Chief Secretary Chan Kwok-ki, Secretary for Security Tang Ping-keung and Commissioner of Police Siu Chak-yee officiated at the opening ceremony of the Junior Police Call (JPC) Summer Camp 2022.

With the theme of "Be a Leader · Fight Crime Together", the summer camp, held at the JPC Permanent Activity Centre today, incorporated the five elements of the JPC’s new “IDEAS” strategy. The acronym stands for innovation, discipline, exposure, adventure and synergy.

The JPC scheme aims 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. It also promotes 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 expressed the hope that they would develop a sense of responsibility and discipline by participating in the JPC's diversified activities, thereby becoming law-abiding citizens and contributing to the development of the city and the country.

This is the first time the JPC organised a 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.

The members will take part in a variety of activities, including the Pat Heung Race, zip lining, Chinese-style foot drill and flag raising training as well as an anti-drug virtual reality game.
