Hong Kong’s government is considering submitting a report to China relaying the demands and concerns of the pro-democracy protesters who moved in the past four weeks from boycotting classes to occupying streets.
Such a report would provide Beijing with a “reference” on the demonstrators’ opinions, rather than attempt to modify an Aug. 31 ruling by China on Hong Kong’s leadership elections, Chief Secretary Carrie Lam said today in televised talks with the protests’ student leaders.
