HONG KONG - Hundreds of protesters took to the streets in the Asian financial hub of Hong Kong on Sunday to demonstrate against a new national security law imposed by China and the postponement of legislative elections.
The poll would have been the former British colony's first official vote since Beijing imposed the new security legislation in late June, which critics say aims to quash dissent in the city. Anti-government demonstrations have declined this year mainly because of limits on group gatherings and the security law that punishes actions China sees as subversive, secessionist, terrorist or colluding with foreign forces.
The number of new daily infections has fallen substantially from triple digits in July to single digits currently.
