This Commemorative book is a compelling record of the momentous history of the Hong Kong Police Force. Such a project takes months of work. That effort includes planning, coordination, photography, researching, drafting and proofreading. The Editorial Board expresses its heartfelt gratitude to the many talented people from different sectors, including the Force, who assisted. This book would not be possible without their valuable contributions.
The Editorial Board would like to thank History Advisors Mr FUNG Siu-yuen, Mr CHAN Wai-kei and Mr HO Ming-sun; Text and Production Advisors Mr YU Chi-wai, Terence, Mr WORDSWORTH Steven Barry, Ms TSANG Yim-sheung, Anna, Mr ANSTISS Mark Ronald, Mr TAIT Steven Douglas and Mr WOO Mathias; the Information Services Department, Public Records Office, Government Records Service, Antiquities and Monuments Office, Radio Television Hong Kong, Sing Tao News Corporation Limited and South China Morning Post for providing precious photos. There is insufficient space to say thank you to everyone who played a part. Readers can scan the QR code on page 208 for a full acknowledgement list.
We wish to extend a special thank you to the Chairperson of the Hong Kong Police Force 175th Anniversary Steering Committee, Senior Assistant Commissioner Ms LAU Chi-wai, Edwina.
