PUBLIC SUPPORT URGED FOR ROAD SAFETY DRIVE
******
SUPPORT FOR THE GOVERNMENT ROAD SAFETY CAMPAIGN IS NOT MERELY AN ACT OF CONCERN FOR OTHER PEOPLE BUT FOR OURSELVES.
''FOR WHILE THE PEOPLE KILLED OR INJURED IN TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS EVERY DAY MAY NOT BE KNOWN TO US AT ALL, THERE IS NO TELLING THAT THE NEXT ON THE TOLL WILL NOT BE OURSELVES OR SOMEONE WHO IS VERY DEAR TO US," THE ACTING ASSISTANT CHIEF POLICE COMMUNITY RELATIONS OFFICER, MR LAU KAI-FAT, SAID TODAY (MONDAY),
MR LAU SAID THAT THE GOVERNMENT HAS OVER THE YEARS WIDELY PUBLICISED THE IMPORTANCE OF ROAD SAFETY AND HAS WON MUCH SUPPORT FROM THE MEDIA.
AN EXAMPLE IS TVB'S THREE EPISODES IN THE "GOOD MORNING HONG KONG' STARTING TOMORROW ON THIS VERY IMPORTANT THEME.
