Chinese People’s Police Day is an official professional observance in China celebrated annually on January 10, corresponding with the country's emergency response number 110.

The decision to introduce Chinese People's Police Day was approved in July 2020 in recognition of the extraordinary work by the country's public security guardians, according to the Xinhua News Agency.

With honorific traditions and fine conduct, the police force has sacrificed the most and contributed the greatest in times of peace.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, more than 14,000 police officers have laid down their lives, according to the Ministry of Public Security.

Today, let’s salute to unsung heroes——Chinese people’s police!
