My Team Had Done a Great Job in Southern

There's an overwhelming view that we democrat lost badly in this district election. As a whole, I won't deny that it's a cruel fact that we must accept.

But the situation in Southern is quite different. My team had done a great job.

My party has most candidates (5 in total) took part in this election in Southern, a district long time dominated by so-called "traditional individual community activist". Because of our community work, we won in 3 constituencies; there are Andrew Fung Wai Kwong in South Horizons (West), Henry Chai Man Hon in Wah Fu (2), and my constituency Wong Chuk Hang.

D07	South Horizons West	1	FUNG Wai-kwong	1,747*
		2	LAW Kam-hung	1,419

D10	Wah Fu II	1	CHAI Man-hon	2,450*
		2	TSANG Tze-kwan, Marina	1,046

D15	Wong Chuk Hang	1	HUI Wan-mai	301
		2	TSUI Yuen-wa	2,073*
		3	WONG Choi-lap	1,277

Actually, we DO have chance to win in 5 constituencies.

The other 2 democrats, who lost in  a tiny margin, 87 in Wah Kwai and only 27 in Lee Tung (2). And I have to remind you that even though there's no July 1 effect in this election, we gained more votes than before; and in Lee Tung(2), my team member, LO Kin-hei, is just a 23 year old young man, but fighting a incumbent who in office for more than a decade! He gained 1478 votes, only lost for 27 votes. He had done a brilliant job!

D05	Lei Tung II	1	LO Kin-hei	1,478
		2	WONG Che-ngai	1,505*

D08	Wah Kwai	1	HUNG Tenny	1,337
		2	YEUNG Siu-pik (Lina)	2,077

There’s a public opinion that we democrats just focuses on our work in fighting for democracy, but have not done it well in community work. My team in Southern proves it is not true. We have been doing quite a lot of community works, and they were reflected in the result of this election.

We will keep working hard in Southern, both in political issues and livelihood issues.
