Working Group on Patriotic Education launches theme song "Our Home"

The Working Group on Patriotic Education (WGPE) under the Constitution and Basic Law Promotion Steering Committee today (September 3) launched a theme song titled "Our Home" to actively promote patriotic education through different means and channels.

"Our Home" is performed by member of the Media Publicity Sub-group under the WGPE Ms Cally Kwong, and produced by musician Alan Cheung. The key message encourages people to love their country as much as they love their families, as one can only have a family when they have a country.

The Convenor of the Working Group, Ms Starry Lee, said, "We hope that by becoming familiar with this theme song and singing together, members of the public, especially the youth, will subtly develop national awareness and enhance their feelings of 'Love our Country, Love Hong Kong, Love our Community'. We thank the Media Publicity Sub-group member Ms Cally Kwong for her involvement and support."

Ms Lee said that the WGPE will later distribute USB devices containing the karaoke version of "Our Home" to primary and secondary schools, so that patriotic education can be better integrated across campuses and into students' daily studies and lives in an interesting and diversified manner.

The karaoke version of "Our Home" features landmarks and scenery from Hong Kong, allowing viewers to enjoy the melody and catchy lyrics while appreciating the beauty of Hong Kong, thereby deepening their connection to the country.
