14th JPC awards presented
 JPC jamboree: CP Eddie Hui with Hongkong Bank head Edwin Lau at the PSRC |
Hongkong Bank Foundation Junior Police Call Award Scheme presentations were held at the Police Sports and Recreation Club on January 29.
Commissioner of Police Eddie Hui Ki-on, Deputy Commissioner (Operations) Peter Wong Tsan-kwong and Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Assistant General Manager and Head of Personal Banking Edwin Lau Chi-kit, officiated at the event.
It was the 14th consecutive year the Foundation had sponsored the annual scheme launched in 1977 to recognise dedicated JPC members through four categories: the JPC Member Award, JPC Leader Award, JPC School Club Award and JPC District Council Award.
Wong Tai Sin and Yau Tsim members Pang Ka-lung and Law Chi-yee won the JPC Member and Leader Awards respectively. They were each presented with a trophy and a $8,000 cash award.
Yau Tsim's St Mary's Canossian College was selected champion of the JPC School Club Award and received a $13,000 cash prize.
Yau Tsim also won the JPC District Council Award and was honoured with a $21,000 cash prize.
Some 12,000 diversified activities were held by the JPC last year, up more than 10 per cent on 1998. The activities included a fight crime summer camp, a drug-wise camp, the mini-Olympics, flag selling and a star gazing camp which together attracted more than 400,000 participants.
