THE ARMED SERVICES AND AUXILIARY SERVICES
217
Apart from weekly evening training, each zone holds regular exercises in which incidents such as landslides and house collapses are staged, casualties rescued and first-aid given. Uniformed members help government departments, kaifong and local welfare associations when required. Apart from the work entailed by the June rainstorm, the Kowloon rescue service was called out to assist in the rescue of victims following the serious wall collapse at La Salle Road. The new Civil Aid Services Headquarters at Caroline Hill, on Hong Kong Island, was opened by the Governor on 21st June.
