History

Tseung Kwan O Shining was formed in 2019 ahead the 2019 District Council election by a group of Sai Kung and Tseung Kwan O residents, aiming at running against the uncontested pro-Beijing candidates, improving community livelihood and supervising the governmental institutes.[1] The group filled two candidates in the 2019 election, with Yu Tsun-ning contesting in Hang Hau West and Brandon Kenneth Yip running in Wai King. Both candidates won in their respective constituencies.
