Kwun Tong District (KTDIST) kicked off a special programme on June 3 for the elders living in Kwun Tong to explore the interesting spots within the district so that they would make new friends and acquire new knowledge.

 

In the first event of the programme, a party of 110 elders visited the Jockey Club Lei Yu Mun Plus, which is a platform for arts and culture converted from a primary school built in the 1920's. After the visit, the elders joined 350 Senior Police Call members in an investment scam seminar.

 

The seminar was a joint venture by KTDIST, Police Public Relations Branch, Commercial Crime Bureau and the Investor Education Centre, with the support of Sau Mau Ping District and Wong Tai Sin District. It reminded the elders to beware of investment pitfalls and act as a smart investor, covering financial management and "pyramid selling" and offering tips on averting investment pitfalls.
