    Regulation on cross-boundary medical ads / Private healthcare price transparency / Global University Presidents and Leaders Summit 2026 / Critical security flaws in PHP

    On this programme, we talk to a lawmaker on the regulations of cross-boundary medical advertisements. This came as the government had issued over 1,600 warning letters in the past three years on medical advertisements suspected of contravening the law, including nine concerning advertisements for medical services outside Hong Kong.
