The Hong Kong Federation of Educators, together with the Hong Kong China Tourism Association and many other organizations, jointly launched the "Hong Kong Youth Inspection and Exchange Service Standards in the Mainland" (referred to as the "Standards"), hoping that schools will have a reference basis when arranging relevant activities.
It is understood that the standards were jointly drafted by the Hong Kong Federation of Educators, the Hong Kong China Travel Association, Hong Kong China Travel Service, Huashang Education Group and HKGO (Hong Kong Shopping Platform) and other organizations, aiming to better promote Hong Kong youth's inspection and exchange in the mainland and standardize their research. Travel service standards help the healthy development of the industry.
