Kingsley Wong Kwok is a Hong Kong trade union leader and politician, and president of the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions (FTU). Rising through the union movement, he became a vice-president of the FTU in April 2015 and took over as president in 2018, becoming one of the organisation's leading figures. He has also served as a part-time adviser to the Central Policy Unit, a member of the Commission on Strategic Development and a member of the Minimum Wage Commission, and sat on the Hainan provincial committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, speaking on labour rights, retirement protection and grassroots livelihood issues. In the 2021 Legislative Council election he was returned for the Election Committee constituency alongside FTU president Ng Chau-pei, taking office in January 2022. In the council he promoted labour and grassroots policies for the federation, pressing for better retirement protection, stronger employment support, improved occupational safety and a review of the minimum wage. He has argued that workers should share in the fruits of economic growth and that the government must take full account of grassroots needs when making policy, and he has repeatedly put the federation's proposals to the government on policy addresses and budgets. In March 2023 he was appointed a member of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and became a deputy director of its proposals committee, taking part in national-level political consultation. In the 2025 Legislative Council election he successfully retained his Election Committee seat and began the Eighth Legislative Council term in 2026. Awarded the Bronze Bauhinia Star and appointed a Justice of the Peace, he has built long experience spanning the union movement and the legislature and stresses the need to secure fair rights and upward mobility for workers.
