Alex Fong Lik-sun (English: Alex Fong Lik-sun, February 26, 1980 -) is a Hong Kong male singer and actor. He was one of the top ten outstanding young people in Hong Kong in 2014. He is a retired member of the Hong Kong swimming team. He once held 11 Hong Kong swimming records. After he set a new Hong Kong record in the 200-meter backstroke and 400-meter medley at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, he held the Hong Kong record for more than 21 years before it was broken. Alex Fong joined the entertainment industry after the 2000 Sydney Olympics and started his college career. He started a "three-dimensional life" of singing, swimming and reading. Later, he gradually faded out of swimming and devoted himself to the entertainment industry. In 2018, he and his partner opened a swimming school, Hong Kong Swimming Academy, to train swimmers. On November 5, 2019, Alex Fong launched the "Hong Kong Island Swimming 45km Charity Challenge" for the charity "Every Little Bit is Life" and completed the entire course in a conference record-breaking time of 10 hours, 43 minutes and 06 seconds, becoming the first native Hong Konger to swim the entire distance.
