    Basic Housing Units / Labubu craze / Microplastics awareness survey / Month of Portugal

    On Tuesday's programme, we talked about the government’s drive to improve living conditions for people who live in subdivided flats. New regulations to be brought in will mandate basic requirements for shoebox flats – including on size, height, and things like requiring windows and toilets in each unit. The first step is for landlords whose flats don’t currently fulfil these new requirements to start registering with authorities next year, before making the needed renovations. We talked to a lawmaker to see how things are going.

    We also looked into the Labubu craze that has taken the world by storm.

    We then spoke to experts about the dangers of microplastics before finding out all about the “Month of Portugal” in Macau.

    GLOBAL FOCUS - Social unrest in Britain / Cap on virtual banks

    主持人:Danny Gittings and Paul Zimmerman

    On Friday's Backchat, Global Focus talks about the unrest in the UK.

    Violent protests have erupted across Britain after false social media posts claimed a foreign asylum seeker was responsible for the fatal stabbing of three children. Far-right extremists attacked mosques and migrant accommodation, prompting both Hong Kong and a number of countries to issue travel warnings.

    But Prime Minister Keir Starmer vowed to bring an end to what he called "far right thuggery" and warned that the perpetrators will feel the "full force of the law".

    So how powerful has social media been in fuelling disinformation? How challenging are these events for the new government? Are police and judicial authorities coping?  

    After 9:45, we look into the Monetary Authority's decision that Hong Kong already has enough virtual banks.
