    New batch of Epstein files / Record high Belt and Road investment figures / Social network for AI agents

    On Friday's programme, we began with a closer look at the latest tranche of files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The millions of documents released by the US Department of Justice contained the names of the rich and the powerful, from Elon Musk to Bill Gates, Republicans, Democrats, British politicians, Israeli intelligence agents, among others.

    We then talked to experts on what the implications are, and if Epstein's victims are any closer to getting justice.

    After the break, we heard from a scholar about how the Belt and Road Initiative was able to hit a record-high last year in total investment and construction. The mega-project has seen a deepening of economic cooperation in Africa and Central Asia.

    And lastly, we talked with our tech correspondent and learn all about 'Moltbook', a social media platform that's designed for AI agents. Should we be amused, or afraid?

    主持人:Azam Khan and John Bruce

    On Tuesday's Backchat, we delved into the latest cultural trends in Hong Kong. 

    The SAR's fashion extravaganza, Centrestage, will be celebrating its tenth anniversary with a range of events showcasing some of the city's emerging designers. 

    Sticking with culture, we talked to a local photographer about what it was like to win the prestigious Architecture Photography Awards.  

    We also looked at the issue of vision health in local children, after a recent survey found that a fifth of youngsters who don't wear glasses had substandard vision. 

    And we learnt about the best mosquito prevention practices after Hong Kong recently recorded its first case of Japanese encephalitis in six years.
