  "summary": "Hong Kong's upcoming policy address is expected to include measures to help local media outlets expand globally. According to the South China Morning Post, the \"go global\" initiative, led by Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu, aims to assist local media in reaching readers beyond the city.\n\nIn a separate development, a Hong Kong court has convicted Dow Jones, the publisher of The Wall Street Journal, of attempting to block a reporter from becoming the head of a press union. The court ruled that Dow Jones was guilty of wilfully preventing the journalist, Selina Cheng, from exercising her right to become an officer of a registered trade union.\n\nA study by Greenpeace has found that nearly 40 per cent of Hong Kong's elderly live in districts with medium to high or high-extreme heat risk. The NGO identified Kwun Tong, Kwai Tsing, Tuen Mun, and Wong Tai Sin as the highest-risk areas, citing factors such as old buildings, low-income elderly residents, and a lack of outdoor green space and heat shelters.",
