On Friday's Backchat, we talked about the new Central Kowloon Bypass (Yau Ma Tei Section), which will open on Sunday. Authorities said drivers will be able to use the new 4.7-kilometre transport link toll-free for the time being. We looked into how the new tunnel is expected to ease congestion.
After the break, we talked to a researcher from the Education University, who was part of a team that developed the world’s first AI‑empowered smart vest. The gadget is aimed at enhancing focus and classroom behaviour in children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD.
And we wrapped-up by examining the earthquake situation in Japan, after the country issued a megaquake advisory earlier this month. How prepared is the country in face of the possibility of another massive tremor?
