    Fuel prices surge / "Asian flush" study / Digital gap for the elderly / HK Express moving to Terminal 2

    On this programme, we talked to a representative from the transport industry about fuel surcharges. Escalation in the Middle East conflict has propelled global crude oil prices to heights not seen in years. Will airlines and public transportation in Hong Kong be able to weather the storm, or will measures be needed to moderate prices?
    We then learned more from a City University professor about the so-called "Asian glow", and how his team's new study may provide a possible explanation behind the condition that affects about 40 percent of the population in East Asia.
    Following the break, we talked about the digital divide between the older and younger generation, after a recent survey on the SAR's digital literacy was conducted. 
    And we wrapped up the show with a conversation talking to the COO of HK Express about the upgrades at Hong Kong International Airport's Terminal 2.

    US ambitions to "takeover" Greenland / HKJC's new riding school / Baby milk formula recall

    Presenters:Brian Wong and Rainbow Leung

    On Friday's programme, we looked at Donald Trump's growing appetite for Greenland. Several high ranking officials from the US President's administration have said they will actively pursue acquiring the vast Danish territory, and Mr Trump has not ruled out using force to do this. The development has shaken European states, and the Danish Prime Minister has again come out and rebuffed Mr Trump. Why is Washington going down this path even though Denmark is a Nato ally? 
    After the break, we've got lawmaker and Sai Kung District Councillor Christine Fong coming on to talk about the new riding school that the Hong Kong Jockey Club wants to build in Tseung Kwan O. It would be the fourth such facility in the city.
    And we talked to a medical expert to learn more about Nestle Hong Kong recalling 21 batches of baby milk formula over a potential toxin contamination.
