The EMSD’s first mobile promotion truck, The Bearbot Lifestyle Experience, made its official debut on 15 July. I, Witty Bear, and Knowbot have assumed the role of tour guides and introduced information on E&M safety, energy efficiency and innovative technologies to the public through the display boards about E&M trivia and innovation and technology-driven interactive games on the truck.
Our mobile truck visited six primary schools under the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui (HKSKH) earlier on to pilot the promotion of E&M safety, energy efficiency, etc. in schools. On 19 July, the truck made its first visit to SKH St James’ Primary School. Mr. Pang Yiu-hung, Director of Electrical and Mechanical Services and Mr. Kwok Chi-kay, Peter, Director of Education Services of the HKSKH also attended the event that day to explore the world of E&M wonderland with the students. Since mid-July, the truck has also been travelling to various districts across the territory at weekends, reaching out to over 7 500 members of the public and sharing E&M knowledge with them.
As the goodwill ambassadors of the EMSD, we hope to promote E&M safety and energy efficiency in an interesting and light-hearted way, and encourage people to develop good habits of saving energy and reducing carbon footprints, so that we can all contribute to the goal of achieving carbon neutrality!
