Tommy Cheung
Tommy Cheung Yu-yan, GBS, JP (Chinese: 張宇人, born 30 September 1949 in Hong Kong) is a Hong Kong politician and former member of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong (LegCo), representing the Catering functional constituency. He is also a non-official member of the Executive Council of Hong Kong and is leader of the Liberal Party, having previously served as party chairman from 2016 to 2022.
He graduated from the Diocesan Boys' School and Pepperdine University. He was previously a member of the Eastern District Council. He is a businessman, chairman of a trading and investment company, and a member of the Diocesan Boys' School school committee.
In late 2005, when there were strong concerns regarding a potential "bird flu" pandemic, Cheung became "an outspoken opponent of migratory birds". He stated that migrating birds were the source of the pandemic threat.
On 20 March 2010, after Cheung suggested a minimum wage of HK$20/hour, he became the subject of insults and derision from labour quarters, nicknamed "$20 Cheung".
During the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, Cheung spoke out against the government's extension of mandatory social distancing measures. He complained that catering constituents were suffering due to mandatory closures of some types of businesses, such as bars and karaoke centres, and accused the government of "not understanding economics".
In January 2021, Cheung partially blamed teachers for the 2019–20 Hong Kong protests and that CCTV cameras should be installed in classrooms to monitor teachers for "subversive remarks."
In December 2022, Cheung was one of three lawmakers who drafted legislation to reform CUHK's governing council, saying "During the anti-government turmoil in 2019, there was a riot on the campus of CUHK but the attitude and handling of the incident by CUHK were appalling.
In December 2022, Cheung said "We need to take action to correct such behaviour that is this disrespectful to Hong Kong and to our country" and that he would support summing Google to the Legislative Council, to answer questions on why Glory to Hong Kong was ranked so highly when searching for the national anthem of Hong Kong. At the same month, he was tested positive for COVID-19.
