Hong Kong's government has issued an apology for its handling of legislation that sparked massive protests. Opponents say the legislation opens the door for interference with freedoms promised to Hong Kong.
Hong Kong’s China-backed government has apologized over the handling of politically charged legislation that sparked massive street protests over the past week.
Tens of thousands of Hong Kongers jammed the city’s streets Sunday in a vehement show of opposition to the legislation that has stoked fears of expanding control from Beijing in this former British colony.Thousands of people have gathered outside Taiwan’s parliament in solidarity with Hong Kong protesters who are marching against a proposed extradition bill.
The crowds, walking slowly and shouting “withdraw” and “resign,” spilled into the street Sunday from downtown Victoria Park and began marching toward the Central district where the government headquarters is located. The call comes as Hong Kong residents gather for a march through the downtown on Sunday to protest a government plan to enact extradition legislation. Hong Kong’s top leader said she was suspending the proposal but opponents want her to drop it for good.
