English

Dennis Kwok Wing-hang, born on 15 April 1978 in Edmonton, Canada, is a practising Hong Kong barrister and a former member of the Legislative Council, a founding member of the Civic Party who represented the legal functional constituency from 2012 to 2020. He returned to Hong Kong with his family in 1981 and later studied in the United Kingdom, attending Rugby School; he graduated with a bachelor of laws degree from King's College London in 1999, then returned to Hong Kong, took the postgraduate certificate in laws and became a practising barrister, working mainly on commercial and corporate law, and joined the Civic Party. In 2012 he was elected to the Legislative Council for the legal functional constituency and was re-elected in 2016, serving as deputy chairman of the House Committee from 2016 and as deputy chairman of the panel on administration of justice and legal services. In the council he followed the rule of law, judicial independence, the development of the legal profession and IT law, one of the few pro-democracy lawmakers with a legal professional background. From October 2019, as deputy chairman of the House Committee, he presided over the election of its chairman; the process dragged on for more than half a year without a chairman being chosen and the committee was paralysed, drawing public criticism from the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council and the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government. In 2020 he submitted his nomination for the Legislative Council election but was later disqualified from standing; on 11 November that year, after the National People's Congress Standing Committee made a decision on the qualifications of Legislative Council members, he and three other pro-democracy lawmakers were unseated. He then announced his retirement from politics and left Hong Kong, going first to Canada and then the United States, where from July 2021 he was a visiting fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School.
