The Convenor of Path of Democracy, independent legislator Ronny Tong, said on Thursday that members of his moderate think-tank will meet with the Secretary for Justice, Rimsky Yuen, next week to discuss Hong Kong's political reform direction.
Mr Tong said he hoped to communicate with not only government officials, but also political parties and social groups in the coming months to try to forge a concensus on how Hong Kong can move forward on constitutional development.
He added that it was also important to get support from the business sector which plays an enormous role in society.
The founder of Centaline Property, Shih Wing-ching, became the first individual from the business sector to join Path of Democracy as a "consultant".
He said he supported the think-tank because it could help Hong Kong break the current deadlock on political reform.
