HK's future can't be hijacked by those with ulterior motives: China Daily editorial

BEIJING (China Daily/Asia News Network): That the acts of the radical protesters are against both the will and interests of the majority of Hong Kong people was clearly demonstrated by the scenes of ordinary citizens getting down from their stranded buses and helping to remove the barriers set up by the radicals on some of Hong Kong's major thoroughfares on Monday.

Such disruptions meant tens of thousands of Hong Kong workers were forced to stay at home; while many of those who did try to go about their daily lives as normal were trapped for hours as demonstrators prevented train doors from closing, sabotaged traffic lights and blocked major roads and tunnels in the name of their "non-cooperation movement".
