The following is issued on behalf of the Road Safety Council:
 
     The Road Safety Council 46th Anniversary Ceremony cum City Carnival was successfully held today (January 11) at the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal.
 
     The opening ceremony was officiated by the Chairperson of the Road Safety Council and Deputy Commissioner of Police (Operations), Mr Siu Chak-yee; the Chairlady of the Road Safety Campaign Committee, Miss Ma Ka-wai; and the Assistant Commissioner for Transport (Technical Services), Mr Tony Yau.
 
     Mr Siu expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the members of the Council and the working partners for their contributions and support. He appealed to the public to continue to make joint efforts to realise the vision of "Zero Accidents on the Road, Hong Kong's Goal".
 
     A mini Road Safety Town was set up on-site. Through driving simulation, interactive games and STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and art workshops, the carnival aimed at nurturing awareness among children and other members of the public to act as responsible road users. To make the carnival more entertaining and inspiring, a Kid Model Show and a Road Safety Dream Car Competition were newly added this year.
