葉傲冬

English

Yip Ngo-tung, who holds the Bronze Bauhinia Star and is a Justice of the Peace, is a Hong Kong politician, secretary-general of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB), and a member of the eighth-term Legislative Council representing the New Territories South East geographical constituency. He comes from a political family: his father, Yip Kwok-chung, was a DAB member and a former chairman of the Yau Tsim Mong District Council, and he was raised on his father's teaching that the most important thing for a district councillor is to help residents rather than seek fame. He served the Yau Tsim Mong area for about seventeen years in total, taking root there in the late 2000s, being returned repeatedly as a district councillor and serving as chairman of the Yau Tsim Mong District Council before losing his seat in the 2019 District Council election. In the 2023 District Council election he returned to the council, winning the fiercely contested Yau Tsim Mong South constituency and becoming an elected member of the seventh Yau Tsim Mong District Council. He has long been the DAB's secretary-general, taking part in the party's organisation and district work, and his occupation is company director. In the 2025 Legislative Council election he left the Yau Tsim Mong base he had built up over the years and stood in the New Territories South East geographical constituency. He was elected with 26,250 votes, entering the Legislative Council for the first time alongside Christine Fong of Professional Power, and took office on 1 January 2026. He said his experience as district council chairman had been good training that gave him an edge in handling problems and communicating with the government. He stressed that transport within the district is his main concern and that he would continue his commitment to helping residents by going into the community to understand their real needs.
