******************************************************************************************
     To mark the 5th anniversary of the promulgation and implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law (HKNSL), the Security Bureau (SB) today (June 22) led disciplined services, youth groups of the disciplined services and auxiliary services and, for the first time, collaborated with youth uniformed groups subvented by the Home and Youth Affairs Bureau (HYAB) to hold a flag-raising ceremony at the Fire and Ambulance Services Academy. The event aimed to enhance public understanding of the HKNSL and deepen awareness of safeguarding national security.

     The flag-raising ceremony was officiated by the Chief Secretary for Administration, Mr Chan Kwok-ki. The Police Band, disciplined services ceremonial guard, and youth uniformed groups marched in with Chinese-style foot drill. The Fire Services Department's flag party conducted the flag-raising ceremony during the playing and singing of the national anthem, accompanied by a fly-past by a helicopter of the Government Flying Service (GFS). The ceremony concluded with a performance by the Police Band.

     Addressing the ceremony, Mr Chan said that the promulgation and implementation of the HKNSL have laid a solid legal foundation for safeguarding national sovereignty, security, and development interests. The HKNSL is a solid shield protecting Hong Kong, safeguarding the steadfast and successful implementation of "one country, two systems", and protecting the fundamental well-being of Hong Kong people. Mr Chan praised the disciplined services for their unwavering commitment to implementing the holistic approach to national security and dedication to ensuring national security and social stability. He also encouraged young people to be the future pillars of the country and expressed hope that the whole community would continue to work together to protect national security.

     Following the flag-raising ceremony, Mr Chan officiated the award presentation for the SB and disciplined and auxiliary services' literature and art creation competition commemorating the 5th anniversary of the HKNSL. The competition encouraged colleagues to create artistic works conveying how the HKNSL fortifies the safeguarding of national security and protecting social stability.

     Participating teams in the flag-raising ceremony came from the Hong Kong Police Force, the Immigration Department, the Customs and Excise Department, the Correctional Services Department, the Fire Services Department, the GFS, and youth uniformed groups under various disciplined services, the Civil Aid Service and the Auxiliary Medical Service, including the Customs Youth Leader Corps, the Fire and Ambulance Services Teen Connect, the Immigration Department Youth Leaders Corps, the Junior Police Call, the Rehabilitation Pioneer Leaders, the Hong Kong Air Cadet Corps, the Civil Aid Service Cadet Corps, and the Auxiliary Medical Service Cadet Corps.
