Kohima Camp (Chinese: 高希馬軍營) was a military camp in Tai Po Tsai north of Clear Water Bay Peninsula in Hong Kong. The camp was built by British Army and demolished in 1980s when the army gradually withdrew from Hong Kong. The land became the site of a new university, namely The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, in 1986. Before the construction of the university, The Scout Association of Hong Kong made use of the camp to set up a Jamboree, namely the Hong Kong Diamond Jubilee Jamboree for the 75th anniversary of Hong Kong Scouting between 1986-12-27 and 1987-01-01.[citation needed]
