Speaking at the ceremony, Mr Tang said that JPC has been established for 51 years and has been proactively planning and promoting diversified activities which enhance the youth's sense of responsibility, confidence and social commitment, serving as a key base for fighting crime as well as a cradle nurturing future leaders. He expressed his gratitude to members of the JPC Central Advisory Board, JPC Honorary Presidents from different districts, supporters from all sectors and members of the Hong Kong Police Force (HKPF).
He encouraged JPC members to fulfill three roles, including "Anti-drug Ambassadors" — to say "no" to drugs and help disseminate anti-drug messages; "Fight Crime Partners" — to promote crime prevention messages and enhance law-abiding awareness in the society; and "Youth Leaders" — to enhance leadership skills and broaden horizons, as well as serving Hong Kong and the country through practical actions.
After the opening ceremony, Mr Tang and other guests visited the booth set up by the Narcotics Bureau of the HKPF, and also facilities for activities such as rope course, abseiling at the venue, while interacting with JPC members.
The annual JPC Summer Camp, lasting for four days and three nights, offers various activities and training to promote anti-drug and fight crime messages among the youth. It also helps them build positive values while enhancing their perseverance, team spirit and leadership skills. The summer camp this year, attracting over 200 JPC members, features competitive games incorporating police knowledge and investigative elements, as well as adventure-based challenges.
