Background

Wong was born in Hong Kong in 1959, and graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong with a Bachelor of Arts in Religion and Master of Philosophy. She continued on to receive her Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy in political science from the University of California, Los Angeles.

She joined the Hong Kong Christian Council in 1984, working on political policies and social affairs. She co-founded the Hong Kong Christian Institute in 1988, an ecumenical Christian non-governmental organisation outside the institutional constraints of the church. She also chaired the Hong Kong Women Christian Council from 1999 to 2002.[4]

She has lectured at Hong Kong Polytechnic University since 1999, with a focus on Hong Kong and mainland China, and women's issues. She held the coordinator position for GEC2801 China Studies from 2004 to 2006.

Political career

Wong joined the Hong Kong Democratic Foundation in 1989 and co-founded the first major pro-democracy party, the United Democrats of Hong Kong which became the Democratic Party in 1994.[4]

She became a member in the Election Committee for a sub-sector in Higher Education in 2011.

In 2012, Wong was elected into the Legislative Council of Hong Kong for the Kowloon West constituency.[3][4]

She gained fame when she exposed the lead contamination in tap water at Kai Ching Estate in Kowloon City. This was dubbed "Hong Kong water-gate" in July 2015.[5]

Personal life

Wong decided not to be a traditional housewife, deciding not to get married early in order to focus on her studies. In 2001, she married Dr Shae Wan-chaw, an associate professor at Hong Kong Polytechnic University, at the age of 42.[5]
