What's being said on facebook.com/southchinamorningpost

On a political scientist saying HK is becoming "ungovernable", and on the claim Hong Kong activists born after 1980 are rejecting the old ways of protest.

Still fixated on the concept of "governing", perhaps things will get better if politicians start thinking about "serving" instead!

Perhaps these "political scientists" fail to see what "freedom" looks like.

HK people need to let Beijing know that as long as our rights will not be taken away and that people can get affordable housing, everybody will be happy.

Human nature, self interest for political greed still applies to politicians, their lust to keep power always comes first while looking out for the common person ranks pretty low on the list.

First thing, dissolve Legco, bring in a governor from Beijing. Introduce an internal security act.

It is governable if the elites listen to the people, and act on their opinion.

Scrap functional constituencies in Legco.

 

The spirit is praiseworthy but action deplorable when they resort to force. They have been misled.

Methods of protest have been evolving with time. It is a natural phenomenon.

I salute them...stand for what you think is right.

Their methods are atrocious and completely ineffective.

They only care about independence. Have they come up with alternative solutions for bridging the wealth gap? Did they offer ideas to deal with housing issues?

These young people find it hard to adapt. Global recession brings about economic and social problems, these young people cannot see clearly what their future will be and become frustrated.
