On Wednesday's Backchat, we started with a look back at the Group of 20 Summit that took place in South Africa last weekend. Premier Li Qiang said G20 leaders should take the lead in upholding multilateralism, boost the voice of developing countries, and work for an international economic and trade order that is more fair and open.

How significant was the forum, despite the notable absence of US President Donald Trump? We spoke to experts about it.

After the break, we turned to another recent summit - the Hong Kong Maritime Week 2025, which took place last week. It was the largest edition of the event ever. We found out how technology, geopolitical headwinds and climate change are reshaping the industry.

And finally, we chatted with a representative from the Jockey Club's Carer Space Project, about a recent study that found that male carers under their programme need greater help and support.
