"With my candidacy, I want to show the world that despite the suppression from a communist regime, Hongkongers choose not to surrender, not to kowtow to China," Wong told reporters today. An ally of Tang's in Kowloon East is the DAB's Joe Lai, who is a former district councillor. The DAB's Ben Chan, who is seeking to retain his seat in New Territories West, said lawmakers should be monitoring the government, but not to try and "mutually destruct" with the administration and halt the entire society. Civic Passion's Cheng Chung-tai has also submitted his bid in New Territories West. Alice Mak from the Federation of Trade Unions also submitted her papers to seek re-election in New Territories West.
