DHARAMSHALA, June 1: Tens of thousands of pro-democracy marchers filled the streets of Hong Kong Sunday, as the former British colony marked 15 years since the return to Chinese rule.
The protests rallied around the swearing-in ceremony of Leung Chun-ying, a millionaire property consultant considered close to China's communist rulers, as the chief executive from Chinese President Hu Jintao. |
