Bypassing airport security edit

On 21 May 2018, Ma Fun-kwok allegedly used his status as a legislator to bypass airport security rules to bring a 200g bottle of hair gel into the restricted area.[1]

Legislative Council edit

In December 2021, it was reported that Ma had a "privileged" vote in the 2021 Hong Kong legislative election, where the vote would count approximately 7,215 times more than an ordinary citizen.[2]

In January 2022, the mainland Chinese national emblem was permanently added to the Legislative Council chamber, after Andrew Leung, Starry Lee Wai-king and Ma Fung-kwok decided that it should be made permanent.[3] Andrew Leung had earlier said it would be only temporary for the swearing in of lawmakers.[3]

In July 2022, Ma said that many teenagers in Hong Kong would like to serve in the mainland Chinese military.[4]

In November 2023, Hong Kong Free Press reported that Ma was accused, along with other directors, of "forcibly seizing control" of a company by using legal proceedings against the company.[5]
