    Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to China / New research on late treatment of strokes

    For the first edition of Global Focus we're talking about Russian President Vladimir Putin's state visit to China.

    President Xi Jinping called on the relations between China and Russia to be cherished and cared for by both sides, as the two neighbours seek to bolster economic ties.
    Under a new agreement, the two countries are expected to deepen strategic partnership and reinforce their 75 years of diplomatic relations, a friendship Putin described as a "stabilising" force.
    This year's visit also comes amidst high tensions over the war in Ukraine, with China poised to reinforce its involvement in brokering peace between Ukraine and Russia.
    Which sectors of the economy are most likely to benefit from this deepening cooperation? And can China bring the Russia-Ukraine conflict to an end? We'll find out.

    In the last part of the programme, we learn more from a research looking into the effectiveness of late treatment of stroke.

    Hong Kong's road resilience in the face of extreme weather / Calls to accreditate sign language interpreters

    主持人:Jim Gould and Mike Rowse

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we're talking about the impact of extreme weather on infrastructure.
    A section of Clearwater Bay Road collapsed at the weekend, amid the heavy downpour which triggered landslides and caused flooding in several parts of the New Territories.
    No injuries were reported, but the incident has again focused attention on the resilience of the territory's roads, with climate scientists warning that heavy rain storms will become a more common occurrence.
    Authorities promised last year to improve drainage systems, but experts remain divided over the cost and feasibility of building new tunnels in rural areas.
    How should town planners approach this challenge?
    After 9:45, we discuss calls for accreditation of sign language interpreters, with some deaf defendants said to have been misinterpreted in court cases.
