    Taxi vs ride-hailing rivalry / Hong Kong's first breastmilk bank

    On today's Backchat, we're talking about heightened tensions between ride-hailing providers and taxi drivers.

    Cab drivers last week held an "undercover operation" in a move to tackle ride-hailing services, by posing as Uber passengers and calling the police when reaching their destination.
    Speaking to RTHK, the chairman of the Hong Kong Taxi and Public Light Bus Association Chow Kwok-keung said that he did not approve of drivers taking the matter into their own hand but called on the authorities to take more stringent action, saying that only 33 prosecutions were launched over unlicensed ride-hailing services last year.
    This comes as the government announced an increase of HK$2 dollars in flagfalls, citing rising insurance premium and higher maintenance costs.
    Is it time to clamp down on ride-hailing services once and for all? Or should the government create a legal framework to let other players into the market?
    After 9:45, we look into Hong Kong's first breastmilk bank which is poised to open next year.

    Future of HK media landscape / Mental Health survey on children and adolescent

    主持人:Danny Gittings and Paul Zimmerman

    On Thursday’s Backchat, we’re talking about the changing landscape of Hong Kong’s media industry.

    Earlier this week, TVB announced it’ll lay off more than 300 people as part of a restructuring plan that'll merge two free-to-air channels to create one that’s more focused on a younger audience.

    Hong Kong’s dominant broadcaster said while it would continue investing in prime-time production, it’ll cut budgets for fringe-hour content and axe non-performing programmes.

    It added that it expects to save a further HK$100 million in content costs by 2024, having announced HK$260 million in annual cost savings earlier this year.

     After 9:45am…we find out more about a new study on the mental health of children and adolescents.

    9:05-9:30am Dr Florin Serban, Lecturer in the School of Communication at HKBU

    9:05am-9:45am Marcel Fenez, President of Fenez Media limited

    9:30am-9:45am Vera Yuen Lecturer, Faculty of Business and. Economics, University of Hong Kong
