Olympic Games wrap-up / Astronauts stuck in and water discovery on Mars
2024-08-14
On Wednesday's Backchat, we're talking about sports development in Hong Kong, following the 2024 Paris Olympic Games which wrapped up on Sunday.
Returning in stages, our athletes were given a triumphant welcome, with the main focus on fencing stars Vivian Kong and Edgar Cheung, who both won gold. Swimmer Siobhan Haughey was also praised for her performance in bringing home two bronze medals -- in the women's 200 metres and 100 metres freestyle.
The Chief Executive, John Lee, congratulated the SAR's athletes for delivering historic results, while pledging to continue allocating resources to develop elite sports and identify young people with potential.
Have parents' attitudes towards sports changed? Are sportspeople given adequate career opportunities after reaching the height of their abilities? And which direction should our policymakers take?
After 9:45, we learn more from the latest developments in space, with uncertainly over the return of two NASA astronauts currently stranded on board the International Space Station.
