    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.

    After the break, we looked at the recent visit of Latin American leaders to China, hosted by President Xi Jinping. Big announcements were made, including a massive new credit line that will be extended to Latin American nations to support development, and a new country joining the Belt and Road initiative.

    And at the end of the programme, we learned more about this year's Chelsea Flower Show in London, with Hong Kong's Kadoorie Farm among the exhibitors.
