Since the Correctional Services Department broke away from the police structure in 1920, it has independently assumed the responsibility of managing prisons and prisoners. Today (31st) New Year's Eve has been established for its 100th anniversary.
To commemorate the centenary, the correctional officers arranged a series of songs, including two commemorative songs with the theme of the centenary, a song describing the work of the frontline staff, a volunteer group song, and departmental songs. The first song was compiled into an album titled "Song Yue Hao Pun", produced into three versions of vinyl record, laser record and online download version.
The five songs "Same Mission", "Just Because of You", "Punishment Is My Hand" and "The Last Line of Defense" not only let the public understand the work of the correctional department, but also allow correctional officers to appreciate it.
The cover of the album is designed to be dotted with stars in the dark night sky, which means that correctional officers have led inmates on the path of rehabilitation for a century.
The Commissioner of Correctional Services Hu Yingming also personally signed each album with the name of the correctional officer, and will give it to each correctional officer.
Hu said: "We have given this heart to more than 7,000 colleagues in the Correctional Services Department and thanked them for keeping their posts for many years and giving them silently."
