    Hong Kong's rising income gap / Use of Metaverse at university

    On Friday’s Backchat, we look at Hong Kong’s wealth gap, after a new Oxfam report suggested that economic inequality here is at its worst in a decade. 

    It found the richest 10 percent make almost 60 times more than the poorest; a fifth of the population were below the poverty line as of the first quarter of the year; and economically inactive households – mostly elderly people and homemakers – make up a large proportion of the bottom 10 percent.
    The charity says the government can help by creating more jobs for the underprivileged, and by reviewing Hong Kong’s minimum wage every year to make sure it keeps up with inflation.
    Do you think the wealth gap is at its widest in a decade? Is inequality getting worse? What’s the best way to address the problem?
    After 9:45am we dive into the Metaverse and see how two universities are using the virtual space to educate their students.

    On Monday’s Backchat, we’re talking about agriculture and organic farming. While Hong Kong remains heavily dependent on the mainland for imports of vegetables, there are calls for the territory to increase self-sufficiency with more home-grown produce. With the government placing an emphasis on sustainable farming and fishing, we’ll be asking what needs to be done if the sector is to thrive, through finance, land use and technological support. Would urban agriculture enhance our quality of life?
     
    After 9:45, we’ll be looking at the reopening of Cruise Terminal for international cruises, after three
    years of the pandemic.
