    Changes to teacher registry regime / HKMA's property transaction arrangements / Thai election results

    On Tuesday's Backchat, we talked about recent changes in the education sector. A new proposal will see teachers from publicly funded schools, private schools, international schools and kindergartens fulfill six requirements to obtain a three-year practising certificate. The measure aims to help teachers keep pace with the times, with secretary for education Christine Choi saying there will be leeway given in the first year of implementation.

    After the break, a senior executive at the Hong Kong Monetary Authority told us more about a recent expansion of electronic payment arrangements for property transactions.

    To end the show, we looked at the recent recent election in Thailand, where Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul's conservative party secured victory.

    Slope safety / Chat with Mahesh Harilela / Boao Forum for Asia

    主持人:Azam Khan and Mike Rowse

    On Monday's Backchat, we learned more about slope safety as Hong Kong enters the rainy season.

    The government has launched numerous projects over the years to minimise the chances of landslides, resulting in a substantial drop in serious incidents.
    But experts say we must not rest on our laurels as extreme weather brought about by climate change will continue to pose safety risks.
    We talked to an official about the use of cutting-edge technology to bolster landslide prevention.
    We also invited Mahesh Harilela, Family Council Convenor of the Harilela Group, to tell us about his family's history and how the city has shaped his life.
    After the break, we took a deep-dive into the Boao Forum that was recently held in Hong Kong. The theme for this year’s event is: “Transitioning towards the future: Powered by Science, Technology and Innovation”.

    9:05am-9:15am: Slope safety

    9:05am-9:15am: Raymond Cheung, Head of the Geotechnical Engineering Office at the Civil Engineering and Development Department (CEDD)

    9:15am-9:30am: Chat with Mahesh Harilela
