When isn’t it flu season? But what’s even more worrying this year is that there have been reports of a SARS like illness in the middle East, and – closer to home – a new bird flu strain affecting humans in mainland China.

The dockers’ strike at the HIT container terminal began two weeks ago. Some 500 members of the Confederation of Trade Unions are on strike. 200 have been protesting outside the Kwai Chung Container Terminal. Hong Kong’s hardly a hotbed of industrial action, but despite that the strike seems to have struck a chord with the public. But it’s a strike that’s taking on a particularly Hong Kong character, as two groups of unions, one of which is not actually striking, have been invited to negotiate are actually negotiating with the contractors, while HIT, which runs the port, is merely sitting on the sidelines. More on that in part two. TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。# r5 O+ Z5 O' r
