Hong Kong umbrella movement marks first anniversary Monday Sep 28,2015

Protesters holding yellow umbrellas gather outside the government headquarters in Hong Kong on the first anniversary of the start of pro-democracy demonstrations.

 

Hundreds of campaigners descended on Hong Kong’s government headquarters on Monday afternoon to remember the 79-day umbrella movement demonstrations that began on  Sep 28,2014

Note

The demonstrations ultimately failed in their two main goals – forcing Hong Kong’s unpopular pro-Beijing leader CY Leung from office and achieving genuine universal suffrage.
