On Friday's programme, we began the show by talking about Hong Kong's involvement at the Consumer Electronics Show in the US, one of the world's largest tech conventions.
We then focused on health, because a study has found that nearly one in two people in the SAR is overweight, or obese.
After the break, we turned to France, where the government faces renewed political pressure following large-scale protests against the EU-Mercosur trade deal. The agreement was approved despite France’s opposition in the EU Council. Can French President Emmanuel Macron withstand another political crisis?
