As an extension of the "killed" Urban Council, district boards without real power have traditionally been regarded as a consultative framework for handling people's livelihood work. This time, a large-scale victory was achieved in the district elections. Democrats have the same goal to reform the conference and continue to fight for democracy at the regional level. Seven Democratic District Councillors of Tuen Mun District held a "Heart with You" today to discuss with the public neighborhoods the next livelihood and political goals and work. Fu Jiaxin Li Jiawei explained that in the past, DC members were only "relatively well-known residents who have food." However, after recent anti-revision storms, the society has a vision for community change, and believes that each step of a person can bring a lot of Change, so I hope the neighborhood can actively participate.

Top-down political model

Zeng Jinrong of Longmen District pointed out that the past political model was "top down". He said that he had only focused on the macro situation in Hong Kong. After the umbrella movement, he felt sad for Hong Kong. After the anti-revision incident, Zeng Jinrong made a reflection and thought that he could spend more time in his place of residence. Regarding the regaining of the district's conversational power by the pan-people this time, Zeng Jinrong believes that the problems that have been neglected in the past should be solved, and they should be done by the region and then distributed to the entire Hong Kong.

Zeng Jinrong said that the pursuit of the "five major demands" is a long way. It is necessary to build large demands by building small cornerstones, make good use of everyone as community capital, and have different struggles in different positions to link together to solve social problems. It also means that the success of this constituency election is not a victory. The real victory is to change the structure of the entire government.

The Democratic Party and Lu Junyu of Lecui District emphasized that justice must be manifested in society, so people's livelihood and democratic issues must be promoted in the community. It is also said that the region and the democratic movement must be in line with each other, and the people put pressure on the government. "When it comes to connect and connect, we have to rely on ourselves."
