    Two Sessions 2026 / The dayday330 mental health campaign / Francophonie Festival

    On Friday's programme, we looked back at the "Two Sessions"—the plenary meetings of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. The gatherings focused on navigating geopolitical uncertainties and strengthening the economy, with discussions on transforming the nation into a technological powerhouse.
    Vice-Premier Ding Xuexiang also called on the Hong Kong and Macao SARs to capitalise on the significant opportunities presented by the country's 15th Five-Year Plan, saying that both cities had made comprehensive progress across various fields over the past year.
    After the break, we talked to a representative of a psychological health organisation about a new public awareness event on mental wellbeing.
    And we ended the show by telling you all about the Francophonie Festival, which has been putting on cultural events all month across the city.

    DSE results announcement / Beijing supply chain expo / Pet welfare

    Presenters:Azam Khan and CM Chan

    On Wednesday’s Backchat, we first dived into education amid the release of the latest DSE results. The Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority said a total of 16 students received perfect scores in the university entrance exams – up from ten last year.
    16,393 candidates, or 38.5 percent of them, meanwhile, met the minimum requirement needed for a publicly-funded university place.

    How are the university admissions coming along, and for students who didn’t perform quite as well, what options are available to them? We spoke to an education expert to find out more.
    After the break, we turned our attention to the Third China International Supply Chain Expo that kicked off in Beijing. The global convention, attended by over 650 companies from 75 countries and regions, showcases six core industry sectors, and will centre on the innovative enhancement of global supply chains. 
    We then wrapped things up by speaking to the New People’s Party about ways to improve pet welfare in the city.
