Democracy in Hong Kong

Pro-democracy candidates took 90% of Hong Kong district seats on the election which was held last Sunday. People say this triumph may be a small step for its democracy but must an important step for their future hope. I was skeptical about their violent acts in Hong Kong because their actions caused many problems in business, tourism, education, and their daily lives. By the way, in the Japanese history, it frequently happened that poor people made protests against their leaders to be free from heavy taxes and to get their freedom to live. Seeing the turnover in Hong Kong and our history, protests can also be a way of changing our lives, although I’m sure that violence is not a good resort.
