Hong Kongers march in silent protest against national security laws

HONG KONG: Hundreds of Hong Kongers marched silently through the city's streets on Sunday (Jun 28) in protest against the looming national security legislation to be implemented by the mainland Chinese government.

Riot police armed with shields were present as the crowd moved from Jordan to Mong Kok in the Kowloon district, as part of a "silent protest", in which they marched but the usual chanting or slogan shouting was mainly absent.

On Sunday, delegates at a meeting of the National People's Congress Standing Committee reviewed the draft of the law, the official Xinhua news agency said.

China's parliament endorsed the planned legislation last month, sending the draft to the Standing Committee for discussion and revision.​​​​​​​
