On Tuesday’s Backchat, we’re talking about anti-smoking policies. The government is planning to table 10 tobacco control measures to the Legislative Council by the end of this year, including a ban on flavoured cigarettes, implementing plain packages for all tobacco products and banning smoking while standing in a queue.

On Wednesday's post mid-autumn public holiday Backchat, we're talking about all things related to pet ownership in Hong Kong.
A survey conducted in March found that owners were spending on average close to HK$700,000 on their pets during the lifespan of their animal friends, making the local pet economy one of the most lucrative in the region.
From organic food products to hotels and spas, luxury services for pets continue to expand, along with the number of pet-friendly establishments.
Are you a pet owner? We want to know how much you're spending.
After 9:45, we hear from a local charity which is collecting mooncakes for the underprivileged.
