Please Punish Hongkongers!

On Oct 28, free newspaper “AM730” ran the headline: “PUNISH! Beijing Halts Shanghai-Hongkong Stock Connect and is going to cut Individual Visit Scheme*. Beijing launched a series of punitive action against Hong Kong.” The threatening headline excited netizens instantly and it is so exciting that a Hong Kong novelist even wrote “Please Punish Hongkongers!”
