    APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting / Cost of living crisis in Greece / Are BRICS members ready for a Trump return?

    On Friday's Backchat, Global Focus talks about APEC and whether the alliance is strong enough to tackle ongoing geopolitical uncertainties.

    The 31st edition of the APEC Economic Leaders’ Week held in the Peruvian capital Lima wrapped-up last Saturday, with the leaders of the bloc’s 21 economies calling for a concerted effort in tackling issues of common interest including climate change.
    Attendees reiterated the need for a rules-based multilateral trading system and pledged to push for reforms of the World Trade Organization’s dispute resolution mechanism.
    Meanwhile, Hong Kong signed a free trade agreement with Peru and the two jurisdictions are also negotiating a separate Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement.
    At 9:30, we’ll be learning more about the ongoing unrest in Greece, which is fueled by rising costs of living and pensions.
    And after 9:45, we’ll look into how BRICS countries are preparing for a potential hike in tariffs ahead of US President-elect Donald Trump’s swearing-in in January.

    Hong Kong's role in China's space program / Climate action: discussion UNHCR's Andrew Harper

    Presenters:Janice Wong and Jenny Lam

    On Wednesday’s Backchat, we're talking about China's space program.

    The Shenzhou-16 spacecraft has successfully returned to Earth on Tuesday after a five month mission aboard the Tiangong space station.
    During their time in space, the three member crew, which involved the first civilian astronaut, carried out a total of 70 scientific experiments. This includes successfully cultivating fresh vegetables in the Tiangong space station.
    They also carried out a near eight-hour long space walk, delivered a live, interactive lecture, which notably involved lighting a match in the space station.
    What is the significance of this latest space mission that’s been described as a “complete success”? What role can Hong Kong play in the mainland’s space development?
    After 9:40, we discuss climate change with a senior representative from the United Nations
