    Epstein files release / First wheelchair user traveled to space / Protections against "super flu"

    On Monday's Backchat, we started by speaking to experts about the latest Epstein Files. Mandated by a new law, the US Department of Justice is steadily releasing declassified documents linked to the deceased financier and paedophile.
    However, both Democratic and Republican lawmakers were quick to point out that many names and pages remain redacted or blacked out. US President Donald Trump's name, meanwhile, has appeared more in the latest tranche of files. How much of a political danger is Mr Trump in?

    After the break, we spoke to a top Hong Kong astro-physicist regarding Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin launching the first wheelchair user into space. He also shared with us the most exciting space developments to look forward to in 2026!
    And lastly, we heared more from an infectious diseases expert, after the emergence of a “super flu” gripped headlines worldwide. Local health officials are once again reminding residents to get vaccinated.

    Policy Address review - Education / Hong Kong Laureate Forum

    主持人:Azam Khan and Philip Wong

    On Friday's Backchat, we looked at the chief executive's new measures to boost education.

    Experts explained the significance of the government's decision to set up an "AI Literacy" learning framework and talked about ways authorities and schools can attract more non-local students to study in Hong Kong.

    In the latter part of the show, we were joined by two scientists taking part in November's Hong Kong Laureate Forum -- one of the SAR’s most prestigious scientific gatherings. The event will promote cross-generational exchange and scientific research as well as highlight the territory’s role as an international science and research hub.
