HKY023 Royal Hong Kong Policeman On The Street’

Because of its relatively small size and compactness Hong Kong has no major requirement for large fleets of squad cars manned by one or two officers.
Instead substantial numbers of officers can be seen patrolling the city’s many streets on foot, usually in groups of two or occasionally three. This ensures a regular police presence on most of the city’s streets, day and night.
Should additional resources and manpower be required mobile vehicle patrols can be called upon. The vast majority of Hong Kong’s residents appreciate the regular presence of the ordinary policeman ‘on the beat’ in their neighbourhoods keeping them and their streets safe.
