在本期《容來熙往》節目中，我們邀請到警務處處長蕭澤頤向我們介紹香港警察的一些警務工作以及其對如何改善警民關係的看法。

主持︰I'm sure that everyone agrees that young men shall deserve a bright future. In the future, if these young men would like to turn over a new leaf, how do the police or the society can do to help them?

我相信大家都同意，年輕人應該有一個光明的未來，將來如果這些年輕人想改過自新的話，警方或社會能做些什麼來幫助他們呢？

嘉賓︰I do very much agree that we should give a second chance to those who committed the crime during the black turmoil, and he shows remorse. This is something that the whole community needs to do.

對於那些在黑暴期間犯罪後又表現出後悔的人，我非常同意應該給這些人第二次機會，這是整個社會都需要做的事情。

When you talk about the rehabilitation of the youth offenders or the reintegration of the youth offenders, I can tell you that there is in fact a joint program conducted by volunteers of the Correctional Services Department and the police. This program in fact is named Walk with Youth Program. Our targets on this program are those people who are now being detained in the correctional services institution, the CSD institutions, detention center, under the age of 30. The ultimate aim for this program is to give them a second chance, talk to them, hoping that we would be able to rebuild a positive life for them.

談到青少年罪犯的更生問題或重返社會的問題時，我們有一個由懲教署和警署志願者開展的聯合計劃，叫作「並肩同行」計劃。我們這個計劃的目標群體是那些被依法拘留在懲教機構，或者是在懲教署下的一些機構、拘留中心的30歲以下青年罪犯。項目的最終目標是給他們第二次機會，通過與他們交談，讓他們重建一個積極的生活。

The content of the Walk with Youth Program is that we organize activities for them, such as before the Mother's Day, we arranged those youngsters now being detained in the detention center to meet their mother, so that the kids can interact with the mother, tell the mother how they think, say sorry to mother etc. We have also arranged the school principals to go inside to the detention center to meet their students. Through these activities, we wish to instill positive values to those now being detained in the detention center.

「並肩同行」計劃的內容是我們為他們組織一些活動，比如在母親節前，我們安排那些青少年的媽媽們與他們見面，讓孩子得以和他們的媽媽互動，說出他們的想法，向媽媽說對不起等。我們也安排了學校的校長去到拘留中心裏面見他們的學生。通過這些活動，我們希望向那些在拘留中心內的年輕人灌輸正向的價值觀。

At the same time, I have personally met a lot of detainees youth offenders inside the detention center. In fact, just a few days ago, I met an 18-year-old boy. He was just discharged from a detention center not too long ago. He was a university student before he was being arrested by us, now he has shown remorse. He told me that he was being exploited during the black turmoil. There was also peer pressure, his friends go out, then he had to follow. He said the atmosphere would motivate you to do something violent.

同時，我個人也見過很多拘留所裏的青年罪犯。就在幾天前就見到一個18歲的男孩，他剛剛從拘留所被釋放。他在被我們逮捕前還是一個大學生，而他現在表示懺悔。他說他在黑暴期間或多或少受到利用，還有同輩壓力，朋友都上街了，他也不得不跟着做。他說當時的氛圍促使他去做一些暴力的事情。

But now, when he was being detained in the CSD institutions, he has got no access to the social media etc. Then he calmed down and thinks back, he thought he was being exploited. He thinks that who is the best to him, not those anti-government activists, not those they call the brotherhood, but his parents. Now he has come out, he wishes to continue to pursue study.

當他被拘留在懲教署的機構時，接觸不到社交媒體等等，慢慢平靜下來了。回想過去，他認為自己是被利用。他想想誰是對他最好的人，不是那些反政府的活動分子，不是那些所謂的「手足」，而是自己的父母。現在他已經被釋放，也希望繼續學習。

I think we can help them. If we really care about them, if they really show remorse, then can we give them a second chance? I think we can. You are not just helping the kid himself, you're helping the family as well. If he comes out, nobody cares about him; if he wants to find a job, nobody would give him a job; if he wants to continue to pursue study, no school will allow him, then who will be the most happy one? The anti-government activists.

我想我們可以幫助他們。如果我們真的關心他們，如果他們真的有悔過之心，那我們能不能再給他們一個機會？我認為我們可以。這樣做不僅僅是在幫助你那個孩子，也是在幫助孩子所在的家庭。如果他出來了但沒有人關心他，如果他想找工作但沒有人願意給他工作，如果他想繼續深造但沒有學校錄取他，那麼誰會是最開心的人呢？就是那一群反政府活動分子。

So again, I wish to emphasize that if we keep on talking about we care our young generation, then action, do something. We shall not disdain them, we shall give them a chance.

所以我想再次強調，如果我們還關心年輕的一代，那就要行動起來，去做點什麼。我們不應輕視他們，而是要給他們機會。
