        Carrie Lam's only fault is her lack of firmness in dealing with a crisis, which calls for authoritarian approach. It is basic management principle.

        Really excellent article. All could have been avoided if she killed the bill after the 1st/2nd March. The movement has shifted from just the bill to freedom for hk. The protestors have got sucked into fighting the police when should be focusing on Lam & the govt. Clever...

        Even the HK government grant the 5 demands, the protests will make other demands. We know they demand to eradicate the #ExtraditionBill before, and they get it. But then came the 5 demands. What they want is bloodshed. They are playing the play script of Tiananmen 2.0.

        The main trouble makers are those instigators behind the protesters

        This is what happens when leadership is imposed upon the citizens #undemocratically. Those who are not the true #representatives of the #citizens of #HongKong are afraid of #UniversalSuffrage #IndependentProbe into violence around #AntiExtraditionProtests. What else to expect?

        No need to shift. The Endowment Fund of America and many Western NGOs (many British) have been funding universities and students since years. HKers must be new and naive about Western intervention, but the mark is clear; the stupids never innovative in their tactics.
