    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.

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we talked about Chief Executive John Lee's upcoming Policy Address. The SAR leader has been holding consultation forums to solicit the public's views, meeting over 100 residents at a townhall meeting in Hung Hom last Sunday.
