    Global Innovation Index / HIV test drive / HKUST develops innovative virus testing platform / UN adopts new world map

    On this programme, we first look at the latest Global Innovation Index as the Shenzhen-Hong Kong-Guangzhou cluster retains its top spot in 2026 for the second-straight year.

    Then, we hear from a doctor on why members of the public who have had sex should undergo HIV antibody testing at least once to prevent HIV transmission in the community.

    After the break, a scholar from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology will tell us how he and his team have developed an innovative testing platform that could transform highly sensitive nucleic acid testing from a laboratory-based procedure into a simple, single-step test that can be performed at home.

    And to wrap up the show, we learned why the United Nations General Assembly has backed a resolution spearheaded by several African countries to adopt a map that makes their continent bigger while shrinking North America and Europe.

    主持人:John Bruce and Mike Rowse

    On this programme, we looked at the escalating Iran conflict that made leading maritime insurers cancel war risk cover for vessels operating in the Gulf region.

    A travel security analyst also joined us to discuss the risks of travelling and doing business in Gulf states, as some well-known international hotel chains in the region were hit by retaliatory strikes coming from Iran.

    After the break, a former race-car driver told us what to expect of the new Formula One season that is set to return this weekend.

    And finally, we brought you the latest updates on the annual “Two Sessions”, that are taking place in the capital. Premier Li Qiang unveiled major development targets for the 15th Five-year Plan, and set the 2026 GDP growth target at 4.5 percent to 5 percent.
