In response to and in support of National Security Education Day, the Fire Services Department (FSD) will organize an open day at the Fire and Ambulance Services Academy in Tseung Kwan O on April 15 (Saturday), with an opportunity to deepen the public's understanding about the Constitution, the Basic Law and the Hong Kong National Security Law, as well as the FSD's work on national security, public safety, public order and personnel training.
The open day will include a number of events, including a presentation on the department's efforts to safeguard national security, a parade of fire apparatus, firefighting and rescue demonstrations, displays of training facilities, equipment, and special vehicles, an exhibition on fire safety education, game booths, a recruitment experience area, as well as a demonstration of Fire Services working dogs.
The Fire and Ambulance Services Education Centre cum Museum will also be open to the public on the day.
The open day will be held from 8.45 am to 4 pm. A ticket is required for admission (children aged 3 or below do not need an admission ticket).
Members of the public who are interested can apply for a maximum of four admission tickets from today (April 3) to April 5 through the latest version of the Hong Kong Fire Services Department Mobile Application, which can be downloaded from the Apple App Store, Google Play and Huawei AppGallery for free. The tickets will be allocated by computer ballot and successful applicants will receive a notification through the Application on or before April 10.
