Kowloon Residents' Association

The Kowloon Residents' Association was one of the earliest political organisations in Hong Kong history founded in 1920.

It was formed by a group of Europeans residing on the Kowloon Peninsula, British Hong Kong on 20 January 1920.

[1] The group originally pressed for the control of high rent, providing recreational facilities, and more public works on the peninsula.

For instance, they advocated the improvement of medical service on the Peninsula soon after founding, which the Kowloon Hospital was built five years later.

[3] Later on in the same year it held a joint committee with the Constitutional Reform Association of Hong Kong asking for representation in the Legislative Council but was rejected by the Governor Edward Stubbs.
