On Friday's Backchat, we looked at the key takeaways from this year's 10th Belt and Road Summit which just concluded. We talked to a representative from the Singapore Chamber of Commerce and a former Egyptian Consul General to Hong Kong.
They also talked about how the legal sector can foster cross-border collaboration.
After the break, we previewed the SAR's premium equestrian event, the Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show.
And finally, we turned our attention to Japan, where the country's leader Shigeru Ishiba has announced he's stepping down after less than a year in power.
