The party aimed at upholding the Hong Kong residents holding foreign passports. It took a conservative and pro-Beijing stance as its Chairman Guy Lam Kwok-hung, who was a Canadian citizen,[1] said Hong Kong should not be hostile towards Beijing as it was reverting to Mainland China. Lam also said it was fortunate the Tiananmen Square protests occurred before the huge changes in Eastern Europe as Hong Kong needs a stable China.[2]
Guy Lam campaigned for a seat in the Legislative Council in the 1995 elections,[3] but lost to Democratic Party's Huang Chen-ya in Island West constituency.
The party ceased to exist in 2007.[4]
