    Water price increase proposals / Road subsidence incident in Sham Shui Po

    Presenters:Jenny Lam and Ada Wong

    On Tuesday's Backchat, we're talking about the government's proposals to raise water bills. Citing budget deficit and record low recovery rates of water services operating accounts, authorities are suggesting a gradual increase in water services for the first time in almost 30 years.

    Catering representatives have expressed concerns over the plans, stressing that this could lead to a chain reaction and impact operating costs at a time when more consumers flock to restaurants in nearby Shenzhen. Would a hike in water bills impact the prices of other goods and services?
    After 9:45, we talk to a surveyor on a recent road subsidence incident in Sham Shui Po. Is this affecting the structural safety of nearby buildings?
