Elizabeth Wong

Wong Siu-yee, a China-friendly politician who stole the limelight for his attacks on RTHK, admits he has difficulty in adapting to the quiet life after a year on the provisional legislature.

WONG SIU-YEE no longer has to rush to Legco meetings. Now his biggest problem is how to spend his days.

'I am used to being busy. I attended meetings around the clock for 18 months. Going to Shenzhen, coming back to Hong Kong, on and on. Never having a break.

'Suddenly, one day, there was no meeting . . . I didn't know what to do. I just can't get used to it,' Mr Wong said.

A company director, he was defeated by veteran legislator Selina Chow Liang Shuk-yee of the Liberal Party in the race for the wholesale and retail seat.

But he doesn't believe his political career is over.
