Train fares will go up by 2.3 percent this year under an updated fare adjustment mechanism that takes into account profit earned in the MTR Corporation's property sector. It means most rides will cost an additional 40 cents or less. Leung Pak-hei reports:

Roundtable lawmaker and former railway boss, Michael Tien, says he is "extremely unhappy" that the MTR's new fare formula only takes into account profit from property development and not other sources of income, such as recurring rental income and advertising revenue. He told Vanessa Cheng that this meant just a minimal reduction in fares:

Chief Executive John Lee has defended the policing of a march in Tseung Kwan O on Sunday, which was the first one authorised by the force in three years. Protesters had to wear number tags and march in a cordoned-off area. Lee said police had a responsibility to ensure protests did not pose a risk to public order or national security.

She also welcomed plans to allow more people to access the temporary homes, instead of reserving 80 percent for those waiting for a public flat for at least three years.
