    Washington DC plane crash / Impact of US tariffs on the shipping industry

    On Thursday’s Backchat, we’re talking about last week’s tragic collision between an American Airlines jet and a US Black Hawk helicopter in Washington DC which killed 67 people.

    Investigators are still working to determine the cause of America’s worst aviation disaster in more than 20 years and how the two aircraft were allowed to get so close to one another.
    While US President Donald Trump suggested his predecessors’ diversity policies could be to blame, the accident has re-ignited debates over the safety of some of the world’s most congested airports.
    So what do we know so far about this accident? Have our skies become too congested? We’ll ask the experts.
    In the second part of the programme, we discuss the short-lived suspension of parcel services from mainland China and Hong Kong to the United States, following US President Donald Trump's imposition of tariffs on China.

    GLOBAL FOCUS - Sri Lanka's new President / Japan PM election

    主持人:Brian Wong and CM Chan

    On Friday's Global Focus, we're discussing Sri Lankan politics.

    People's Liberation Front leader and Marxist-leaning politician Anura Kumara Dissanayake was sworn as Sri Lanka's new President, at a time when the debt-ridden country recovers from the economic collapse and political turmoil of 2022.
    From balancing the country's relations with regional superpowers to renegotiating deals with lenders, Mr Dissanayanke's new role will be anything but plain-sailing.
    So is the country's socio-economic landscape headed towards change? We'll find out.
    After 9:30, we speak to a Japan-based commentator and an academic, as Parliament is expected to elect a new Prime Minister from the ruling Liberal Democratic Party.
