against them.
    This comes as both local and central authorities have in recent years emphasised the importance of holistic security, which includes not only traditional threats such as terrorism, but also more subtle ones like political security, financial security, and food security.
    What emerging national security risks should we look out for? What needs to be done to further ward off these threats?
    We also spoke to a lawmaker about the newly approved MTR Northern Link Main Line, and to a policy expert about the latest tariff developments.
    After the news, we discussed the government’s plan to review the newborn baby bonus scheme.
    In the final part of the show, we learned more about a newly opened skatepark in Fanling
