Month: March 2026

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 30 March 2026 -The Hong Kong Public Relations Professionals’ Association (PRPA) successfully hosted its Annual General Meeting (AGM) Dinner. Following the kick off of the Association’s 30th anniversary, this year marks the Association’s official entry into a new chapter. The dinner brought together numerous public relations (PR) industry elites, business leaders, academic representatives, and media friends to jointly witness this significant moment as the Association builds on its past and opens a new chapter.

Mr Richard Tsang, Chairman of the Organising Committee, and Prof. Kwan Chuk-fai, Honorary President, expressed their deepest gratitude to Dr John Chan, Advisor to the Association, for his long-standing support. In addition, Dr Chan has long served as the Chairman of the PRPA Organising Committee and Advisor since the inception of the “Hong Kong Public Relations Awards”. Over the years, he has facilitated the Association’s development with his wealth of experience and unfailing support, providing valuable guidance to the industry. The Association extends highest respect and gratitude to Dr Chan for his unwavering commitment and dedication over the years.

Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education (Shatin), St. Paul’s College, Tai Po Old Market Public School Crowned Champions with St. Paul’s Convent School Named Most Active Participant

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 30 March 2026 – Samsung ‘Solve for Tomorrow,’ a global inter-school technology competition operating in 68 countries, has been held in Hong Kong since 2013, empowering youth to address social and global challenges through innovation. This year, two core themes guided participants: Topic 1: Environmental Sustainability via Technology — Create sustainable solutions to protect our planet via AI, and Topic 2: Social Change through Sport & Tech: For Better Futures — Harness the power of AI technology and sports to open new opportunities. Both themes rigorously challenged students to innovate beyond traditional boundaries, leveraging AI and cutting-edge technologies to develop creative, practical solutions to complex societal issues and actively shape a better future.

Running from September 2025 to March 2026, the competition, co-organized by AiTLE and fully backed by the HKSAR Education Bureau’s ‘Business-School Partnership Programme’ and Hong Kong Education City, attracted over 250 teams from 100 tertiary, secondary and primary schools. Each team demonstrated unique technological approaches to tackle pressing social issues.

Yiyin Zhao, Managing Director, Samsung Electronics H.K. Company, Limited, stated: ‘Samsung has always believed technology is not merely a tool for changing lives, but a vital force driving social progress. ‘Solve for Tomorrow’ empowers young people to leverage creative thinking and technology to address real-world needs and challenges. It’s more than a competition; it’s a journey of innovative exploration that nurtures and empowers the younger generation. The widespread adoption of AI, in particular, presents unprecedented opportunities for innovation. This year, we were delighted to see students actively using AI and diverse technological solutions across the community, environment, sports, and sustainability, submitting outstanding, inspiring, and practical work. This truly demonstrates the remarkable creativity, keen observation, and effective problem-solving skills of Hong Kong’s youth.”

Samsung Nurtures Tomorrow’s Tech & Innovation Leaders
She also hopes the competition will encourage more students to step out of their comfort zones: “Beyond stimulating creativity and developing innovative solutions, we aim to cultivate critical skills: problem-solving, critical thinking, teamwork, and communication. This equips students to navigate the challenges of our rapidly evolving intelligent era confidently. We believe this competition will discover and cultivate the next generation of innovation and technology talent, contributing significantly to both Hong Kong’s and global innovation.

Samsung Solve for Tomorrow extends beyond monetary rewards, actively aligning with the Education Bureau’s ‘Business-School Partnership Programme’ to provide invaluable hands-on experience. Tertiary champions secure corporate internships, while secondary champions and first runners-up gain critical work experience, preparing them for future careers. The competition ignites students’ passion for technology and STEM, building a robust foundation for their innovation journeys and continually inspiring alumni to pursue pioneering solutions.

Final Awards Reveal Extraordinary Creativity
After the initial judging round, 95 outstanding projects advanced. They then refined their innovative solutions in Design Thinking workshops and through expert guidance. The judging panel then selected the nine finalists—the top three teams from each category, who will present their detailed project concepts and results, vying for the ultimate recognition.

Tertiary Category Champion “AquaPulse” – Developed by the Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education (Shatin), AquaPulse is an AI coastal protection system powered by continuous 24/7 tidal and solar energy with integrated storage. It reliably detects abnormalities such as falling into the sea, even at night or in adverse weather, using millimeter-wave radar and AI vision. Upon detection, it instantly notifies rescue teams via lamppost positioning, significantly shortening response times. AquaPulse also monitors environmental data, aiming to create safer, more sustainable waterfronts for Hong Kong.

Secondary Category Champion “Plastine” – Developed by St. Paul’s College, Plastine is a solar-powered microplastic removal system for freshwater environments. It utilizes advanced electrocoagulation with aluminum electrodes to aggregate microplastics for efficient filtration and collection. Combining IoT sensors and AI algorithms, Plastine intelligently identifies optimal deployment locations. Focused on Hong Kong’s microplastic-rich rivers, it purifies water, safeguards public health, and restores aquatic ecosystems.

Primary Category Champion “Yoga 24 Go!” Wellness Exercise App – Developed by Tai Po Old Market Public School, “Yoga 24 Go!” is an innovative wellness application. It intelligently integrates the health wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine’s 24 solar terms with the body’s 12 meridians. Guiding users through specific yoga poses for each solar term, the app promotes “seasonal wellness” by targeting health goals such as nourishing the liver in spring, the heart in summer, the lungs in autumn, and the kidneys in winter

香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年3月30日 – 香港人的心理健康狀況亮起紅燈。根據去年的「全港抑鬱指數調查」¹ 顯示，港人抑鬱及焦慮指數平均分達7.27分及5.9分，創2012年以來新高；其中Z世代（18至24歲）情況最為嚴峻，且發現過度使用電子產品與情緒困擾有關係密切。

面對情緒低谷，高達55%的受訪者對尋求專業協助持遲疑態度，而「AI助手」更首次躍升為求助選項的第六位。有見及此，苗苗醫療增設精神科專科服務，全方位支援兒童、成人及長者精神健康，涵蓋ADHD（專注力不足／過度活躍症）、ASD（自閉症譜系障礙）及各類精神焦慮症狀，提供專業臨床診斷，呼籲市民切勿過度依賴虛擬互動而延誤治療黃金期。

虛擬互動難取代真實連結 情緒支援仍需要「人」

隨著AI成為新興的情緒傾訴渠道，其即時回應與低門檻特性，讓不少人在面對壓力時更容易「開口」。然而，專家指出，AI互動始終建基於演算法與資料回應，未必能準確理解個人處境與情緒深度。香港心理衞生會副總幹事黃敏信² 提醒，對於已有情緒困擾的人士，若將AI生成內容視為真實，或長期以虛擬互動取代人際交流，未必有助處理根本問題，甚至可能延誤尋求專業支援的適當時機。

相比起冰冷、缺乏人情味的機械對話，與真實的人類溝通、表達情緒，在心理健康一環仍具備不可替代的價值。面對面溝通不僅能提供情感支持，亦讓專業人士透過細緻觀察與深度聆聽，再透過語言、表情及行為等多方面作出全面評估，從而提供更合適的個人化建議與支援。

以人為本的精神健康支援 回應多元需要

有見社會對精神健康服務的需求日益增加，苗苗醫療 (SEED MEDICAL) 現已設立精神科專科服務，由經驗豐富的精神科專科醫生主理，為不同年齡層的市民提供全面的評估、診斷及合適支援，包括：

• 兒童及青少年精神健康服務：支援專注力不足／過度活躍症（ADHD）、學習障礙（SEN）、自閉症譜系（ASD）及各類兒童行為問題，提供早期評估與介入。
• 成人精神健康服務：包括焦慮、抑鬱、壓力相關問題及情緒困擾
• 長者精神健康支援：針對認知障礙症 (腦退化症)、情緒問題及睡眠障礙等情況

在日常生活中，透過不同方式紓緩壓力屬自然現象，AI工具亦可作為輔助。然而，當情緒困擾持續或影響生活時，專業醫護人員才是你康復路上的真實夥伴。如市民或身邊人正面對精神健康困擾，及早尋求專業意見，有助清晰了解自身狀況並作出適切應對。

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 30 March 2026 – Mental health in Hong Kong has reached a critical “red light” status. According to last year’s “The Mental Health Association of Hong Kong” survey¹, the average scores for depression and anxiety among Hong Kong residents reached 7.27 and 5.9, respectively—marking the highest levels recorded since 2012. The findings highlight that Gen Z (aged 18 to 24) faces the most severe mental health crisis, with a strong correlation identified between excessive electronic device usage and emotional distress.

When facing emotional lows, as many as 55% of respondents remain hesitant to seek professional help, while “AI Assistants” have climbed to the sixth most popular choice for seeking support for the first time. In response to these trends, Seed Medical has launched its new Specialist Psychiatric Services, providing comprehensive mental health support for children, adults, and the elderly. Covering conditions such as ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder), ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), and various symptoms of anxiety, the clinic provides professional clinical diagnoses and urges the public not to over-rely on virtual interactions, which may lead to missing the “golden window” for effective treatment.

Virtual Interaction Cannot Replace Human Connection; Emotional Support Still Requires a “Human Touch”

As AI emerges as a new channel for emotional expression, its immediacy and low barrier to access have made it easier for many individuals to “open up” when facing stress. However, experts note that AI interactions are fundamentally based on algorithms and data-driven responses, and may not accurately capture an individual’s personal context or emotional depth.

Mr. Wong Man Shun², Deputy Executive Director of the Hong Kong Mental Health Association, cautioned that for individuals already experiencing emotional distress, treating AI-generated content as reality or relying on virtual interaction in place of real human relationships may not address the root of the issue. In some cases, it may even delay timely access to professional support.

Compared with impersonal, machine-based interactions, communicating with real people and expressing emotions remain irreplaceable components of mental well-being. Face-to-face communication not only provides emotional support, but also enables professionals to conduct comprehensive assessments through careful observation and active listening—taking into account verbal and non-verbal cues—thereby offering more appropriate, personalised guidance and support.

Person-Centered Mental Health Support: Addressing Diverse Needs

In response to the growing demand for mental health services, Seed Medical has officially launched its Psychiatric Services. Led by experienced psychiatrists, the center provides comprehensive assessment, diagnosis, and tailored support for all age groups, including:

• Child and Adolescent Mental Health: Supporting Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Special Educational Needs (SEN), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and various behavioral challenges through early assessment and intervention.
• Adult Mental Health: Addressing anxiety, depression, stress-related issues, and emotional difficulties.
• Elderly Mental Health Support: Specialized care for dementia(cognitive decline), emotional health issues, and sleep disorders.

While it is natural to seek different ways, including AI tools, to relieve stress in daily life, when emotional distress persists or begins to affect daily functioning, professional healthcare support remains essential.

If citizens or those close to them are experiencing mental health challenges, seeking professional advice at an early stage can help provide clarity and facilitate appropriate next steps.
