Domestic LPG ban in eateries will burden consumers, DAP Youth warns
DAP Youth has urged the government to postpone a ban on the use of household liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in eateries, warning that the move could burden consumers as food operators will be forced to raise their prices. DAP Youth public policy bureau chief Jason Ng highlighted that the price of commercial LPG is nearly three times higher than its domestic counterpart, with many small eateries and hawkers still relying on subsidised gas to conduct their businesses.

Hong Kong triathletes set National Games glory target, as China show run power
Head coach Andrew Wright has warned the leading Hong Kong male triathletes they have six months to make significant running improvements, or risk waving goodbye to National Games glory. Advertisement None of the city's men or women met the Games selection criteria at Saturday's Chengdu World Triathlon Cup, where Jason Ng Tai-long's 26th place was the best of it for Hong Kong. Wright said he will investigate why Oscar Coggins was off-colour, after the Tokyo Olympian recorded a heart rate 30-beats-per-minute lower than in his two previous races, and 'blew to pieces' on the running leg before a 40th-place finish. Robin Elg, who was hoping to receive his passport in time to compete in November's Games, finished 28th – six seconds slower than Ng's time of one hour, 41 minutes and 35 seconds. 'Robin was our stand-out performer,' Wright said. 'He ran a big personal best after coming back from a stress fracture. He'd have probably been top-20 if the race hadn't come together on the bike, which was a big disadvantage for him, because he's a swim-biker.'
