Summary

Security Secretary Chris Tang Ping-keung (鄧炳強) is due to depart Hong Kong on Saturday for Yan’an, Shaanxi, to attend the opening ceremony of a national studies training course organised by the Yan’an Cadre Academy for Security Bureau personnel, along with related inspection activities. He is then scheduled to continue to Shanghai on Monday, lead the heads of six disciplined services on a visit there, attend the Global Public Security Cooperation Forum in Jiangsu on Wednesday, and return to Hong Kong next Thursday.

Key Points

  • Tang will travel to Yan’an in Shaanxi on Saturday to attend the opening ceremony of a national studies training course for Security Bureau staff.
  • The course is being run by the Yan’an Cadre Academy, and Tang will also join related inspection activities during the Shaanxi leg.
  • On Monday, he will go on to Shanghai and lead the chiefs of six disciplined services on an official visit there.
  • Tang is scheduled to attend the 2026 Global Public Security Cooperation Forum in Lianyungang, Jiangsu, on Wednesday.
  • The delegation includes Police Commissioner Joe Chow Yat-ming, immigration chief Benson Kwok Joon-fung, customs chief Chan Tsz-tat, correctional services chief Wong Kwok-hing, fire services chief Andy Yeung Yan-kin, and Government Flying Service controller Victor Liu Ka-chun.

Why It Matters

The trip sets out the Security Bureau leadership’s official programme for the coming week and confirms that Deputy Secretary for Security Michael Cheuk Hau-yip (卓孝業) will act as secretary during Tang’s absence. It also brings together the bureau and six disciplined services chiefs in a single mainland itinerary covering training, official visits and a public safety forum.
