Kwok Ka-ki (Chinese: 郭家麒; born 20 July 1961) is a democratic Hong Kong politician currently serving as a member of the Legislative Council for New Territories West, having previously been the member for the Medical functional constituency. Kwok was previously a member of the Central and Western District Council, representing Mid Levels East. He is a private urology doctor, having graduated from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Hong Kong.[1] Kwok is a member of the Civic Party, having joined on July 19, 2010.

Political disqualification

Five weeks ahead of the 2020 Hong Kong Legislative Council Election, on 30 July, as Kwok prepared to defend his seat, the government stated that he was among a dozen pro-democracy candidates whose nominations were 'invalid', under an opaque process in which, nominally, civil servants - returning officers - assess whether, for instance, a candidate had objected to the enactment of the national security law, or was sincere in statements made disavowing separatism.[2]
