    2026 property market outlook / Kai Tak Cruise Terminal tender

    On Friday's programme, we talked to experts on Hong Kong's property market outlook in 2026. According to the latest official figures, home prices rose nearly 2.8 percent in the first 11 months of 2025. Are we expecting a continued recovery this year? And will prices continue to rise? We found out.

    After the break, we talked to the Commissioner for Tourism and a scholar about the future of the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal. The government recently launched an open tender for a ten-year tenancy to operate and manage the terminal, after the agreement with the current operator expires in May 2028.

    CE John Lee's Middle East visit / China's renewable energy development / AFTEC creativity project

    Presenters:Azam Khan and John Bruce

    On Tuesday’s Backchat, we looked back at Chief Executive John Lee’s trip to Qatar and Kuwait.

    The SAR leader led a business delegation to the two Middle Eastern countries earlier this month. He described the visit as a successful and fruitful one.
    A total of 59 Memoranda of Understanding and agreements were signed, including 35 in Qatar and 24 in Kuwait, spanning areas like finance, innovation and technology, commerce and legal support.
    We talked to stakeholders and members of the delegation to find out what opportunities lie ahead for the SAR.
    After the news, we took a closer look at China’s renewable energy development, after a think tank recently found that the country's carbon emissions fell in the first quarter of 2025 despite rising power demands.
    And in the final part of the show, we were joined by a representative of the AFTEC Jockey Club Creative Futures Project for a preview of its Knowledge Exchange Festival that will take place from Friday to Sunday. The event is aimed at encouraging creativity and new ideas.
