Reform Club of Hong Kong

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Reform Club of Hong Kong (香港革新會) was a Hong Kong political group founded in 1949 by Brook Bernacchi. For some time the Reform Club and the Civic Association were the closest to opposition parties in Hong Kong as its members contested Urban Council elections. In 1979, the Reform Club threatened to boycott elections if the Urban Council would not receive a majority of elected members and universal franchise was extended to all Hong Kong citizens. In 1982, it took part in the elections for the newly established district boards in the urban districts, which significantly extended the franchise.
