    Iran war updates / Hong Kong Science Museum's new exhibits / More snakes spotted in Tseung Kwan O

    On this programme, we looked at the conflict in the Middle East, after US President Donald Trump sent confusing signals hinting that the Iran war could end soon. At the same time, Mr Trump is saying that the US could hit the country “twenty times harder”.

    After the break, a curator from the Hong Kong Science Museum told us more about the three new permanent galleries in the museum that focus on how modern technology, such as AI, robotics, and biotechnology, shapes daily life and future innovations.

    And to wrap it up, a lawmaker and pest control experts gave us some tips on what to do if you see snakes, after some residents in Tseung Kwan O reported a spike in sightings.

    Circular fashion initiatives / Hung Shui Kiu transit system / Audible traffic signal revamp

    主持人:Azam Khan and Philip Wong

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we discussed fast-fashion and its impact on the environment.

    NGO 'Redress' has recently launched a campaign to encourage sustainable fashion, while another Hong Kong-based platform, Open Lab, has introduced an AI-powered system to boost garment recycling. We spoke to representatives from both organisations. Is sustainable fashion a workable model that can reduce damage to the environment? Or is it just another trend for corporations to 'dress-up' the issue?
    After the break, we asked a government spokesperson more about the proposed Hung Shui Kiu Smart and Green Mass Transit System, which the government is aiming to invite tender for next year.
    Towards the end of the show, we discussed the government's move to replace all of Hong Kong’s electronic audible traffic signal units to provide greater convenience for people who are visually impaired.

    9:05am-9:16am: Katherine Chan, Director of Business Development, The Hong Kong Research Institute of Textiles and Apparel
