Hong Kong protesters demand mainland Chinese traders leave.
Protesters gather near shoppers in a store at a mall popular with traders from mainland China near the Chinese border in Hong Kong, Saturday, Dec. 28, 2019. Protesters shouting "Liberate Hong Kong!" marched through a shopping mall Saturday to demand that mainland Chinese traders leave the territory in a fresh weekend of anti-government tension.
The protest in Sheung Shui, near Hong Kong's boundary with the mainland, was part of efforts to pressure the government by disrupting economic activity. Police in civilian clothes with clubs tackled and handcuffed some protesters. One officer fired pepper spray at protesters and reporters.Protests that began in June over a proposed extradition law have spread to include demands for more democracy and other grievances.
Protesters complain Beijing and Lam’s government are eroding the autonomy and Western-style civil liberties promised to Hong Kong when the former British colony returned to China in 1997.
