Chief Secretary Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor and Wang Zhimin, deputy director of the central government's liaison office in Hong Kong, officiate at the installation of Y Elites Group, a club backed by the scions of Hong Kong's tycoons, at the Convention and Exhibition Centre. Lam is likely to face media pressure to break her silence on the conflict of interest row that has led to calls for development minister Paul Chan Mo-po to quit. Chan has refused to step down after his wife and her family were revealed to own land in the same development area.

Pakistan's anti-terrorism court will indict former military ruler Pervez Musharraf with criminal conspiracy and the murder of Benazir Bhutto, opposition leader and former prime minister. Musharraf, who took power in a 1999 coup, is facing multiple court cases, involving two counts of treason. Musharraf ruled Pakistan from 1999 to 2008 after leading a coup against Nawaz Sharif, who is now back in office after his party won an election in May. In 2007, Bhutto had returned to Pakistan after a decade in exile to contest a general election. She was assassinated in a suicide attack at a rally in Rawalpindi in December.
