HONG KONG - Here are comments from some protesters at a pro-democracy rally on Sunday that is expected to gauge broad support for anti-government demonstrations that have roiled the Chinese-ruled city for six months.

“The protest has lasted for half a year. It’s Christmas time soon but we don’t have the mood to celebrate anymore, so I bring this placard to express that the wish of Hong Kongers is no longer about material possessions but about universal suffrage, a common wish that we all have been fighting for,” he said, holding up a poster that says “My 2020 wish is universal suffrage.

“We need Carrie Lam to reply to our five demands...We will keep going until she replies to our five demands.”“We are glad to hear that so many countries are watching what Hong Kong is doing. It is positive.”“We are geared up like this but we think a peaceful way is the best way to beat the government.”
