***************************************************************************
It is the third time ImmD appointing Youth Ambassadors in the Mainland, after Beijing and Guangzhou. The appointed Youth Ambassadors will receive diversified training provided by the ImmD during the one-year term, aiming at deepening their understanding of the operations of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government and the business scope of the ImmD. They will also collaborate with the Immigration Divisions of the Mainland Offices of the HKSAR Government, in disseminating and conveying the latest information and updates about the ImmD. The ImmD expects that Programme will broaden the Youth Ambassadors' horizons and lay a solid foundation for their future work in various positions within society.
During the appointment ceremony, Mr Kwok encouraged the Youth Ambassadors to take this opportunity to enhance their understanding of the ImmD's policies and works, promote and introduce the works of the ImmD to the public, tell Hong Kong's good stories, and serve as a bridge between the youths of the Mainland and Hong Kong. Furthermore, Mr Kwok emphasised that young generation are the future of the country. He expected the Youth Ambassadors to utilise their strengths, keep learning and progressing, and make contribution to the stability and prosperity of the country and Hong Kong.
The ImmD launched the ImmD Youth Ambassador Programme in 2023, and appointed eight young people living in Beijing to be the first batch of Youth Ambassadors in November of the same year. Subsequently, in March 2024, the ImmD appointed eight young people living or working in Guangdong as the second batch of Youth Ambassadors in Guangzhou.
