Party Beliefs
The late DAB chairman Ma Lik (in July 2005) listed the party's four objectives:
- furthering co-operation between Hong Kong and the mainland, promoting mutual trust, and creating opportunities economically.
- "constructive monitor" of the SAR government, scrutinising various government policies and decisions, providing "constructive policy alternatives" whilst securing the progress, prosperity, social stability and harmony for Hong Kong.
- to break down social barriers based on the common interest of Hong Kong; to strengthen communications with Hong Kong residents to better reflect their opinion; to be more accountable to the public.
- to nurture political talent by committing the necessary funding, organising training, providing opportunities for those who want to take part in politics.
