Silent marchers mark Tiananmen anniversary
About 600 people marched silently from a Hong Kong park to government headquarters today to mark the 19th anniversary of China’s bloody crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrators in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.
But organisers faced the delicate task of not appearing insensitive at a time when China is mourning the deaths of more than 69,000 people from last month’s earthquake in Sichuan province.
