The Chief Secretary for Administration, Mr Chan Kwok-ki; the Secretary for Security, Mr Tang Ping-keung; and the Commissioner of Police, Mr Siu Chak-yee, officiated at the Opening Ceremony of Junior Police Call (JPC) Summer Camp 2022 at the JPC Permanent Activity Centre today (August 16).
     
     With the theme of "Be a Leader · Fight Crime Together", the JPC Summer Camp incorporated the five elements of JPC’s new strategy "IDEAS", in which "I" stands for Innovation; "D" stands for Discipline; "E" stands for Exposure; "A" stands for Adventure and "S" stands for "Synergy". JPC scheme aimed to encourage young people to step out of their comfort zone, enhancing their resilience, team spirit and leadership skills and cultivating positive values through diversified activities. At the same time, it also promoted fight crime messages among the participants.

     Speaking at the ceremony, Mr Tang encouraged JPC members to unleash their potential and strive for continuous improvement. He hoped that they would develop a sense of responsibility and discipline by participating in JPC's diversified activities, thereby becoming law-abiding citizens and contributing to the development of the city and the country.

     It is the first time for the JPC to organise summer camp at the JPC Permanent Activity Centre, in which six adventure day camps will be held in August, providing training to more than 600 JPC members. They will take part in a variety of activities, including the Pat Heung Race, zip lining, Chinese-style foot drill and flag raising training, and virtual reality game on anti-drug.
