Supporters celebrate after pro-Beijing politician Junius Ho lost his election in Hong Kong, early Monday, November 25, 2019.
"The government will certainly listen humbly to citizens' opinions and reflect on them seriously," Lam said in a statement issued by the government. It was eventually withdrawn, but the resulting public anger unleashed broader demands and led to violent clashes between police and protesters. Anti-Beijing candidates grabbed 388 seats — a stunning net gain of 263 — according to local media, with the establishment holding on to only 59. Five went to independents.Beijing did not immediately comment but Foreign Minister Wang Yi, on a trip to Japan, implicitly underlined China's ultimate sway over the city, saying "no matter what happens, Hong Kong is a part of China".
