        Amen... both Gov & Citizens need to make HK better like it or not by being on the same ship & sailing the economic turbulence together.

        Thank you that a rational article finally came out. Violence begets violence. Young people should not forget the example of Ghandi & Martin Luther King Jr. Please set up a channel of communication so that government can make small changes to defuse their anger or hopelessness...

        It’s in the government’s hands to distend the atmosphere, perhaps make an effort answer the tough question in press conferences?

        The key to violence was never in the hands of the protesters, they were never going to stand still while the police beat the crap out of them with life threatening fears.

        protesters r coming to a pause, as we see the government started in sincerely. everybody willing to listen and understand one another, grievances will be dealt with one at a time. increasing pressure just delaying process further.still,calm of water will flow directly accordingly

        It has been a 'summer of madness & discontent' which causes irreversible devastating effect to our economy & tainted our reputation !!We need major shakeup to educate & reform our society before it's too late.

        The way I see it - HK will change for the better when Carrie Lam steps down and Chine stops interfering.
