HONG KONG - Hong Kong visitor arrivals plunged nearly 40% in August from a year earlier, deepening from July’s 5% fall, the finance secretary said as sometimes violent anti-government protests take a rising toll on the city’s tourism, retail and hotel businesses.
"The most worrying thing is that it does not seem that the road ahead is easily going to turn any better," Chan said in his blog on Sunday. Chan said the social unrest had severely damaged the image of Hong Kong as a safe international city and a hub for trade, aviation and finance.

So the govt caved because money, not because democracy
Thanks alot to the HK police with their regular madmen shows, the people of other countries surely know now this may not be the time to come. They do NOT want to be freaking heated up and locked into jail just because they show up on the street for... shopping?
Is this what rioters wanted? ? Who will pay it for?Business crashed. More Jobless. Less money. Will they do responsibility for that?
this is the reason
The CCCP (Corrupt Chinese Communist Party) is LEAST BOTHERED about the FUTURE of Hong Kong and its progress but they are EXTREMELY VIGILANT when ANY SITUATION affects the future of their STUPID CRIMINAL Chinese Communist Party.
Well that’s not a real shocker 🤦♂️🤦♂️
This is true for protest !
Good for them, that's what they wanted
These rioters make a mess in Hong Kong and destroy the lives of truly workers.
Let Freedom Ring!
nice ending to this piece: ///Global credit rating agency Fitch Ratings on Friday downgraded Hong Kong’s long-term foreign currency issuer default rating to “AA”.... “Fitch’s view is purely speculative, lacking justification,” Chan said.///
世界三大国际金融中心，纽约，伦敦，香港。为什么美联储一直不敢降息，他们害怕资本进一步外流。为了使资本回流美国，于是他们搞乱香港，支持英国脱欧，为啥他们不直接做空港股而选择搞乱香港社会呢？因为香港头脑简单的傻屌多，扔个区区几千万美元就收买了这么多傻屌。而这些傻屌还乐在其中。
I fear the excessive force used by the police a lot more
One very nice looking Picture from Hong Kong!
It is dangerous in HongKong. HongKongPolice is terrorist. They caught US, Korea and Japan Tourists. They refused their consulate requests.
Thanks to the rioters. Now you have destroyed your home and destroyed your fellow Hong Konger’s bread and butter.
Anyone truly care about HK will be worried and try to find a solution. So who still try to escalate the tense by violence and trying to involve in foreign powers can not argue that they are fighting for the city.
A city should not rely on single source of tourist . But Hong Kong government (was) enforced such wrong direction for 20 years.
HKprotesters are just killing thier own place. Never eat and shit at the same place.
rioters won't care, they are students/jobless thugs, some rioters even can't spell the word 'police' correctly, they have nothing to lose, why would they fear?!
Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting!
And worse than the road as long as RuleOfLow prevails!
rioters won't care, they are students/jobless thugs, they have nothing to lose, why would they fear?!
Ya think?
Who wants to your riots
