The Democratic Party of Hong Kong is set to begin disbanding amid a repressive political climate influenced by Beijing. Chairman Lo Kin-hei indicated that a final decision will depend on a members' vote, though he did not specify when that vote would occur. Founded in 1994 and instrumental in shaping Hong Kong's political landscape, the party has faced severe challenges following the imposition of the national security law. With members imprisoned and no legislative representation, the party reflects the struggle of pro-democracy forces against draconian measures from the Chinese government.
Lo Kin-hei, the chair of Hong Kong's Democratic party, stated that they would start the process of disbanding the party considering the political environment.
The Democratic party was once a significant opposition voice but has seen its influence diminish following Beijing's implementation of a national security law.
