Stuart Wong

Official Candidate Biography

I live in the heart of this beautiful city. I've run a successful family business for over 40 years and will care for this city like it's my own business. I'm a hard worker, and I'll work for you and with you.

I stand with the Independent Together Vote for IT group as real change requires a majority around the council table. Our team will ease the financial burden on ratepayers and renters. We will cut wasteful spending, restore access for all, and stop unnecessary projects that the city cannot afford. We will work towards a zero-rates increase and get the council to stick to core priorities, while protecting suburban community assets like parks, pools and halls. We'll keep party politics out.

To guarantee real positive change and to keep Wellington affordable for future generations, vote for me and the other candidates from Independent Together - Vote for IT. www.voteforit.nz

The Spinoff — September 26, 2025

As local elections fever grips the nation, council candidates are jostling for your vote the best way they know how: by chucking up great big bloody signs on the side of the road. Here are The Spinoff’s top picks from around the motu. Oh oh oh, Ohakune (David “Rabbit” Nottage, Ruapehu District Council) Here’s a man who knows his colour wheel, with the plummy purples of his tie and shiny (!) leopard print (!) shirt popping beautifully against the egg yolk yellow of whatever the hell that is behind him (choco eclair tank?).
