Anti-drug music contest to be held
*

Young people aged 25 or below are welcome to join a series of contests in hip-hop, rapping and band playing to spread anti-drug messages and promote a healthy lifestyle.

 

The six-month No Drugs Hip Hop Dance & Music Competition is organised by the Action Committee Against Narcotics, the Security Bureau Narcotics Division and RTHK Teen Power.

 

The contest gives youngsters a chance to show their talent and build self-confidence. It also enhances the message that young people can enjoy themselves and find satisfaction in a drug-free environment.

 

All dance and music performances should relate to the anti-drug theme. Contestants will join the semi-finals in August and November, and finalists will compete in the finale at Queen Elizabeth Stadium in December.
