More than 2,000 people marched in Hong Kong on Sunday to mark 30 years since a pro-democracy protest in Beijing's Tiananmen Square ended in bloodshed.

More than 2,000 people marched in Hong Kong on Sunday to mark 30 years since a pro-democracy protest in Beijing's Tiananmen Square ended in bloodshed.

Hundreds, if not thousands, of unarmed protesters and onlookers were killed late on June 3 and in the early hours of June 4 as a result of the martial action. The semi-autonomous territory of Hong Kong, however, holds yearly vigils and other gatherings to remember the deceased and pay tribute to the spirit of the protests.

Revisions to the law would make it easier to send criminal suspects to mainland China, where critics say they could face vague national security charges and unfair trials.

China makes its case for Hong Kong's divisive extradition billsA Chinese official in Hong Kong is urging the quick passage of legal measures to allow fugitives to be transferred to the mainland. China’s extradition law worries me. But, Trump’s America can no longer stand on moral high ground calling China’s extradition law evil. Trump’s America is now the biggest bully in the world, forcing everyone, including Allies, to pay tribute to America.

China's pig disease outbreak pushes up global pork pricesPrices are up, yet profits are down, as farmers across China struggle to make ends meet as a deadly, unstoppable virus continues to ravage swine herds from Beijing to Hong Kong. africanswinefever So why was the disease named African swine fever Is it to associate Africa with everything bad or what? 'Oh well', that's China's Problem. We are only concerned about the United States. We support our President, President Donald Trump in his negotiations with China on the Unfair Trade Policies. Joe O'Biden has 'No Problem' with China but with the O'Biden' s its all about $$$$$$$$$$ I can imagine the Chinese government is lending pig farmers lots of money to buy lots of swine.
