Fun Day to promote equal opportunities
About a thousand people took part in the "Equal Opportunities and Anti- Discrimination Fun Day" organised by the Wong Tai Sin District Board's Community Building and Social Services Committee at Lok Fu Shopping Centre this (Sunday) afternoon.
Chairman of the Committee, Mr Choi Luk-sing, said the activity aimed to give support to the 1995 International Year of Women and the Committee on the Promotion of Civic Education's campaign to promote equal opportunities and anti- discrimination.
He wished that through the specially designed games, drama, exhibition and quizzes, people would realise the importance of equal opportunities between the sexes as well as to treat women, the disabled and people of all races equally.
It was also hoped that the new generation would learn carly in life how to get along with other people with the right attitude, he added.
The Fun Day was organised with the Wong Tai Sin District Office's assistance and the District Board's sponsorship.

Subscription service gives traders faster access to data
The Trade Department today (Sunday) invited traders to make good use of its regular subscription service to keep themselves abreast with the latest trade policies and other commercial information of Hong Kong's overseas markets.
"The subscription service gives faster access to the Commercial Information Circulars issued by the department every now and then," said a spokesman for the department.
He said these circulars provided information on trade policies concerning textiles and non-textiles matters, as well as regulations and tariffs relating to Hong Kong's overseas markets.
"They are issued in both English and Chinese whenever necessary. Last year, the department published a total of 154 issues which covered a wide range of products and countries," he said.
