        No, not tourist, they are mostly ppl of smuggling. Chinese is not only stop travelling to HK, but also other places. The drop is mainly due to the economic downturn of CCP, but not the #HKprotests

        This is really a decent news! When the city is in the time of so-called "good economy" 95% citizens have no any benefits. But I am pretty enjoyed to the fall of tourism industry which means less mainland people, the air in recent days get fresher and less crowd. #HongKongProtests

        Hitler often called for peace, by which he meant submission to his will. A dictators’ peace is often no more than the peace of the prison or of the grave.
