******************************************************************************************
     Hong Kong Customs today (November 12) held the "Customs YES" Summer Internship Programme 2026 Certificate Presentation Ceremony at the Customs Headquarters Building to present certificates of appreciation and internship certificates to the representatives of the supporting organisations and "Customs YES" members respectively.

     Delivering a speech at the ceremony, the Commissioner of Customs and Excise, Mr Chan Tsz-tat, said that Hong Kong Customs has been organising the Summer Internship Programme for six consecutive years. This year, a total of 150 internship positions were offered both locally and on the Mainland, attracting more than 1 200 applications. He expressed his appreciation to the supporting organisations for their active participation and the mentors for their dedicated guidance, which enabled young people to gain practical workplace experience, explore their career aspirations and better prepare themselves for further studies and employment.

     This year's programme expanded its Mainland internship network to Sichuan and offered more internship opportunities in public service and charitable organisations, enabling young people to gain exposure to different industries and public affairs, and to deepen their understanding of the country's development and community needs. Mr Chan encouraged young people to make the most of these opportunities, better equip themselves for the future, and apply their knowledge and skills to serve society and contribute to the development of the country and Hong Kong.

     Looking ahead, Customs will continue to support the youth development policies of the country and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government. Through "Customs YES", Customs will strengthen collaboration with various sectors to expand internship and exchange opportunities, and leverage its international co-operation network to support members' participation in more international activities, nurturing a new generation with a strong sense of national identity, a global perspective and a commitment to society.
