    World Economic Forum / Post-secondary student hostels / Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show

    Presenters:Azam Khan and Mike Rowse

    On Monday's programme, we looked back at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland which wrapped up last Friday. US President Donald Trump called off his tariffs on his NATO allies and rolled back any notion of taking Greenland by force, not before lambasting his European allies.
    Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, meanwhile, gave a speech that hit back on Mr Trump's "Canada relies on the US" claim, which has escalated to their spat, leading to Mr Trump withdrawing an invitation to Canada to join his Board of Peace.
    After the break, we talked to experts about the Development Bureau fielding expressions of interest from the market for building post-secondary student hostels at three commercial sites in Kai Tak, Sha Tin and Tung Chung East.
    And finally, we told you all about Hong Kong's premium equestrian event, the Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show, which will return to AsiaWorld-Expo next week!
