Roy Kwong Chun-yu (Chinese: 鄺俊宇; born 9 February 1983) is a Hong Kong politician and novelist. He is member of the Democratic Party and member of the Yuen Long District Council for Pek Long. He became member of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong in 2016 through the District Council (Second) "super seat".
Kwong worked in a youth centre in Long Ping Estate, Yuen Long before joined the officer of the Democratic Party's Yuen Long District Councillor Zachary Wong as a community officer in 2004 and subsequently joined the party.
In 2007 District Council elections, 24-year-old Kwong ran in Pek Long of the Yuen Long District Council, defeating a veteran pro-Beijing Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB) incumbent Chan Siu-kay. He went on to be re-elected in 2011 and 2015.
As a 25-year-old, Kwong became the youngest candidate in the 2008 Legislative Council election, running in New Territories West with Cheung Yin-tung but was not elected. In the 2012 Legislative Council election, he ran with party chairman Albert Ho in the territory-wide District Council (Second) “super seat” and successfully helped Ho to be elected. In September 2016, he will succeed outgoing Albert Ho in contesting the District Council (Second) “super seat” in the Legislative Council election along with veteran James To.
