Hong Kong securities traders and brokers, who last year lost the longest lunch break of the world’s 20 biggest exchanges, marched to the city’s bourse and booed at executives to protest a further reduction.
About 1,000 brokers and restaurant staff gathered at the headquarters of Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing Ltd. yesterday, booing Chief Executive Charles Li and Chairman Ronald Arculli when they came out of the office to receive a letter of protest for the plan to cut the lunch hour further from March 5.
