    Tourism blueprint / Streamlined vehicle registration mechanism

    On Thursday’s programme, we’relooking into the latest tourism blueprint. The government on Monday said it wants to nurture and develop tourism by focusing on culture, sports, ecotourism and mega-events, in a move to bring at least HK$120 billion into the economy.

    Authorities aim to create hundreds of thousands of jobs in the next five years, while boosting the city’s appeal to travellers from the Middle East and ASEAN countries. There are also plans to encourage more people to take up jobs as tour guides, by strengthening cooperation with local universities.
    After 9:44, we learn more about the Transport Department’s streamlined vehicle licensing requirements.

    Hong Kong's walkability / Expected COVID rebound during Lunar New Year

    主持人:Janice Wong and Paul Zimmerman

    On Thursday's Backchat, we ask: are we walking as much as we should

    A new survey has found that 10 percent of Hongkongers claim to take daily walks lasting at least 30 minutes –up from 7.8-percent in 2022.
    Thirty percent of respondents to the survey conducted by the World Green Organisation said they take half-hour-plus walks once or twice a week; but the most lethargic respondents admitted they never walk for 30 minutes on any given day.
    Survey organisers say while the percentage of daily long-walkers are up, most Hong Kong people still don’t spend enough time walking – a habit that’s not only good for you, it’s also environmentally friendly.
    The vast majority of respondents in the same survey – 92 percent – also expressed support for adopting a low-carbon lifestyle – by doing things like taking public transportation or using less electricity.
    But are people actually walking the talk? Are Hongkongers not walking enough? Are people ready to sweat more to go green?
    After 9:45, we chat with a medical expert about an expected rise in Covid cases during the Lunar New Year holidays.
