The attendance rates are 35.42% and 42.8% respectively. Hou Zhiqiang left the scene after staying less than 15% in 3 meetings.
Both Liang Zhixiang and Liang Yaozhong were both members of the Legislative Council. Liang Zhixiang confessed to the enquiry that it was difficult to take care of both sides of the work. Therefore, he decided not to go to the District Council this time. He continued that the Yuen Long District Council was on Tuesday, but the Development Committee and the Welfare Committee of the Legislative Council were both held on Tuesday. Sometimes they were unable to attend the meeting and described "forced to choose."
Mr Leung Yiu-kung also said that the Kwai Tsing District Conference was held on Thursday. However, the current Legislative Council meeting is generally not completed on Wednesday.

I tried to flash the meeting for 4 minutes. Hou Zhiqiang: I took part in the three positions and took the time to attend.
Hou Zhiqiang, who entered the North District Council as the chairman of the Rural Committee, said in response to the enquiry, "I am doing a low-profile attendance rate!" He continued to disclose that he is also a member of the Sheung Shui Rural Committee. And the Standing Committee of the Heung Yee Kuk, "To take care of the whole Heung Yee Kuk and the New Territories", the matter can be described as "no day and no time". However, he said that "the District Council Foods will be taken out as far as possible".
Looking at the actual time of the members, eight members tried to meet for less than five minutes. Hou Zhiqiang was also among them. In the first meeting in 2018, he only left for 4 minutes and left. On the same day, the Director of Water Supplies visited Hou Zhiqiang. During the "flash" period, the agenda discussed the issue of water pipes in rural cottages. Hou Hou said that there have been follow-up issues with the government departments at the Heung Yee Kuk. He said, "When you wait for the district boards, how many Members are sighing together?" He stressed that the Heung Yee Kuk is in the village. The blame is on the sidelines, and the people’s eyes are bright. "The villagers support me for more than two years."

Some Democrats, the Director of the Department, flashed quickly when they visited: "The establishment will definitely have no praise."
The second meeting of the Tsuen Wan District Council in Tseung Kwan O, the Senate and the Citizens' Party, was "flashed" for 2 minutes. At that time, the Director of Food and Environmental Hygiene, Mr Lau Lai-chun, visited. Mr Wong said, "You are not as good as it is. I have attended." He explained that a meeting is a must, but whenever the Director visits, the establishment will say "with no praise". If you know the topic "talking nonsense", you would rather write a complaint letter or contact the Civil Affairs Bureau directly, but sometimes the District Council Secretariat I will call the Legislative Council to attend the meeting, otherwise I will attend the meeting and he will also attend the meeting.
The Shatian Yao'an Constituency and the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of the People's Republic of China Li Shirong were one hour late in the 20th conference in 2018. It was once two minutes. Chairman He Houxiang later said that Li Shirong had taken leave at the meeting. Li Shirong said that he needed to check the reason for the "flash" again. However, he said that sometimes there is no way to ask for help or have an urgent matter. He told reporters that the attendance rate of the past four years was 100%.
In addition, District Nuo Xuan in Lidong District of Southern District and Zou Bingyi of Liwan Waterfront once left the box for 1 minute. Lu Yixing of Xiyingpan in Central and Western District, Tian Beichen of Discovery Bay in Tsuen Wan and Li Hongbo of Tsuen Wan Centre tried to attend the meeting only for 3 minutes. The meetings involving the five people are special meetings. District Nuo Xuan said that on the day of the incident, he would represent the Southern District Council to attend the meeting of the Social Welfare Department. Tian Beichen said that no special meeting was expected to be completed in 20 minutes, and he would have to go back to the Tsuen Wan from the Legislative Council. It means that "the meeting is open for a minute and you open it up"; Li Hongbo's "flash" meeting is the chairman of the by-election district board. The whole journey is only 10 minutes. Li is 7 minutes late. He replied that he only got one candidate and he had no choice.
The website was unable to contact Zou Bingzhen and Lu Yixing for a response. The minutes of the meeting showed that on March 5, 2019, Zou Bingzhen was dissatisfied with the District Council's special meeting on the "Vision of the Day of Tony" meeting. After the speech, he left the protest; Lu Yixing At the special meeting in 2016, he only attended for 3 minutes. After leaving the meeting, he authorized Chen Xuefeng of the same party to vote on the topic of the collapse of the Central Police Station building complex.
Calculation method:
1. Members who have left their posts, by-elections, or who have passed away will not be counted because they can attend fewer meetings than other members who have completed their entire term. It is unfair to compare them with the same criteria.
2. The statistical data is used to view the attendance records of the members through the minutes of the District Council meetings, as it is possible to clearly understand which meeting the district board members are absent.
3. The percentage is the 2 decimal places after the approximate number.
4. Members who have not been recorded due to the departure of the protests have not been counted because they have not been able to count the exact time.
5. Data until September 30, 2019, with a public meeting record.
