    Welfare of the mentally challenged / Urban resilience in the face of extreme weather

    On Tuesday's Backchat, we're discussing issues surrounding the welfare of mentally disabled people.

    This comes as a 78-year-old man was found dead, with his intellectually challenged son unharmed besides his body. The tragedy was brought to light last Thursday after building management staff detected a foul smell, with preliminary findings estimating that the elderly carer died one to two days prior to the discovery.

    The tragedy has renewed calls to establish a list of "high risk" residents, as some care givers may themselves be in need of help. In late 2023, two intellectually challenged brothers in their fifties died of suspected starvation after their elderly mother was admitted to hospital. The case sent shock waves throughout the city, prompting various bodies to mobilise dedicated teams watching out for residents at risk.  

    After 9:45, we talk about Hong Kong buildings' resilience in the face of extreme weather, with hourly rainfall poised to increase by up to 40 percent in the next decade.

    Mental health among ethnic minorities / Railway heritage preservation

    主持人:Andrew Work and Rainbow Leung

    On Friday's Backchat, we're talking about mental health among ethnic minorities.

    A new survey shows that almost 30% of ethnic minorities were at risk of developing mental disorders, a trend the survey organiser, Hong Kong Christian Service, attributes to factors including a lack of awareness on where to seek help, cultural barriers as well as time constraints.
    To help tackle the problem, the group has teamed up with the Chinese University to launch a multilingual online platform to provide ethnic minorities better access to a range of mental health resources.
    So how useful will this new online platform be? What more can be done to support ethnic minorities here?
    After 9:45, we talk about railway heritage preservation.
