Hong Kong Protest  

On September 4, Hong Kong citizens breathed a sigh of relief after pro-China leader and Hong Kong chief executive Carrie Lam decided to withdraw the controversial extradition bill that allows local Hong Kong people to be prosecuted in the Chinese mainland. However, with no further updates, the demonstrators called for a protest.

After China Daily took to social media to claim that there would be massive terror attacks by anti-government fanatics, the activists, who are staging protests in the specially administered region said they would suspend their protests on Wednesday on the anniversary of September 11 attack in the US.

With the Asian financial hub plunged into crisis by months of pro-democracy protests, several small public rallies of support by Hong Kong students have been held at Australian universities.

The abrupt shutdown at one of the world's busiest hubs came as the Chinese government signalled its rising anger at the protesters, denouncing some of the violent demonstrations as "terrorism".
