Tsuen Wan Community Network (Chinese: 荃灣社區網絡) is a local political group based in Tsuen Wan founded in 2015. In a historic pro-democracy landslide in 2019 District Council election, the group won one seat in the Tsuen Wan District Council.
History
The group was formed in 2015 as a Tsuen Wan-based community group. Its leader Lam Shek-tim ran in the 2015 District Council election against Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB) legislator Chan Han-pan in Yeung Uk Road but lost. It was part of the Community Network Union, a localist political alliance of six community groups led by pro-independence Ventus Lau.[1] The Tuen Mun Community Network later quit the Union in 2018.
Lam Shek-tim ran in Yeung Uk Road in the 2019 District Council election and defeated Chan Han-pan's successor Ng Chun-yu with narrow margin of 174 votes in the pro-democracy historic landslide victory.
