HONG KONG: The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) government and police are determined to end the more than four months of social unrest and restore law and order as soon as possible, Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said.
To deal with external challenges, as well as the internal disruption, the government’s top priority was to stop the violence and restore law and order as nothing justified violence, she told the Asia House Future of Trade Conference in Central on Wednesday.
“Working in concert with the police, who have displayed courage and restraint, every government agency is determined to bring the turmoil to an end, ” Lam said.
