The Security Bureau today held a pledging ceremony to mobilise relevant departments, organisations and work partners in full support of the 2025 Legislative Council General Election, with some 400 people taking part in the ceremony. Secretary for Security Tang Ping-keung said at the event that since the implementation of the principle of "patriots administering Hong Kong" in the Legislative Council, legislators have given valuable advice for the smooth passage of important legislation, including the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance and laws benefitting the people and businesses, as well as facilitating the work of law enforcement departments. He called on the participants of today’s event to cast their votes on December 7 and encourage relatives and friends to vote to create a better future for Hong Kong. In addition to members led by the heads of the Security Bureau, the six disciplined services and the two auxiliary services, representatives from advisory and statutory bodies under the bureau and departments, including the Independent Police Complaints Council, the Disciplined Services Consultative Council and the Police Force Council, as well as staff associations, youth groups and work partners were also invited. The security chief and the heads of the disciplined and auxiliary services performed the pledge by piecing together puzzles, each showing a department badge, onto a lighting installation with the election slogan "Join the Election Together We Create the Future", symbolising the concerted efforts of the bureau, the disciplined and the auxiliary services to fully support the LegCo Election. Mr Tang and the department heads then led their teams to distribute leaflets in various districts to call on citizens to cast their votes on polling day.

Intensity of UV radiation : low Tropical Cyclone Fung-wong has entered within 800 kilometres of Hong Kong. The Observatory will issue the Standby Signal, No. 1 at 12:20 p.m. today. According to the present forecast track, Fung-wong will turn northwards over the northeastern part of the South China Sea. It will be closest to Hong Kong tomorrow night (11 November) to Wednesday (12 November) at first, skirting at about 400 kilometres or more to the east of Hong Kong. Depending on the change in intensity of Fung-wong, its distance from Hong Kong and local wind conditions, the Observatory will assess the need for issuing the Strong Wind Signal, No.3. Fung-wong will then move towards the vicinity of Taiwan, moving away from Hong Kong progressively and weaken gradually under the influence of the northeast monsoon.
Under the combined effect of Fung-wong and the northeast monsoon, it will be windy and slightly cooler with swells over the coast of Guangdong in the next couple of days. Temperatures in the urban areas will fall to around 20 degrees midweek this week. Minor flooding may occur over some low-lying coastal areas tonight and early tomorrow morning.
