SHORTLY before the Lunar New Year holiday, leaflets and PVC magnets carrying crime prevention messages were distributed to outlying islands residents and the marine community reminding them of the importance of security at home and on board vessels. Led by the District Commander of the Marine Port District, Au Hok-lam, members of the Islands, Southern and Eastern District Fight Crime Committees and Junior Police Call members distributed the leaflets and magnets to residents on Cheung Chau, Lamma and Peng Chau and, via five police launches, to people on fishing boats in Aberdeen, Cheung Chau and Shau Kei Wan typhoon shelters. The leaflets carry basic precautionary anti-crime measures for security at home and on board vessels. The magnets, designed to suit a maritime environment, are printed with useful advice for vessel owners and people working on boats to safeguard their property against theft and burglary. The crime prevention campaign saw over 7,000 leaflets and more than 1,000 magnets distributed. The Marine Port District also distributed the leaflets and magnets to schools, rural committees, youth centres, fishermen's associations and merchant shipping associations. |
