Hong Kong authorities have rolled out a newly designed promotional vehicle, the "NSpeed 3.0," to tour the city, aiming to make national security education more engaging for the public, especially young people, ahead of the 11th National Security Education Day.

In anticipation of the 11th "National Security Education Day" on April 15, which also marks the sixth anniversary of the Hong Kong National Security Law's enactment, the city's Security Bureau and its disciplined services have initiated a series of promotional activities to foster a deeper sense of civic responsibility.

The campaign began with the launch of the "NSpeed 3.0," a redesigned publicity vehicle from the police force's National Security Department. Kicking off its third city-wide tour at a ceremony at Tong Mei Road Government Primary School, the vehicle was unveiled by the Secretary for Security Chris Tang Ping-keung and the Commissioner of Police Joe Chow Yat-ming. The event drew over 400 students, teachers, and parents.

The new vehicle features interactive challenge games and a "Newspaper Instant Photo" experience, where participants can print photos designed to look like newspaper headlines. A representative from the National Security Department expressed hope that the vehicle's innovative and more accessible approach would help integrate national security concepts into daily life and school environments. 

The vehicle will travel through various districts in Hong Kong until May 11 to enhance public understanding and support for the "comprehensive national security concept."

Tang remarked that upholding national security is a collective duty. 

He affirmed the government's continuous efforts in this area, highlighting National Security Education Day as a key moment to unite the community. 

He stressed that the Security Bureau's work is crucial and far-reaching, from aligning with the nation's strategic plans to addressing security challenges and building social consensus.

Echoing this sentiment, Chow stated that every citizen is a beneficiary and stakeholder in national security. 

He emphasized that a strong national identity is the foundation of security, as pride in being Chinese fosters a profound sense of personal duty and mission to protect the country.

The police will also host a national security education event with the theme "Sailing for a Protected Hong Kong" at Harcourt Garden on April 12, which will also feature the "NSpeed" vehicle. 

The public is encouraged to participate in the various events to collectively safeguard Hong Kong's prosperity and stability.
