He has also been a member of the Eastern District Fire Safety Committee and general legal counsel of the Hong Kong Asia-Pacific Alliance Chamber of Commerce, speaking on society and legal issues. On 1 January 2024 he was appointed by the Chief Executive to the 7th District Council (2024-2027). On the council he is a member of the District Facilities and Works Committee, the Community Involvement, Culture and Recreation Committee and the Social Welfare Committee, and of the task group on boosting the local economy and the Building Management Working Group. As a barrister he actively provides pro bono legal advice to residents and has co-organised free legal consultation events explaining the procedures and common pitfalls of making a will, which have benefited more than two hundred residents. His ward office is in the Chinachem Exchange Square in Quarry Bay. The Taikoo Shing West seat he contested in 2019 was ultimately won by Andrew Chiu, and the current Eastern District Council has thirty members.
