    Hong Kong's friendliness to people with disabilities / BOCHK Science and Innovation Prize / Operation Santa Claus 2024

    On Wednesday’s Backchat, we’re talking about Hong Kong’s friendliness to people with disabilities.

    This comes as Paralympic athlete Ho Yuen-kei was barred from entering a Causeway Bay restaurant, after being told that her wheelchair could obstruct other patrons. The eatery’s management later apologized, promising to offer more disability awareness training to its staff.
    Rights’ groups have called on the Equal Opportunities’ Commission to enhance anti-discrimination education, adding that it was not the first time a disabled person had been denied service in Hong Kong.
    Last July, two visually impaired passengers were required to leave a Tokyo-bound flight after staff were unsure whether the pair could travel unaccompanied.
    Have you or a loved one ever been denied service on the ground of disability? And how can we make Hong Kong more accessible to the disabled?
    After 9:30, we speak to the organisers of the BOCHK Science and Innovation Prize 2024.
    And after 9:45, RTHK’s Jim Gould joins us to talk about Operation Santa Claus 2024.

    Eco-tourism / Community dispute resolution scheme

    Presenters:Jim Gould and Ada Wong

    On Tuesday’s Backchat, we’re talking about eco-tourism.
    The government is planning to launch new eco-tours to promote the territory’s biodiversity to locals and visitors.
    They are due to launch early next year, and will give nature lovers a chance to explore the territory's country's parks, outlying islands and other ecological attractions.
    The authorities are also planning to expand the number of wetland parks at a time when policymakers face increased pressure to strike a balance between urban development and conservation.
    So how much can eco-tourism contribute to the economy? And can the countryside cope with more visitors?
    After 9:45, we’re talking about an upcoming scheme aimed at resolving community disputes, without having to go through the court system.
