HONG KONG (Reuters) - About 200 protesters, many of them Vietnamese, staged an anti-China protest in Hong Kong on Sunday over a sovereignty dispute in the South China Sea, in the first instance of such Vietnam-linked demonstrations so close to China.

The protesters, many of them Vietnamese now resident in Hong Kong, and other supporters, marched peacefully from Hong Kong's government headquarters to a branch office of China's Foreign Ministry brandishing red-starred Vietnamese flags, singing patriotic songs and chanting Vietnamese slogans.
