Law Society of Hong Kong

The Law Society is currently headed by President Roden Tong (湯文龍) and is located on the third floor of Wing On House in Central.[3] In 2014, the society underwent its first ever motion of no confidence in its president over his declared support for the white paper published by the PRC on the city's autonomy in which patriotism was a prerequisite for the territory's judges.[8] One day later, it was discovered that president Chan Chak-ming attended a birthday party hosted by Witman Hung Wai-man, with 222 guests.[11] In November 2022, president Chan Chak-ming said that he and 3 vice-presidents recently went overseas to dispel ideas that "there is no judicial independence, fair trials and free speech" in Hong Kong.On the 22nd of July 2022, the Society uploaded a music video of 《Love for Hong Kong – 法治新一代》, "a song dedicated to the learning and protection of the rule of law amongst the general public, in particular young people", to its official YouTube channel.
