Flag raising parade to become monthly

*
Hong Kong Police

The flag raising parade at Golden Bauhinia Square will be held on the first day of every month, like the Mainland's ceremony at Beijing's Tiananmen Square.

 

The new arrangement replaces the former thrice-monthly ceremonies from this month.

 

The parade features the Police Band marching and performing the national anthem.

 

The public should take note of the new arrangement, which will also be promoted to tourists.
