    Halloween economy / Crowd control in Lan Kwai Fong / Planned law amendments on abandoned cars

    On Thursday’s Backchat, we’re talking about Halloween, as the city’s nightlife spots and tourists attractions are gearing up for the celebrations.

    From restaurants providing themed menus to costume shops competing to sell the most frightening outfits, Halloween has long been seen as a major revenue driver for businesses.
    Despite this year’s date falling on a weekday, authorities are expecting 25,000 revelers in Lan Kwai Fong alone, but questions remain as to how much people are ready to spend.
    Meanwhile, security is expected to be tight, and the police have installed 50 new CCTV cameras with crowd counting capabilities. Facial and car plate recognition functions will be added next year as part of a territory-wide upgrade of video surveillance systems.
    So how popular has Halloween become? Are this year’s celebrations attracting people from across the border? And is AI going to relieve some of the crowd control duties from the police?
    After 9:45, we’re talking about a planned change in the law to tackle the problem of unwanted vehicles being abandoned.

    Sports in schools / Ethnic minority care teams

    Presenters:Janice Wong and Danny Gittings

    On Thursday's Backchat, as Hong Kong celebrates its Olympics success, we'll be asking what more can be done to promote sports development, especially in local schools?

    The government is planning to begin asking primary schools to submit grades for their students’ performance in Physical Education classes, in a move which may encourage many to take the subject more seriously.
    So how can we strengthen sports culture among Hong Kong's youth? And should we expect a flood of parents signing up their children for swimming and fencing classes in the wake of Hong Kong's Olympics success in these sports?
    After 9:30, we learn more about the newly launched ethnic minority care teams.
