[Hong Kong 27th Reuters]-In Hong Kong, protests continue with protests starting from the amendment to the "Fugitive Crime Ordinance" that will allow suspects to be delivered to mainland China. Several demonstrations are planned, and protests for democratization are expected to increase.

On the 28th, the fifth year after the large-scale demonstration “Umbrella Movement” seeking a democratic election system has begun, a meeting is scheduled at Soema Park in the center. Authorities have allowed this meeting, and thousands are expected to participate.

On the 29th, demonstrations supporting the democratization movement in Hong Kong and appealing to anti-totalism are planned around the world, including Paris, Berlin, Taiwan and London.

The biggest protests are expected on October 1st at the National Day. A large-scale demonstration will be held from Victoria Park in Causeway Bay, the main downtown area, to the charter garden near the government building.
