Abstract

(Bloomberg) -- Police fired tear gas as thousands of black-clad protesters marched in Hong Kong's tourist district Tsim Sha Tsui on Sunday, as tensions re-emerged after the euphoria of pro-democracy victories at district elections last weekend. Bachelet urged the Hong Kong government to conduct a "proper independent and impartial judge-led investigation" into reports of excessive use of force by police, according to an opinion piece in the South China Morning Post on Saturday.
