    Ebola outbreaks in DR Congo / Ocean Park's Water World reopening / Anti-diabetes drug used against organ ageing / APEC trade ministers meeting in Suzhou

    On this programme, we hear from a doctor after the SAR  activated an "alert" response level following Ebola outbreaks in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda.
    And then, a marketing expert tells us all about Ocean Park's special HK$2 admission offer for the elderly and disabled to its Water World from May 16th to July the third.
    After the break, we take a closer look at research by the Chinese University of Hong Kong that's discovered that a diabetes drug can counteract key hallmarks of ageing across multiple organ systems, and have potential efficacy in patients with severe stroke.
    And finally, we learn about an APEC ministerial meeting in Suzhou. The two-day event will cover important issues such as economic integration, supply chain resilience, digital trade and efforts to reduce barriers to cross-border commerce.

    On Thursday's Backchat, we talked to the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data on its new guidelines that address the misuse of AI-generated deepfake technology.
    After that, we turned our attention to the Caribbean, where tensions continue to mount between the United States and Venezuela. US President Donald Trump recently announced a blockade against "sanctioned oil tankers" coming in and out of the South American coastal nation. Venezuelan President Nicholas Maduro has accused Washington of trying to force a "regime change".
