Security Bureau youth group's study tour to Shaanxi and Beijing continues visit to Beijing (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
     Led by the Secretary for Security, Mr Tang Ping-keung, members of the Security Bureau (SB) Youth Uniformed Group Leaders Forum continued their second-day visit to Beijing today (August 20) to learn about the country's history, culture and development in various fields.
 
     In the early morning, the study tour members watched the flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square to feel the affection for home and country. As it was the first time for many of the youth members to watch the flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square in person, they said they were particularly excited and deeply moved by its solemnity. They were also proud of the country's remarkable achievements after a long period of struggles.
 
     The study tour members then visited the Palace Museum to appreciate precious artefacts and the unique architecture. In the afternoon, the group toured the Yuanmingyuan Park to view relics including the Dashuifa at Haiyantang as well as its East-meets-West gardening landscape and learnt about the painful history of the invasion of foreign powers and the destruction of the Summer Palace by fire, noting that a country has to give full play to the spirit of self-enhancement and struggle to be strong.
 
     The group also visited Tsinghua University to tour its campus and History Museum in the afternoon and was briefed on the paths to further studies. Mr Tang met with the Secretary of the CPC Tsinghua University Committee, Professor Qiu Yong, and visited the School of Public Policy and Management. Mr Tang expressed his gratitude to the university for its support to the youth work and disciplined services of the SB, which helps nurture distinguished public administration talent for the disciplinary forces. Mr Tang returned to Hong Kong this evening.
 
     The study tour members yesterday (August 19) visited the headquarters of Weibo Corporation to learn about the development of the social media and public opinion platform that has nearly six hundred million of users, as well as its situation in Hong Kong. The group also visited Sino Biopharmaceutical Limited of the CP Group to understand more about their pharmaceutical research and innovation development.
 
     The study tour members tomorrow (August 21) will conclude their eight-day visit to Xi'an, Yan'an and Beijing after going to the Beijing Police Dog Base to learn about police dog breeding and training work on the Mainland.
