    US President Donald Trump's first measures since taking office

    On Friday's Global Focus, we’re talking about US President Donald Trump’s move to dismiss his predecessor’s Diversity, Equality and Inclusion policies (DEI).

    The newly sworn-in President has directed all federal agencies to put an end to inclusion programs and restore “merit-based” hirings. Government departments have been ordered to put all DEI staff on paid leave until plans are developed to lay them off.
    The new cabinet has also vowed to take a tough stance on immigration through a spate of executive orders expected to give federal agencies more power to tackle illegal immigration. Mr Trump has also ordered to put an end to birthright citizenship, a move strongly condemned by rights groups and several states, 22 of which have launched legal action against what they argue is unconstitutional.
    In the second half of the show, we talk about the new administration’s foreign and trade policy.

    EU election results / International Gastronomy Forum, Macau

    主持人:Brian Wong and Paul Zimmerman

    On this week's programme, we're talking about the EU election results, as far-right parties made significant gains seconding the centre-right.

    In a move sending shock waves within his own camp, French President Emmanuel Macron called for snap legislative elections later this month, after his pro-EU movement Renaissance garnered less than half the National Rally’s support.
    Some analysts say that President Macron hopes the snap elections will help contain the surge of the far-right, a risky gamble critics say could turn against odds and see Marine Le Pen's acolyte Jordan Bardella become Prime Minister.
    Meanwhile in Germany, the centre-right CDU/CSU alliance claimed victory, followed by the far-right AFD which became the strongest party in eastern states.
    What do these results tell us about the EU's trajectory? We find out.
    After 9:45, we speak to Macau's tourism chief Maria Helena de Senna Fernandes, as the SAR is hosting a 10-day gastronomy forum
