Hong Kongers of course worried then about their future and continue to worry now, since they know fully about events such as the protests and bloody massacre at Tiananmen Square in Beijing, China in 1989. During one particular taxicab ride, our driver said to us "The mainland Chinese are not as smart. They believe in emperors." In an effort to voice their opinions about the government, their future and a range of other important social issues, Hong Kongers have staged their own protests and vigils right here in front of the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre as well as at nearby Victoria Park. Tales to tell for times to come.
