    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.

    Australian PM's China visit / CUHK's new surgical tool treating ischemic strokes / Cloud seeding technology / Chikungunya fever

    主持人:Azam Khan and John Bruce

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we started off with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's recent state visit to China, his second in as many years. A number of trade agreements were signed and both sides agreed on the importance of deepening diplomatic and economic cooperation. We spoke to an expert about the significance of the trip.
    We then learnt about a new, state-of-the-art device developed by the Chinese University of Hong Kong that treats a form of stroke.
    After the break, we heard from a meteorologist on cloud seeding, a decades old weather modification technique -- and found out whether it's capable of triggering natural disasters. It came after rumours spread online that cloud seeding was to blame for the deadly flash floods in Central Texas earlier this month.

    Finally, we wrapped up the programme by speaking to the Centre for Health Protection about Chikungunya fever-- a mosquito borne disease that's caused an outbreak in neighbouring Guangdong.
