Randy W Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) from CGTN Chinese People's Police Day: A due salute to the police Quote China's first national Police Day to be celebrated on Sunday, January 10. The Chinese People's Police Day aims to give full recognition to the police for their efforts in protecting citizens while they go about their daily lives. January 10 was chosen in connection to the police hotline 110. On January 10, 1986, Guangzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau launched China's first police hotline with the number 110. In 1996, China's Ministry of Public Security held a meeting to make the hotline nationwide. After over 30 years, 110 has become a symbol of the police force as well as one of the household phone numbers people immediately think of when in danger.
