Chan Yuet-ming, MH (Chinese: 陳月明; born 1972) is a Hong Kong politician. She is a member of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong for Election Committee constituency and an ex-officio member of the North District Council as chairwoman of the Ta Kwu Ling Rural Committee.

Biography[edit]

Chan was born into the indigenous family in Ta Kwu Ling, New Territories. Her father Chan Kam-wah was a village leader and her brother Frankie Chan Shung-fai was the chairman of the Ta Kwu Ling Rural Committee until she replaced him in the 2019 Hong Kong Rural Representative election, after her father gave way to her to become the first Rural Committee chairwoman in Hong Kong's history.[1][2]

Chan was graduated from the Manchester Metropolitan University with a bachelor's degree in Hospitality Business Management and obtained a Master of Business Management from European University.[3]

Chan became the chairwoman of the Ta Kwu Ling Rural Committee and therefore an ex-officio member of the North District Council.[4] She was also appointed member of the Advisory Committee on the Northern Metropolis in 2023.

She was elected through the Election Committee constituency in the 2021 Legislative Council election.[5]
