    Trump fired Kristi Noem as homeland security secretary / 2026 FIFA World Cup / Workplace Happiness Index

    On this programme, we talked to experts about US President Donald Trump's decision to fire the head of the Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem last week. She was responsible for carrying out his sweeping immigration crackdown, and will be replaced by Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin.
    After the break, we looked ahead to the 2026 World Cup. The International Football Association Board earlier approved a package of measures aimed at speeding up the pace of matches and cracking down on time wasting, with the changes set to come into force at the upcoming World Cup and all other competitions. 
    And to wrap up the show, a recruitment platform head told us all about the latest findings in their workplace happiness index. They previously asked over 1,000 Hong Kong employees about how happy there were with their jobs, and analysed the key reasons behind it.

    Hong Kong's first hydrogen charging station / Master's programmes fee hike

    主持人:Brian Wong and John Bruce

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we found out more about the potential to develop hydrogen energy in Hong Kong.
    That's after Towngas recently established a partnership with Hong Kong Science & Technology Parks to develop the city's first electric vehicle charging system using purely hydrogen.
    The system in Science Park is expected to start operating in the second quarter of next year. We talked to representatives from both Towngas and the Science Park to learn more about the project, and whether hydrogen is indeed a viable energy source in the SAR.

    After the break, we switched gears and looked at rising tuition charges for master's programmes at local universities. Fees have increased quite substantially in recent years, raising concerns about affordability for local students.

    9:05am-9:30am: Hong Kong's first hydrogen charging station
    Speakers:
    Filla Mak, Chief Operations Officer of Hong Kong Science & Technology Parks
    Don Cheng, Chief Operating Officer of Hong Kong Business at Towngas

    9:32am-10:00am: Tuition fee hikes
    Speakers:
    Victor Kwok, Deputy Research Director at Our Hong Kong Foundation
    Mervyn Cheung, Chairman of the Hong Kong Education Policy Concern Organisation
