    CE John Lee's Zhejiang visit / Cathay Pacific's March performance / Housing trend report / Cinema Day

    In the first part of Friday's Backchat, we talked about Chief Executive John Lee's visit to Zhejiang, where he met with representatives of six start-ups, otherwise known as the Six Little Dragons.

    The CE called for more cooperation between IT enterprises in Zhejiang and Hong Kong, and more joint projects to be launched.
    Following the news, we looked at the state of the city's aviation sector, as Hong Kong's flagship carrier — Cathay Pacific — announced a 19.8 percent year-on-year increase in passenger numbers for March, reaching 2.25 million.
    Meanwhile, its cargo arm saw a growth of 10.6 percent year-on-year, totalling nearly 150,000 tonnes.
    In the latter part of the programme, we heard about the findings of a new housing trend report, and found out more about "Cinema Day" that's coming up next month.

    Premium taxi licenses / Smartphone stethoscope

    主持人:Danny Gittings and Mike Rowse

    On Monday's Backchat, we're talking about premium taxis.

    The first such luxury cabs are expected to hit the streets in the next few months, with more than 1,500 to follow by next year, after transport authorities approved five premium taxi fleet licenses.
    Fleet operators will be required to accept e-payment and use vehicles less than three years old, while passengers will also be given the option to book the cabs online.
    The move was largely welcomed by taxi representatives, although critics have challenged the "premium" designation, arguing that such standards should be imposed on all of the city's 18,000 cabs. Questions have also been raised about the lack of newcomers, as the approved operators are all well established in the city's taxi trade.
    Is this a step in the right direction? Tell us what you think.
    After 9:45, we're talking about a new medical-grade smartphone stethoscope which can help detect heart diseases.
