National Security Education Resources
15 April is the National Security Education Day, which aims at raising public awareness of national security, creating a positive atmosphere of safeguarding national security, enhancing the capacity to fend off national security risks, deepening public understanding of the Constitution, the Basic Law and national security, and fostering a sense of national identity.
National security is the cornerstone of national stability. Covering a number of major fields, it ensures the people’s security in an all-round manner. With extensive reading, we will be able to gain an in-depth understanding of the holistic view of national security; learn the importance of national security to the country, to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and to every Hong Kong citizen; and perform our civic duty and work together to safeguard national security.
