    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.

    Mental health among ethnic minorities / Railway heritage preservation

    Presenters:Andrew Work and Rainbow Leung

    On Friday's Backchat, we're talking about mental health among ethnic minorities.

    A new survey shows that almost 30% of ethnic minorities were at risk of developing mental disorders, a trend the survey organiser, Hong Kong Christian Service, attributes to factors including a lack of awareness on where to seek help, cultural barriers as well as time constraints.
    To help tackle the problem, the group has teamed up with the Chinese University to launch a multilingual online platform to provide ethnic minorities better access to a range of mental health resources.
    So how useful will this new online platform be? What more can be done to support ethnic minorities here?
    After 9:45, we talk about railway heritage preservation.
