HONG KONG - Hong Kong is bracing for more demonstrations this weekend, with protesters threatening to disrupt transport links to the airport as embattled leader Carrie Lam’s withdrawal of a controversial extradition bill fails to appease some activists.
The Airport Authority, in an advert in the South China Morning Post newspaper on Friday, urged protesters “not to disrupt the journey of tens of thousands of travelers who use the airport every day”. The massive and some times violent protests present Chinese President Xi Jinping with his greatest popular challenge since he came to power in 2012.
