    China-Nepal border floods / The world's first snake to undergo human cancer treatment / Asian Cities Internationality Index 2026 / Enhanced heat stress warnings

    On this programme, an environment expert tells us more about the massive flash flood along the Himalayan border of China and Nepal that's killed over 900 and left hundreds of tourists missing.
    Then, we learn about how a python in the United Kingdom has become the first snake in the world to receive electrochemotherapy, a cancer treatment that's typically used on humans. 
    After the break, we look into the Asian Cities Internationality Index 2026, where Hong Kong continues to be Asia’s top international city and the region’s premier gateway for regional and global operations. 
    And to wrap up the show, we speak with a lawmaker about the latest optimisations for the Labour Department's Heat Stress at Work Warning system, following record-breaking temperatures recorded earlier that increased risks faced by outdoor workers.
