The Hong Kong protests in 2014 were sparked by Chinese interference in Hong Kong's elections. Over 150,000 protesters gathered in Hong Kong over several months to protest China's involvement and assert Hong Kong's independence. The protests aimed to protect Hong Kong's democratic system and separate governance from mainland China. While the protests ended without achieving electoral reform, they highlighted Hong Kong's desire to maintain its autonomy.

Hong Kong, the 3rd largest world’s financial center, has exploded into protest. The current prodemocracy protests in Hong Kong came in response to an August decision by the Beijing government to limit voters’ choices in future elections for the autonomous territory’s chief executive. Hong Kong students have been using umbrellas to protect themselves from police tear gas. The umbrellas became a symbol of the movement and gave it its nickname, the Umbrella Revolution.
Why the umbrellas?
Who are the main players?
And what do Hong Kong’s pro-democracy protesters want?
Let’s find out what’s behind the Hong Kong’s Umbrella Revolution.

How would you describe your family background?
I
was born in Beijing, but my family is from the province of
Shanxi. We came from an extremely poor area in the Taihang
mountain range, where my parents were peasants. In the early
1950s, however, my mother came to Beijing when the husband
of her elder sister moved there as an official, to work in their home and
help look after their children. So I was born there in 1963. Soon after-
wards my parents divorced. When I was three, the Cultural Revolution
broke out and we were sent back to the village, where we spent the next
five years. Everyone went hungry. People assume it was the peasants
who had the hardest time, but we had come to the country from the city,
and therefore did not receive even the small food allowance given to
those officially registered in the village. Relatives helped us survive, and
I started primary school there. In 1971 we went back to Beijing, where
my mother got a job as a construction worker. We were dirt poor, and the
work was extremely hard. The building sites were all over Beijing, but to
save money, she wouldn’t take a bus. Virtually every morning she used
to leave home around six o’clock, and wouldn’t get back till nine or ten in
the evening. That was the life of a construction worker in the 1970s.
Coming from the countryside, I had to repeat a year of primary school
and found life at school very tough, as a village boy who didn’t speak
proper Mandarin and stubbornly refused to learn it. But I continued
through elementary, middle and high school in Beijing. On graduating
in 1980, when I was seventeen, I joined the army. Everyone is supposed
66 nlr 34
to do military service, but this isn’t how it works out in reality. In practice,
I volunteered. Why? I clung to a dream. I hadn’t been able to square my
experience of school with the idea of people living in harmony under com-
munism. Like many other young people of my generation, I very much
admired Lei Feng, the soldier officially celebrated since the 1960s for his
concern for others, and joined the pla hoping to follow his example.
How long were you in the army?
I served three years in the Beijing area, in a detachment of military
police assigned to guard the prisons of the region. Within six months,
I had become known as a model soldier; in fact, when I was eventually
arrested, one of the prison officers immediately remembered me, as we
had served in the same unit. I was put in charge of a squad and could
have made a career in the pla simply by following orders. But I became
disillusioned with the corruption of the officers, and began increasingly
to question the orders I received. So I was passed over for promotion,
and repeated applications to join the Party were turned down. After I left
the army, I briefly worked in the library of Beijing Normal ...
Hong Kong went to the polls to elect a new legislature on Sunday, following major protests that have underlined growing anger and unease over perceived meddling from Beijing.

Summary Hong Kongs protests started in June against proposals t.docxdeanmtaylor1545
Summary
Hong Kong's protests started in June against proposals to allow extradition to mainland China. Critics feared this could undermine the city's judicial independence and endanger dissidents. A former British colony, Hong Kong has some autonomy and more rights than the mainland under a "one country, two systems" deal. City leader Carrie Lam agreed to suspend the bill, but demonstrations continued and developed to include demands for full democracy and an inquiry into police actions. The bill was finally withdrawn in September. Clashes between police and activists have been becoming increasingly violent, with police using tear gas and activists storming parliament.
Tie to class
There are several different international reactions to the Hong Kong protest. In the United States, president Donald Trump condemned the developing violence of the protests in calling the events 'riots'. He also said the US will not involve itself. In response, a bipartisan group of senators issued a statement to Trump, condemning Beijing's efforts to undermine Hong Kong's autonomy. In the letter, they declared Hong Kong's governance is not China's internal affair and that if the U.S fails to respond to Beijing's threats it would only encourage Chinese leaders to act with impunity. Trump administration officials said the day after that the president had no intention to signal a policy change or an endorsement of China's position.
North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong ho said that, North Korea fully supports the stand and measures of China to defend the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of the country and safeguard the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, and concerns about foreign forces interference in Hong Kong issue.
The European External Action Service said rights "need to be respected" in Hong Kong. Over the past months, the people of Hong Kong have exercised their fundamental right to assemble and express themselves freely and peacefully. These rights need to be respected.
We can see how they react differently by the political bias they have in their country. Especially, North Korea is a country based on socialism. And that is why they entirely support China.
Personal Takeaway
My personally support the Hong Kong protest. Not only because I have Hongkongese friends, but also because I am Korean. This protest is basically occured by the political problem. Back in the days, Korea also have suffered from losing freedom. We also had a big pre-democracy movement in the 1980s. The government totally repressed the protestors even physical attack just like the Hong kong police nowadays. The protestors didn't surrender at all and finally we got the freedom from the government. I hope Hong Kong protestors could gain the things they want without any harm.

Who are we?
BYLINE: An evolving sense of identity is changing the socio-political scene, writes Clarence Tsui
SECTION: NEWS; Behind the News; Pg. 12
LENGTH: 1478 words
Having appeared at the forefront of ill-fated campaigns to save Queen's Pier and Wan Chai's Wedding Card Street - not
to mention the fame he attained four years ago as the youngest-ever candidate in district council elections - Chan
King-fai is a veteran in fielding media questions these days. However polished as he might be, he recalls one
particular question that really annoyed him a month ago.
"It was this television journalist who was interviewing me for, well, one of those handover anniversary specials," he
said. "And after all the deliberate questions, he said he had one final question he had to ask me: whether I feel I'm
Chinese now. So after all the discussion that went on about our work, it boils down, again, to such a simplified view of
things."
It's easy to see the source of his ire: for someone who fronts a group called Local Action - comprising activists whose
major objective is to salvage Hong Kong's heritage from the relentless claws of urban renewal - the old chestnut of
taking sides on the Sino-British divide is akin to a swipe at his efforts in cultivate an organic cultural identity for Hong
Kong.
"It's always been such a rigid framework - either you choose to be an Anglophile, or you consider yourself Chinese.
But it's so ridiculous: it's like when somebody said to me that since I admired Queen's Pier so much I must have feelings
for the colonial era, and not for China," Mr Chan said.
Fellow Local Action activist, Chow Sze-chung, agreed, saying: "When we talk about Queen's Pier, it's not just about
British monarchs having landed here. What we wanted to remember is how more than 30 local social movements had
begun and happened right here."
Their view embodies a popular sentiment that bubbled among intellectuals before the handover on July 1, 1997, and
has soared to the forefront in the past few years: that beneath all the focus of Hong Kong as an incidental success story
that resulted from the political manoeuvres between two political powers, there's also a Hong Kong story to be written.
In this story a Hong Kong-specific cultural identity - an indigenous mix of the city's history, from its social upheavals
and heritage to its popular culture - plays a central role.
And it's a mass social movement which basically propelled Mr Chan, his fellow activists and probably even more of the
city's residents in acknowledging that there is a society out there and not just a co-existence of cynical, get-rich-quick
individuals. Hackneyed this might sound, but the demonstration on July 1, 2003, instilled into many a Hongkonger a
communal spirit and local consciousness that had been more or less ambivalent, or even absent, in the past.

6. BEFORE THE PROTEST
➤ HongKong is a democratic place which means that they can
vote freely
➤ It also means that the cantonese people could speak freely for
themselves
➤ Other Chinese country had influence on their elections
7. RESULTS
➤ The Chinese people started to get involved in their pre
elections which the cantonese people couldn't accept
➤ People got into a massive protest over the fact that Chinese
basically are taking away their freedom.
➤ HongKong is a democratic country but people say that
HongKong is also a communism country so its believed to be
a 1 government 2 systems country.
8.
9. AFTER THE PROTEST
➤ HongKong is still a 1 government 2 system country
➤ They now get no other country involved in their pre election
for a chief
➤ They still have their freedom and rights to vote just like before
➤ China couldn't accept the fact they they couldn't pre elect for
HongKong so they got mad and took any social network with
HongKong down which features Instagram!
10. WHY WERE PEOPLE PROTESTING
➤ Beijing electing executive chiefs
➤ Hong Kong not China
➤ Chinese country’s getting
involved
12. CONCLUSION
➤ You all might thing well whats the answer to your essential question well
we are gonna tell you.
➤ I want you to change mindset for a moment and put yourself in the
cantonese people’s shoes and say to yourself my country do we need
someone whom we can trust with our government and our world choices.
➤ Do we need someone whom we can't choose ourself to take care of our
economy and our world stocks.
➤ If you can either say yes or no to those 2 questions then you basically
found you answer!
