The Chairman of the 2016 Fight Crime Conference, Mr Kwok Wing-keung, appealed to the community to support the Force in combatting crime and to remain vigilant against deception with a view to keeping Hong Kong as one of the safest cities in the world.


He made the above remarks at the conference organised by the Fight Crime Committee (FCC) on December 10, with "Join Hands with Police, Fight Crime and Prevent Scam" as the theme. The conference provides a platform for members of FCC and the 18 District Fight Crime Committees (DFCCs) to enhance exchanges on law and order and fight crime strategies in Hong Kong.


The Chief Executive, Mr C Y Leung, delivered an opening address at the conference, while the Chief Secretary for Administration cum Chairperson of FCC, Mrs Carrie Lam, gave a keynote speech.


Five pre-conference group meetings were held for DFCC members to discuss technology crime and commercial crime, quick cash crime, youth drug problem and youth crime, burglary and home security as well as domestic violence. The five groups presented the outcome of their discussions at the conference.


About 400 DFCC members attended the plenary session of the conference and shared their views with the official members of FCC and heads of the relevant policy bureaux and departments.
