Adjustment in ceiling prices for dedicated LPG filling stations in January 2025

The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department (EMSD) today (December 24) announced an adjustment to the auto-LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) ceiling prices for dedicated LPG filling stations from January 1 to January 31, 2025, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contracts for dedicated LPG filling stations.

A department spokesman said that the adjustment on January 1, 2025, would reflect the movement of the LPG international price in December 2024. The adjusted auto-LPG ceiling prices for dedicated LPG filling stations will range from $3.75 to $4.64 per litre, amounting to an increase of $0 to $0.01 per litre.

The spokesman said that the auto-LPG ceiling prices were adjusted according to a pricing formula specified in the contracts. The formula comprises two elements - the LPG international price and the LPG operating price. The LPG international price refers to the LPG international price of the preceding month. The LPG operating price is adjusted on February 1 and June 1 annually according to the average movement of the Composite Consumer Price Index and the Nominal Wage Index.

The auto-LPG ceiling prices for respective dedicated LPG filling stations in January 2025 are as follows:

Second National Security Education Study Tour returns to Hong Kong after visiting Beijing and Shanghai

​The second National Security Education Study Tour organised by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government concluded and returned to Hong Kong this afternoon (December 24). A total of 131 principals, teachers, and students from 19 primary and secondary schools in Hong Kong departed for Beijing on December 18. The primary school group completed their tour and returned to Hong Kong on December 22, while the secondary school group proceeded to Shanghai on the same day and returned today. Members of the study tour were primarily from the winning teams with outstanding performance and achievements, as well as their coaching principals and teachers of schools that excelled in the Territory-wide Inter-school National Security Knowledge Challenge, jointly organised by the Department of Justice, the Security Bureau, the Education Bureau, and the Hong Kong Shine Tak Foundation. Among the participants were non-Chinese speaking students joining both the challenge and study tour for the first time. The Secretary for Security, Mr Tang Ping-keung, the Secretary General of the Committee for Safeguarding National Security of the HKSAR, Mr Au Chi-kwong; and the Chairman of the Hong Kong Shine Tak Foundation, Mrs Tung Ng Ling-ling, accompanied the study tour to Beijing, while the Under Secretary for Education, Dr Sze Chun-fai, joined the study tour on December 21 in Beijing and travelled with them to Shanghai. On December 22, members of the study tour were warmly received by Deputy Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Work Office of the Central People's Government, Mr Nong Rong.

In the past few days, the study tour visited the Museum of the Communist Party of China and participated in interactive exchanges with teachers and students from the Branch of the High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China and Zhongguancun No. 3 Primary School. They also watched the solemn flag-raising ceremony on the viewing stage of Tiananmen Square. Other sites visited included the National Museum of China, the National Archives of Publications and Culture, the China Academy of Space Technology, the China Science and Technology Museum, the China National Arts and Crafts Museum, the Shanghai National Security Education Center, and the Sihang Warehouse Memorial of War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

During the tour, students demonstrated great enthusiasm and curiosity about the country's system, history, culture, economy, science and technology, and social development. They eagerly embraced this opportunity to move beyond textbooks for on-site visits, particularly being deeply moved when watching the national flag rise on the viewing stage at Tiananmen Square. The visit to the China Academy of Space Technology enhanced their understanding and aspirations regarding the country's aerospace technology development. During their interactions at key primary and secondary schools in Beijing, they were also impressed by the diverse learning environment and the enthusiasm of local students.

Yang, a student from Ng Clan's Association Tai Pak Memorial School, remarked that the Museum of the Communist Party of China left the deepest impression on him, especially the history of the Long March. He felt both pained and moved by the pioneers' contributions and efforts in building New China. Lam, a student from Munsang College (Hong Kong Island), said that as Chinese people, everyone should unite, contribute together, and actively participate in the country's future development. She believes that their generation, blessed by the protection and guidance of their predecessors, also bears the responsibility of safeguarding national security. Kabra, a non-Chinese speaking student from Queen's College, said the tour broadened his understanding of China's history, culture, and national security. He emphasised that he returned to Hong Kong not only with knowledge but also a commitment to applying these insights to help build a more secure world.

The Secretary for Security, Mr Tang Ping-keung, encouraged students at the opening ceremony to understand the history and culture of the country through their footsteps, comprehend China's modernisation through their eyes, listen to the thoughts and voices of the Chinese people with their ears, and to grasp the essence of China's spirit with their hearts. He urged them to deeply appreciate the historical depth, cultural richness, and warmth of lives in the Motherland, develop positive viewpoints on state, history and nation, thus proactively safeguarding national security and better contributing to Hong Kong and the Motherland. Secretary General, Mr Au Chi-kwong, expressed his encouragement towards the students' enthusiasm for exploring national security knowledge, urging them to learn more about the country's history, culture, and achievements in various fields through on-site visits and to deepen their understanding of the principle of "one country, two systems", becoming proactive contributors to Hong Kong's future development. At the closing ceremony, the Under Secretary for Education, Dr Sze Chun-fai, encouraged students to share their experiences and insights from the study tour with their teachers and classmates. He emphasised the importance of combining reading extensively with traveling widely to deepen their understanding of the country's history, culture, and current realities. He encouraged them to maintain their enthusiasm for learning and to aspire to become pillars of society in the future.
