Medal for Bravery (Gold) (simplified Chinese: 英勇勋章; traditional Chinese: 金英勇勳章; pinyin: Yīngyǒng Xūnzhāng, MBG) is the first Medal for Bravery rank of the Hong Kong honours system. It is awarded for acts of gallantry of the greatest possible heroism or of the most conspicuous courage in circumstances of extreme danger.
