On Friday's Backchat, we looked at how Hong Kong is preparing to host the upcoming National Games. It's the first time that the Hong Kong and Macau SARs are taking part in co-hosting the nation's biggest sporting extravaganza, which will feature 34 competition and 23 mass participation events. How are the preparations going? We talked to the head of the Games' coordination office, Yeung Tak-keung.
We then heard from the Equal Opportunities Commission, which recently published a guide on how companies should support employees who are suffering from mental health conditions.
After the break, we found out more about the Hong Kong Cat Expo, which will run until Sunday at the Convention and Exhibition Centre in Wan Chai.
And to wrap it all up, we spoke to the Hong Kong Productivity Council on how the private sector is doing on carbon reduction.
