Summary

Hong Kong politics is ruled by Chinese government. Chinese government has ruled that candidates for the chief executive election must be vetted by a nominating committee  dominated by pro Beijing groups.There is not  enough democracy. So,protesters mostly composed of students started to take action. They planned to hold a ballot over whether to accept several government concessions.But they abandoned the plan because of “lack of discussion”.  Tens of thousands of protesters  still have joined a sit-in calling for full democracy in Hong Kong.

Reaction

When I read this article, I thought Hong Kong students is very powerful. If Japan is in same situation, maybe Japanese student don’t take such a big action. Almost all Japanese students are not interesting in politics.  Why so?  I think Japanese students feel that ” Whether I vote or not, Japanese government will not change itself”. So I think Japanese government should change its politics  because of the reason that is different from Hong Kong’s.
