    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.

    Malaysia's bid to join Brics / Summer jobs

    主持人:Jenny Lam and Rainbow Leung

    On Friday's Backchat Global Focus, we're talking about Malaysia's plan to join the informal economic and trade group known as BRICS, after its founder members, which include China.

    The Southeast Asian nation may soon become the group's tenth member in what some analysts say could further challenge the US dollar's dominance in international trade.
    Earlier this week, Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said his country would submit a formal application as soon as it receives feedback from South Africa, which currently chairs the organisation.
    NATO member Turkey is also hoping to join.
    Is Malaysia recalibrating its position on the global stage? And how has this move been received by its ASEAN neighbours?
    After 9:45, we learn more from a labour lawyer on how to avoid summer job scams after several students accused their employers of not paying them as advertised.


    9:05am-9:45am: Malaysia's bid to join BRICS

    9:05am-9:45am: Prof Geoffrey Williams, Malaysia based Economist and Policy Specialist
