The Kowloon West geographical constituency is one of the five geographical constituencies of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. It was established in 1998 following a reform to the electoral system for the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. It currently elects six members of the Legislative Council using the Hare quota of party-list proportional representation. In the 1998 election there were three seats. The constituency corresponds to the districts of Yau Tsim Mong, Sham Shui Po, and Kowloon City.

History

The constituency was formed since the 1998 legislative election, replacing a number of single-member constituencies in 1995. These were Kowloon West and parts of Kowloon Central in the 1991 election with dual-seat constituency dual-vote system and Kowloon Southwest, Kowloon West, Kowloon South, and Kowloon Central in the 1995 election. From 1985 to 1991, the seats were elected by the electoral colleges composed of the members of the district boards and Urban Council.
