In last some days lot of action are seen in Hong Kong against the Constitution of China. Some of the action's are violent crisis between the police and the protesters of Hong kong, fight at cities airport, peaceful marches in which organisers said that 2 million people walk together. The movement doesn't have clear leaders . Many people help to organise this action anonymously. The demands of the protesters are big and millions of people are protesting to approve their demand. So the question that come in everyone's mind is what the protesters of Hong Kong exactly want. To know about this we need to go in the history of Hong Kong.
The Hong Kong is a British Colony for more than about Hundred and Fifty years apart of it Hong Kong Island was ceded to the UK after a war in 1842 later China leased rest of Hong Kong to British for 99 years. Through time Hong Kong become a busy trading port and its economy took of in 1950s. The city is also very popular with dissidents,who wanted to escape persuasion of mainland China. At the end of 99 years of lease approach the British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and Chinese premier Zhao Ziyang talk about the future of Hong Kong. The communist government of China wanted that all the Hong Kong come back to China. In 1994 the two Nation China and U.K decided that the Hong Kong will be given back to China in 1997 under the principle of '
one county, two rules' it means that Hong Kong is a part of China but it enjoy a special autonomy except in defence and foreign Affair. Because of this Hong Kong have their own judiciary.
What are the causing of protest?
Even Hong Kong enjoy certain freedom that not seen on Mainland China critics feel that the freedom of Hong Kong is on decline. Artist and writer claim that they are in increase pressure to self-cencor.
What are the protesters demanding?
(1) Withdrawal of extradition Bill- The protesters are demanding the complete withdrawal of extradition Bill because the people of Hong Kong fear that the China use that bill to target their enemy countries and take all the benefit that are enjoying by Hong Kong peoples.
(2) Retract the "Riot" Designation- Millions of people block the gate of Legislative Council building the police respond it by firing bullets and smoke bombs it shocked the city. Which results increase in protest.
(3) Independent police enquiry- The police and the government are not talking to protester they are doing the violent action against the protesters example they are firing bullets and doing smoke in Subway station etc. By which the protest is getting increase.
(4) Democracy- This is one of the biggest demand that the protesters of Hong Kong are demanding. The protesters are demanding for Universal adult suffrage by which each person of the country getting right to vote that actually count and choose their leader.
