Biography

Ray Wong Toi-yeung (Chinese: 黃台仰; born 15 September 1993) is a Hong Kong activist. He is the founder of the localist camp group Hong Kong Indigenous, established alongside other activists disillusioned with the perceived ineffectiveness of Hong Kong's mainstream pro-democracy movement during the 2014 Hong Kong protests. Wong played a prominent role in the 2016 Mong Kok civil unrest, which took place on Lunar New Year's Day (8 February 2016). Following the incident, he was arrested later that month. He later fled Hong Kong and became the first British national to be granted asylum in a member state of the European Union.
