Vincent Fang Kang, GBS, JP, was born in Shanghai on 7 May 1943 with ancestral roots in Anhui, and is a Hong Kong garment merchant and former leader of the Liberal Party. He attended Kowloon Tong School (Primary Section) and Wah Yan College, Hong Kong (graduating in 1962), then studied textile engineering at North Carolina State University, earning a bachelor's degree in 1967 and a master's in 1969. His elder brother is Fang Hang. The family founded the Toppy International group in 1973, specialising in women's wear under brands including Toppy, Episode and Colour 18; he was chief executive of Toppy (Hong Kong) Ltd and managing director of a garment manufacturer. In 2004 he was elected to LegCo for the Wholesale and Retail functional constituency for the Liberal Party, succeeding Selina Chow, who moved to contest New Territories West, and was re-elected twice, serving until 2016. In July 2006 he strongly opposed the goods and services tax, chairing the Anti-Sales Tax Alliance. After the Liberal Party lost all its directly elected seats in the 2008 election and both chairman James Tien and vice-chairwoman Selina Chow resigned, Fang was appointed a party vice-chairman to help rebuild it. On 1 December 2014 he succeeded James Tien as party leader, handing over to Felix Chung on 7 October 2016, and he did not seek re-election that year. His public posts have included membership of the Hospital Authority and the Travel Industry Council, chairmanship of the hospital governing committees of Princess Margaret and Kwai Chung hospitals, the chairmanship of the Quality Tourism Services Association, and a seat on the national committee of the CPPCC.
