On Wednesday's programme, we take a closer look at the ban on alternative smoking products that will take effect from tomorrow. We'll speak with a government official and an anti-smoking advocate on the details of the ban and how it better protects Hong Kong's community.
After the break, we switch gears and take a look at the level of protection being given to America's political leaders. The debate was reignited after shots were fired at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner attended by US President Donald Trump on Saturday night.
And to wrap up the show, we chat with our AI consultant to find out more about Deepseek's latest AI model, the open-source V4, and how it compares with other leading US closed-source models such as OpenAI and Google DeepMind.
