    Circular fashion initiatives / Hung Shui Kiu transit system / Audible traffic signal revamp

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we discussed fast-fashion and its impact on the environment.

    NGO 'Redress' has recently launched a campaign to encourage sustainable fashion, while another Hong Kong-based platform, Open Lab, has introduced an AI-powered system to boost garment recycling. We spoke to representatives from both organisations. Is sustainable fashion a workable model that can reduce damage to the environment? Or is it just another trend for corporations to 'dress-up' the issue?
    After the break, we asked a government spokesperson more about the proposed Hung Shui Kiu Smart and Green Mass Transit System, which the government is aiming to invite tender for next year.
    Towards the end of the show, we discussed the government's move to replace all of Hong Kong’s electronic audible traffic signal units to provide greater convenience for people who are visually impaired.

    Hong Kong airport development plans / Discussion with a local doctor back from Gaza

    主持人:Andrew Work and Rainbow Leung

    On today's Backchat, we're talking about developments at the airport.

    In its annual report, the Airport Authority revealed that passenger traffic had reached 80 percent of pre-pandemic levels, with full recovery expected by the end of this year.
    The numbers come as the three-runway system is poised to be commissioned around the same time, while the main terminal will be integrated with SKYCITY and Tung Chung through an autonomous transport system poised to start in 2028.
    But despite the encouraging figures, it isn't all plain sailing. Speaking to local media, the authority's acting CEO Vivian Cheung warned that Russian airspace restrictions remained a hindrance, as Western carriers are banned from flying over Russia owing to sanctions over the invasion of Ukraine, leading to greater fuel costs.
    How well is the airport's recovery proceeding? Is Hong Kong keeping up with the competition? How much of an impact do geopolitical conflicts have? We'll talk to the experts.
    After 9:45, we speak to a doctor who just came back from Gaza.
