Overseas promotion of Hong Kong artists/ Aurora phenomenon
On Tuesday's Backchat, we're talking about Hong Kong's role as an international cultural centre.
Local think-tank the Hong Kong Coalition is calling on the city's arts bodies to boost the sector's outreach on the mainland as well as overseas, highlighting the benefits this would have in enhancing the territory's competitiveness.
The organisation also hopes to see more measures to turn the SAR into a regional intellectual property centre, a commitment outlined in China's 14th Five Year Plan.
In March this year, the West Kowloon Cultural District Authority signed agreements with 22 overseas and mainland museums in what analysts saw as a significant step towards the sector's internationalisation.
Are we on the track to becoming a global leader in arts and intellectual property?
After 9:45, we learn more about the aurora light shows seen in recent days in both the northern and southern hemispheres, caused by geomagnetic storms emanating from solar activity.

Northern Metropolis development / Swimming literacy programs
主持人：Jim Gould and Ada Wong
On Tuesday's Backchat we're talking about the government's Northern Metropolis development plans.
In his policy address, the Chief Executive John Lee explained that the new town would be divided into four different zones, covering logistics, innovation and technology, boundary commerce, and environmental land and water-based recreation.
At a news conference on Monday, Development Secretary Bernadette Linn highlighted that while studies were ongoing, the administration hoped to begin land resumption procedures by 2027, with 40 percent of flats to be constructed by 2032.
Described as "the new engine of Hong Kong's development," the Northern Metropolis is expected to create 500,000 new jobs and provide 500,000 housing units and boost Hong Kong's integration with the Greater Bay Area.
How are the plans likely to unfold? And are there adequate measures to protect biodiversity in the area?
After 9:45, we talk about an upcoming round-the-island swimming race to raise funds for an ongoing initiative to teach local people and and domestic helpers to swim.
