Secretary for Justice Teresa Cheng today attended the award presentation ceremony of the "Key to the Future" Short Video Competition organised by the Department of Justice, which aims to enhance rule of law awareness among youths.

The competition is the first of its kind designated for secondary students in the Rule of Law Enlightenment programme under the department's Vision 2030 for Rule of Law initiative.

It received an encouraging response of 70 video entries. Most of them focused on the law-abiding spirit, showing that the students are aware of the utmost importance of abiding by the law in a society's rule of law.

By making a three-minute short video, participants demonstrated their creativity to promote the rule of law and shared their thoughts on its future development, the department noted.

Addressing the event, Ms Cheng said she hopes that students would be enlightened to share their thoughts on the meaning of the rule of law from different perspectives through the competition, with a view to strengthening the proper understanding and practice of the rule of law.
