The late DAB chairman Ma Lik (in July 2005) listed the party's four objectives:

  1. furthering co-operation between Hong Kong and the mainland, promoting mutual trust, and creating opportunities economically.
  2. "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.
  3. 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.
  4. to nurture political talent by committing the necessary funding, organising training, providing opportunities for those who want to take part in politics.
