The city's biggest pro-Beijing party, Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong, announced today it will be fielding 18 candidates in the coming Legco elections. Meanwhile, incumbent DAB lawmakers Ann Chiang Lai-wan, Wong Ting-Kwong, Wilson Or Chong-shing and Leung Che-cheung will not seek re-election. Among the 10 members each running for a seat in their respective geographical constituencies, three of them were Legco election debutants, including Edward Leung Hei, Stanley Li Sai-wing, and Chan Hok-fung. Lee said Beijing has not chosen the party's candidates, and the DAB came up with its list after internal negotiations. There are a lot of reports in different media saying in certain districts there are three or even four candidates,” she said.
