RTHK - More kids joining uniformed groups: govt

Security Secretary Chris Tang on Tuesday said his bureau will do more to attract children to join youth uniformed groups.

DAB lawmaker Elizabeth Quat asked Tang whether the government could set a goal to allow all junior secondary students to join at least one uniformed group.

Tang said membership would be left up to children to decide.

“Students’ interests are diversified. Some students may not prefer uniformed groups. They may prefer art and culture groups instead. So all in all we want to make sure those interested to join are able to do so,” he said.
