People Power is a Hong Kong political party/grouping, formed in early 2011 after Raymond Wong and Albert Chan quit the League of Social Democrats, citing disagreement with leader Andrew To and his faction. About a hundred of their supporters joined them, leaving the LSD in disarray.[1][2]
Wong and Chan sit in the Legislative Council of Hong Kong as representatives of People Power.
