On April 15, the National Security Education Day, the Hong Kong Police College (HKPC) Open Day was held to enhance the public’s understanding of the importance of national security to Hong Kong’s long-term prosperity and stability, and the Force’s work in safeguarding national security.
The open day was themed “National Security, Foundation of Stability and Prosperity”. In addition to exhibition panels on national security education, booths were set up to introduce the relevant work of the Security Bureau and its disciplinary forces and auxiliary service. Members of the public could take part in the virtual reality games to experience policing work and watch the police officers’ on-site demonstration and equipment display to enhance their understanding of the Force. The open day featured a rich diversity of programmes. In addition to visiting various exhibition booths, visitors could enjoy the grand show performed by the Force Escort Group, Police Band, Police Dog Unit and Counter Terrorism Response Unit to understand how different formations of the Force worked closely to safeguard national security.
The Force seeks to raise public awareness of national security and being law abiding through the event so that they will understand the inseparable link between national security and their daily life for them to recognise and support the Force’s work in safeguarding the national security domain.
