To celebrate the 180th Anniversary of Marine Region of the Hong Kong Police, “180 years: Safeguarding
HK Waters - Community Engagement and Charity Day” will be held at Marine Regional Headquarters
(MHQ) on Saturday the 19th of November. To get things started on the morning of the event the Marine
Police Dragon Boat Team will hold the “Dragon Boat Cross Harbour Charity Parade” which will see the
team and members of uniformed groups paddle Dragon Boats 8km from Kowloon Public Pier, the pier
formerly used when Marine Headquarters was in Tsim Sha Tsui to its current headquarters in Sai Wan Ho.
On arriving at MHQ the weary paddlers will be met by members of various community groups who will be
participating in various 180A commemorative activities all of which will serve to recognize Marine Region's
partnership with the community and how it plays a key role in safeguarding Hong Kong waters.
