    On Friday's Backchat, Global Focus talks about the safety of journalists reporting from war zones.

    Iranian President Raisi's death / 50 years of China-Malaysia relations / Calligraphy and cognitive health

    Presenters:Andrew Work and Rainbow Leung

    On this week’s edition of Global Focus, we're discussing the life, death and legacy of Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi who died in a helicopter crash earlier this week.

    The death of the President with his Foreign Minister is likely to prompt a power struggle in the cleric dominated nation. We explore his legacy and the national and regional implications of the succession battle. An election is mandated to take place in 50 days from the confirmation of his death.
    After 9:30, we're looking into Malaysia's Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's visit to Hong Kong and the mainland, as China and Malaysia celebrate 50 years of relations.
    And after 9:45, we're learning about how cognitive activities can prevent dementia, following the release of a study that found Chinese calligraphy beneficial to our brain’s health.
