Training
Police have exchanges with Singapore, UK
Three senior Hong Kong Police officers were attached to the
Singapore Police Force and London's Metropolitan Police Services
under a Staff Exchange Training Attachment, laying a milestone for
the partnership of the three forces in staff development.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Chan Wai-ki said officers on
exchange may bring about cross-fertilisation of ideas and
experiences and help foster a better working relationship over a
cross-section of policing areas of mutual concern.
"For individual officers, the programme will definitely enrich and
broaden their international exposure, whereas our force will
strengthen the connection with the two partners," Mr Chan
added.
Being attached to the two forces between February and April,
Superintendent Dominique Ziemann, Woman Superintendent Jocelyn
Cheung and Chief Inspector Paul Cheng said the attachment enabled
them to explore the two forces' approach to community policing,
their rationale, process and implementation.
To further enhance management development for officers, the
PoliceTraining Wing has made similar attachment arrangements with
the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Bureau Department and
Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau.
