有六十年歷史的香港青年獎勵計劃(下稱青年獎勵計劃,前為愛丁

堡公爵獎勵計劃),多年來獲香港警察執行處支持,並協助開辦相關課程。青年獎勵計劃早前頒發二○一九年及二○二○年的獎項,今屆共有五位少年警訊會員榮獲最高級別的金章,其中兩位更是現役警務人員。

金章級的參加年齡為十六歲或以上,參加者必須在二十五歲前完成服務科、野外鍛鍊科、技能科、康樂體育科及團體生活科五個科目並達到要求,難度甚高。胡瑞傑是今屆金章得主之一。他

讀書時性格內向,但加入少訊後,他由不愛運動變成長跑好手,由不懂烹

飪到煮得一手好菜。他中學畢業後立志加入警隊,雖然首次投考失敗,但他努力提升面試技巧和體能,最終獲錄取。胡瑞傑於中四時已獲取青年獎勵

計劃銅章。他投身警隊後希望挑戰自己,故於二○一六年直接投考金章。他說:「我最難忘的是野外鍛鍊科,我們須在四日內行走最少六十公里。我們在第二晚要到昂坪露營,當晚下起大雨,氣溫更只有兩度。這次經歷令我明白團隊精神的重要,使我更勇於克服困難。」另一位金章得主朱婉湉的父親為

退休警務人員。受父親影響,她求學時期已加入少訊和制服團體,並於大

學一年級直接投考青年獎勵計劃金章,但過程波折重重。「一起報名的兩位同學於野外鍛鍊科考核時退出,我只好重新組隊再次參與考核,其後完成了團體生活科和技能科,但因弄傷腰部,我被逼放棄康樂體育科的考核。」朱婉湉立志成為警察,大學畢業

後成功投考見習督察。她以從青年獎勵計劃學到的堅毅精神完成警察學院訓練,其間重燃金章夢,最終趕及在二十五歲前完成餘下兩個科目。朱婉湉表示:「年輕人透過參與

少訊和制服團體,培養守法意識及服務社會的精神,因此不少參加者最後會投身各紀律部隊。

而青年獎勵計劃有助參加者建立正面價值觀,藉着同行者的陪伴與鼓勵,使他們能成為社會上的青年領袖。」歡迎二十四歲或以下的警務人員

或文職人員參加青年獎勵計劃。如有查詢,請致電香港警察執行處(電話:2828-7470)。

我是KK,從事輔警工作已有二十多年。除了十五年長期服務獎章,「踏浪者」行動獎章是我第二枚從警隊拿到的功勳。一枚獎章理論上應代表榮耀,但當我每次回想起「踏浪者」行動期間的點滴時,我卻沒有一絲喜悅。還記得二○一九年初,正職和兼職工作讓我忙得透

不過氣,故早已決定放棄缺乏挑戰性的輔警工作,只是沒有時間到警署退回裝備。然而,社會動盪喚醒了我的使命感,所以我再次以行動實踐當年投考輔警時所作出的承諾。行動期間,我曾連續七天日間上班,晚上在警署當值,這些艱辛日子對身心來說非常煎熬。每當想到這兩年間生活的變化,都讓我非常惆悵,

但幸好伴侶一直支持我的理念和堅持。而我最慶幸的就

是當天沒有辭去輔警的工作,繼續貢獻警隊。這個決定也解救了我今天的困局。因全球經濟不景氣,我亦失去了正職工作。曾經以為再沒有挑戰性的輔警工作,今天卻成為了我的主要職務和收入來源。這些經歷正好引證了世事沒有絕對、有失必有得的

道理。我相信所有人也要為自己的決定付出代價,無論決定是對是錯,也要懂得反思和檢討。同時,我們亦必

須要懂得感恩和惜福。我在此謹向在「踏浪者」行動期間流過血汗、受過傷害的警務人員致以最高敬意,你們永遠不會孤獨前行!願大家能堅持初心!

新界南總區指揮官麥展豪於四月二十日及二十一日在新界 南 總 區 總 部 , 向 超 過一百五十名紀律及文職人員頒發「踏浪者」行動獎章。

完成新型雷射槍測試交通總部與大學團隊

▲ 香港科技大學榮休教授譚永炎博士(左一)聯同交通人員進行新型雷射槍測試。

新款雷射槍LTI 20/20 TruCAM II的道路速度測試已在三月十日及十七日於青山公路大欖段完成,參與單位包括交通總部法例檢討及策劃組人員、各交通總區前線人員,以及香港科技大學的研究人員。在交通總部的協調下,

香港科技大學榮休教授譚永炎博士及其研究團隊,聯同來自五個交通總區的三十六名前線人員,包括Provida測速儀操作員及TruCAM II雷射槍操作員,兩天內在安全情況下共進行了三百三十五次、每次三公里的高速度測試。參與是次測試的人員全

程配合香港科技大學研究人員的測試要求,以助他們取得相關的科學數據,以科學實證警隊交通執法的準確及認受性,提升日後相關證據

於法庭的參考價值。是次交通總部與學術界的合作,除了鞏固雷射槍的執法基礎及肯定儀器在香港環境運作的可靠性外,亦突顯了學術界對警務工作的支持。

TruCAM II作為TruCAM I的更新版,各方面的功能均有所提升。除了能拍攝、錄影及儲存超速數據外,TruCAM II的螢幕較大,而拍攝影像的質素亦有所提高,使夜間模式更清晰,其電池更可支援最少十小時的使用時間,以提升前線人員的行動效率。香港科技大學的研究人

員現正分析道路速度測試所得的數據,並將提交研究報告予警隊備用。

香港交通安全隊總監廖啟明醫生率領三十六位成員於四月二十九日到訪警察總部,與交通總部人員就道路安全及交通執法作交流。交通總部總警司區永樑致歡迎辭,交通總部人員則介紹關於道路安全、電子交通執法及流動錄影執法的最新工作。是次活動加強彼此的了解和溝通,有助雙方緊密合作。

保每宗投訴個案得以公平公正處理,當中監警會觀察員擔當着重要角色。一百二十名由保安局局長委任的觀察員來自社會各界,他們的職責是觀察警方就「須匯報投訴」所進行的會面和搜證工作,並向監警會提交報告,以確保投訴機制公平而有效。在2020/2021年度,觀察員的出

席率高達98.7%(2 198次)。大部分觀察員都有正職工作,故需犧牲私人時間進行觀察。一般而言,觀察員會在不少於四十八小時前收到出勤的通知,但為配合搜證工作有時亦需深夜出勤,或連續工作十多個小時。為增加觀察員交流經驗的機會和

讓他們了解監警會及投訴警察課最新動向,監警會於四月二十七日在香港警察學院舉辦了觀察員工作坊。觀察員分享經驗和心得,並讚揚投訴警察課人員的專業態度。投訴警察課人員亦分享了警方落實監警會發表的「關於2019年6月起《逃犯條例》修訂草案引發的大型公眾活動及相關的警方行動」專題審視報告中五十二項建議的跟進工作。活動當日,監警會主席梁定邦博士頒發長期服務獎予資深觀察員張焯堯,以表揚其十年以來的貢獻。在工作坊完結前,監管處處長林曉彤感謝觀察員對兩層架構投訴警察制度的貢獻,讓每一宗投訴都得以公平公正地處理,以加強公眾對處理投訴警察制度的信心。

預防投訴視像講座投訴警察課舉辦

投訴警察課積極舉辦各項預防投訴活動,向人員提供相關資訊,以提升警隊服務質素及加強人員的專業能力。投訴警察課於四月二十三日舉辦以刑事調查隊主管為對象的預防投訴視像講座,二十五位來自新界北總區轄下四個警區的刑偵督察參與。

講座內容針對與刑事調查、證物處理和督導責任相關的投訴事項,並透過個案分享提高人員預防投訴的意識和認知,參加者亦在講座中交流工作經驗及分享預防投訴的心得。投訴警察課會繼續以不同形式推廣預防投訴的信息,以支援各單位人員的工作。

解備忘錄。雙方其後合辦「集師廣益」項目,提供有效平台讓警察學院與教大分享教學上的挑戰和經驗,以及共同關注的事項。警察學院一向重視與本地及海外教育機構合作

警務人員日常需要處理各類型的案件。不論案件的大小性質,人員一直秉持「忠誠勇毅 心繫社會」的專業精神去服務市民,而市民的支持亦是警隊悉力以赴的動力,使香港繼續成為世界上其中一個最安全及穩定的社會。

五月初的一個晚上,八鄉分區人員Joe、文葆、阿華,以及輔警Susan和Alan於巡邏車上巡邏,其間接報有人在荃錦公路上赤腳遊蕩。巡邏車於十分鐘內抵達現場並

找到該名人士,他是一名非華裔少年,人員迅速把他帶回安全位置。少年當時已十分疲憊,身上亦沒有任何身份證明文件。為其安全着想,人員只好把他帶回警署,並送上食水和乾糧以及一雙鞋,以保護其雙腳,安頓一切後才作進一步調查。輔警Susan的正職是特殊學校教師。調查期間,她發現該名少年的身型和外貌與一

名舊生非常相似。她細心地與少年溝通並翻查學校資料,亦嘗試致電其父親,結果證實她的推斷是正確的。原來,少年的父親亦正四處尋找兒子,在準備報警之際便收到警署來電。八鄉分區助理指揮官(行動及刑事)譚梅漢其後亦再三致電父親跟進和安慰他,父親從電話得知兒子安然無恙,沿途得到適切的保護和照顧,頓時感到安心。少年的父親是九龍清真寺首席教長,他十分感激警方對非華裔人士的幫助,稱讚警

務人員認真對待每宗求助,致力保護巿民。他更撰寫了一封感謝信,感謝人員對兒子的悉心照顧,並讚揚警隊的高度專業,讓巿民能生活在一個安全的城巿。他表示會繼續支持香港政府及警隊,共建和諧社會。

元朗警區指揮官何鎮宗感謝同事致力保障市民生命。負責案件的人員以能保護巿民安全及幫助不同社群為榮。Susan說:「當看見少年與家人重聚,臉上展露燦爛的笑容並擁抱其父親時,我感受到警務工作的意義。」一宗走失案件,可以從中看到每位警務人員對守護巿民安全的承擔和專業,也能感

受到巿民對警隊的信任和支持。

我是中區警區人員。在警察學院接受訓練時,教官不斷提醒我們待人處事要有同理心,我一直銘記並在處理案件時盡力協助市民。 三月底,我們接獲一宗有人暈倒案件,我和小隊指揮官立

刻趕到現場,其後救護員證實該名人士已逝世。經初步調查得知死者自小體弱,家人一直悉心照顧。如今他猝然離世,家人十分難過,我先慰問他們,然後才詢問案件詳情。檢查遺體時需脫去死者衣服,故我們建議家人先行避席,以免加深其傷痛。完成檢查後,我們亦小心翼翼為死者穿回衣服並細心整理,以表尊重。我們更安排家人登上警車一同前往公眾殮房,陪同遺體走上最後一程。 簡單的關懷和慰問雖不能減輕家屬失去至親的傷痛,但亦可算是雪中送炭。我們會繼續保持初心,以專業精神服務市民。

I am an officer of Central District. While we were receiving training in the Police College, our instructor constantly reminded us to serve the public with compassion and empathy. I have always remembered this teaching and strive to assist citizens in the best way I could in my daily work.

One day in late March, we received a person collapse case. I rushed to the s c e n e w i t h t h e P a t r o l S u b - u n i t Commander immediately, but the person w a s l a t e r c e r t i f i e d d e a d b y t h e ambulanceman. Upon initial investigation, we learnt that the deceased had suffered from weak health since childhood and thus his fami ly put great effort and patience to take care of him. His family was deeply saddened by his sudden passing, so I offered my condolences to

them before conducting further enquiry. Prior to the examination of the body

of the deceased, we suggested to the fami ly not to wi tness the course of examination, as we needed to remove the clothes of the deceased, and we did not want to deepen their sadness. After the examination, we carefully and neatly dressed the deceased to show our respect. Afterwards, we arranged for the family to go to the public mortuary by a police car so that they could stay with the deceased for the last time.

A l though words of comfor t and condolences cannot ease the family’s pain for the loss of a loved one, small gesture of care in times of grief can make a huge difference. We will continue to uphold the Force’s mission and serve the public with professionalism.

One evening in early May, five officers from Pat Heung Division (PHDIV), including Joe, Man-Po, Ah Wah,

auxiliary officers Susan and Alan, were performing patrol duty on a police vehicle when they received a report about a young man wandering barefoot on Route Twisk. The patrol car arrived at the scene within 10 minutes and located the man. He is a non-ethnic Chinese (NEC) young man. The officers swiftly brought the young man back to a safe locat ion. At the t ime, the young man had no identification document with him and appeared to be very tired. For the sake of his safety, PHDIV officers arranged for him to stay at the police station, where he was given water and food, and a pair of shoes to protect his feet. He was comforted for a while before being enquired.

Auxiliary officer Susan is a full-time teacher working in a special school. During the enquiry, she noticed that young

man looked like one of her old students. Susan patiently communicated with the young man, checked school records and contacted his father. It turned out that the father was searching for his missing son. As the father was about to report the case to the Police, he received a phone call from the pol ice stat ion. Assistant Divisional Commander (Operations and Crime) of PHDIV Tam Mui-hon called the father a few times to follow up on the situation and consoled him. Knowing that his son was in good care and safe, the father was much relieved.

The father of the young man is the Chief Imam of Hong Kong and Khateeb of the Kowloon Mosque and Islamic Centre. He was extremely grateful to the Police for their assistance to the NEC community, and he praised the officers for treating each case with great care and putting in tremendous efforts in protecting citizens. He wrote a letter

of appreciation to thank the officers for taking great care of his son and commended the Force for their professionalism in ensuring the safety of cit izens. He reiterated his continuous support to the Hong Kong Government and the Force for their efforts in maintaining a harmonious society.

Commander of Yuen Long District Ho Chun-chung thanked the officers for protecting citizens’ lives. The officers involved are proud of protecting citizens’ safety and serving different community groups. Susan said, “When I saw the young man reuniting with his family and the big smile on his face when he embraced his father, I truly experience the meaning of police work.”

This missing person case has demonstrated police officers’ professionalism and sense of mission in protecting citizens, as well as the trust and support citizens have placed on the Force.

Serving the public with dedicationPolice officers deal with different types of cases in their daily work. Regardless of the nature of the cases, officers endeavour to discharge their duties with professionalism and uphold the Force’s spirit of “Serving Hong Kong with Honour, Duty and Loyalty”. On the other hand, the support from citizens is also a driving force for the Force to pursue excellence and maintain Hong Kong as one of the safest and most stable societies in the world.

The Hong Kong Police College (HKPC) and The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on April 19

which marked a milestone for another three years of collaboration. The MoU provides a framework for cooperation to enhance partnership and exchange of teaching experience between the HKPC’s instructors and EdUHK’s students, alumni and teaching staff. The MoU was signed by Director of the HKPC Cheung Ching and Director of the Academy of Hong Kong Studies of EdUHK Professor Lui Tai-lok.

The first MoU between the HKPC and EdUHK was signed in 2018. Thereafter, the “TeachLink” project was co-organised, which provided an effective platform for exchanging teaching challenges and experience as well as discussing issues of mutual concern.

The HKPC values the opportunities for cooperation and exchange with local and overseas educational institutions. The MoU not only strengthens the collaboration between the HKPC and EdUHK, it also signifies the HKPC’s bonds with the education sector over the years, as well as the Force’s commitment to community engagement.

Music Touch’programme resumes

The Hong Kong Police Band, in partnership with Police Community Relations Office (PCRO) of Border District, visited Tun Yu School under the “Music Touch” programme on May 7.

Apart from performing an array of music for around 300 students and teachers, the band members introduced the history of the band and their daily work to the audience. They also demonstrated different musical instruments and organised interactive activities for the students.

Given the pandemic situation, the school implemented social distancing measures for the event. While some students and teachers enjoyed the performance in the outdoor area of the campus, the remaining students watched a live broadcast in their classrooms. To raise the students’ sense of national identity, the school especially invited the band to kick off the performance with the National Anthem.

The Police Band launched the “Music Touch” programme in 2016 to enhance students’ interest in learning music through school visits and interactive music performances. Since the inception of the programme, the band has partnered with PCROs from different districts to arrange visits to over 60 primary, secondary and special schools and reached out to more than 20 000 students and teachers. Following a pause of the programme due to the pandemic, the Police Band resumed the programme to continue to nurture positive values in youngsters and deepen their understanding of different types of music.

The Complaints Against Police Office (CAPO) and the Independent Police Complaints

Council (IPCC) endeavour to ensure fairness and impartiality in the handling of every complaint and the IPCC Observers’ participation in the process has been instrumental. The 120 IPCC Observers were appointed by the Secretary for Security from various sectors of the community. They are responsible for observing CAPO’s interviews and collection of evidence in handling Reportable Complaints and submitting reports to the IPCC detailing their observations.

In Year 2020/2021, the Observers attained a 98.7% attendance rate and conducted a total of 2 198 observations. As the majority of the observers have full-time jobs, they carry out observations in their personal time. They usually receive notification no less than 48 hours before the observations, but at times they have to conduct observations in the small hours or even work for more than 10 hours.

On Apr i l 27, the IPCC conducted an Observers Workshop at the Hong Kong Police College, facilitating the Observers’ experience sharing and the dissemination of the latest

information on the IPCC and CAPO. At the workshop, the Observers expressed their gratitude and appreciation towards CAPO’s professionalism while CAPO officers updated the Observers on the follow-up actions in response to the 52 recommendations made by the IPCC in its “Thematic Study Report on the Public Order Events arising from the Fugitive Offenders Bill since June 2019 and the Police Actions in Response”.

The road speed test for LTI 20/20 TruCAM II, a laser speed detection device, was conducted in the Tai Lam Section of the Castle Peak Road on March 10 and 17. The test was conducted by officers from the Law Revision and Projects Division of the Traffic Branch Headquarters (TBHQ), frontline officers of regional traffic formations, as well as academia partners from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST).

Arranged by TBHQ, Professor Emeritus of HKUST Dr Tam Wing-yim and his research team were assisted by 36 officers from five regional traffic formations, including Provida operators and TruCAM II operators, in conducting the test. To ensure the accuracy and reliability of this equipment, a total of 3 3 5 t e s t r o u n d s w e r e completed in two days. Each round involved safe d r i v i ng a t h i gh speed with a distance of three kilometres.

The officers assisted the HKUST research team in meet ing the tes t ing requirements and obtaining scientific data that could be used as a so l i d bas i s f o r t he C ou r t ’ s f u t u re assessment and reference. The collaboration between TBHQ and the academia

not only marked a milestone for laser speed detection enforcement, but also demonstrated the notable support from the academia for police work.

Moreover, with a battery life of a minimum of 10 hours, TruCAM II is expected to be welcomed by frontline traffic officers for enhancing operational efficiency.

Following the road speed test, HKUST laboratory will process the data and provide reports to the Force.

The Cyber Security and Technology Crime Bureau (CSTCB) held a counter-terrorism exercise, codenamed

“LIMITCOVER”, with the Civil Aviation Department (CAD) at the CAD Headquarters on Apri l 17. Airport Distr ict (APTDIST), the Airport Security Unit (ASU) and the Critical Infrastructure Security Coordination Centre also participated i n t h e e x e r c i s e . D e p u t y C o m m i s s i o n e r (Operations) (DCP OPS) Siu Chak-yee was present to direct the exercise and encourage the participating officers.

DCP OPS said that a ser ies of cases involving explosives and firearms had occurred in Hong Kong in recent years, showing signs of the breeding of local terrorism. The Force and stakeholders would continue to conduct multi-agency exercises with a view to enhancing c o u n t e r - t e r r o r i s m c a p a b i l i t y a s w e l l a s strengthening the response, coordination and communication capabilities.

In the exercise, an armed terrorist trespassed into the CAD Headquarters and took the staff hostage. The terrorist attempted to intrude into the CAD’s computer system to cause ser ious

casualties and economic losses. Upon detecting the intrusion attempt, CAD officers immediately isolated the concerned system and switched to a fallback system in accordance with established procedures to ensure the service was not disrupted. Officers of APTDIST and ASU arrived at the scene promptly and subdued the terrorist

before he staged an attack. Officers of the E-Security Audit and Incident Response Team of the CSTCB also conducted incident response with CAD officers at the scene, which included case investigation, digital evidence preservation and restoration of the system.

The exercise not only enhanced the readiness and response capabilities of the Force and other stakeholders in handling cyber and physical terrorist attacks, but also raised the public’s awareness of counter-terrorism.

The Hong Kong Award for Young People (HKAYP), formerly known as

the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, has 60 years of history. Over the years, the Hong Kong Police Operating Authority (HKPOA) has been fully supporting HKAYP and a s s i s t i n g i n o r g a n i s i n g r e l a t e d programmes. HKAYP has recently held two award presentation ceremonies to commend the awardees of 2019 and 2020. Five Junior Pol ice Call (JPC) members have received the highest level Gold Award, among which two are serving police officers.

The Gold Award Scheme participants must be aged 16 or above. Before they reach the age of 25, they must complete and meet the requirements of all five sections of activities, namely Service, Expeditions, Skills, Physical Recreation and Residential Project. These activities a r e e x t r e m e l y c h a l l e n g i n g a n d demanding.

Mr Wu Sui-kit is one of the Gold Award recipients this year. During his

school years, he was a shy student who did not enjoy exercise, but since he had joined JPC, he became an avid long distance runner and even a good cook. After graduating from secondary school, he applied to join the Force as a Police Constable but failed at his first attempt. Therefore, he worked hard to improve his interview skills and physical fitness and was eventually enrolled as a police officer.

Mr Wu attained the Bronze Award when he was a Secondary Four student. After joining the Force, Mr Wu wanted to challenge himself, so in 2016 he applied for the Gold Award Scheme. He said, “For me, the Expeditions activities were the most unforgettable experience. We had to walk for at least 60 kilometres within four days. And when we were camping in Ngong Ping for the second night, there was pouring rain and the temperature had dropped to two degrees Cels ius. This exper ience made me realise the importance of team spirit and strengthened my resilience in the face of

adversity.”Ms Chu Yuen-tim, whose father is a

retired police officer, is another Gold Award recipient. Under her father ’s influence, she had joined JPC and a uniformed group since she was in school. When she was in her f i r s t year a t university, she pursued the Gold Award Scheme, but the process was fraught with many obstacles. She recalled, “Two of my teammates had quit in the middle of the Expeditions activities, so I had to join a new group to undergo the assessment again. Afterwards, I had completed the activities of both the Residential Project and Skills Sections, but because I hurt my back I was unab le to undergo the assessment of Physical Recreat ion Section.”

Ms Chu was determined to become a police officer, so upon graduation from university, she applied for the post of Probationary Inspector and successfully joined the Force. She completed the training at the Police College with her

resil ient attitude developed from the HKAYP Scheme. During her training, she reignited her dream for achieving the Gold Award, so she completed the remaining two required sections before she turned 25.

Ms Chu said, “Through joining JPC and uniformed groups, young people deve lop law-ab id ing mindsets and aspiration to serve the community, and that is why many participants would eventually join various disciplined forces. HKAYP helps part ic ipants establ ish p o s i t i v e v a l u e s , a n d t h r o u g h companionship and encouragement of their peers, they would become future young leaders in society.”

Force members and civilian staff aged 24 or below are welcome to join HKAYP. For enquiries, please contact HKPOA (Tel: 2828-7470).
