Hong Kong's popular Democratic Party packed up its office at Government House and moved to a rented office space on Thursday.
The Democrats were ousted from Hong Kong's legislative body when China's handpicked Provisional Legislature took over on July 1.
The Democrats refused to participate in the new legislature and instead are preparing for the next elections due to be held early next year.
Martin Lee and his Hong Kong Democratic Party are moving their offices from Government House.
The Democrats made up the largest party in the territory's last elected Legislative Council, having secured 18 seats in the legislature which was fully elected in 1995.
However China disbanded the Legislative Council after Hong Kong's return to Beijing on July 1 and replaced it with its handpicked Provisional Legislature.
As a result, half of the 60 member pre-handover legislature lost their seats, including the Democrats.
Lee and his fellow party members on Thursday moved out of their old office space, which will soon be taken over by the newly sworn in Provisional Legislators and their staff.
China insisted on dissolving the elected body at the end of British rule, despite the fact that its terms was to run until 1999.
Beijing maintained that Chris Patten, Britain's last Hong Kong governor, had expanded the franchise without Chinese permission.
Martin Lee, however, disputes the legitimacy of China's decision.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"We won in the last elected Legislative Council which was September 1995 for a four year term. But of course the Chinese government has annulled this elected legislature, and our places have been taken over by the Provisional Legislature which is effectively a China appointed body."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The government of the new Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong announced on Thursday a new electoral regulation which will further disadvantage the Democratic Party.
The regulation will give smaller parties more opportunities to win seats by proportional representation.
Furthermore, the new government will set up an election committee comprising members from the Provisional Legislature and China's political organisations.
Lee says the Democrats are not deterred by Beijing's attempts to limit their political activity.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"But we will make a comeback. So long as there are elections in which the public can participate, we will join those elections, knowing of course that the rules will be bent entirely against us."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The election is due to take place early next year.

On a visit to the U-S, the leader of Hong Kong's Democratic Party Martin Lee has raised concerns with U-S government officials about the future of democracy in Hong Kong.
Mr Lee reminded the U-S of its pledge to support the democratic and human rights of Hong Kong under the agreement known as the U-S-Hong Kong Policy Act.
In the U-S to meet with government and business leaders Hong Kong's Democratic Party leader Martin Lee spoke of his concerns about Beijing's plans for Hong Kong when it reverts to Chinese rule next year.
Lee said U-S China relations were crucial to the future of Hong Kong.
SOUNDBITE:
"We told the Vice-President and Mr Lake that my party, which is the strongest and most popular party in Hong Kong, supports unconditional renewal of the Most Favoured Nation status for China and we explained to them that without it Hong Kong will get hit first and hit badly and the Vice-President and also Mr Lake expressed appreciation of the stance we take and said it is most helpful to the U-S Administration."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, leader of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
He said he was concerned the Chinese government in 1997 was planning to shut down the legislature which is now controlled by pro-democracy members.
SOUNDBITE:
"And it is clearly up to the U-S administration to decide what to do. That is of course - I would remind you - of this U-S - Hong Kong Policy Act which requires the U-S government to treat Hong Kong as a separate entity from Britain today and from China after 1997. And it also pledges the full support of democracy, human rights and the rule of law with particular emphasis on an elected legislature. Now if this elected legislature will be replaced by an appointed one then the rule of law in Hong Kong can no longer be preserved. Hong Kong will no longer have this healthy environment to attract overseas investors."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, leader of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Martin Lee says if that declaration can be violated it only opens the door to others also being ignored.

The chairman of Hong Kong's top political party says he's confident the U-S will take action to ensure civil liberties are preserved in Hong Kong after China's take-over in July.
Martin Lee met Friday with President Clinton and Vice President Gore in Washington - a move that is certain to irritate China.
He urged the U-S to press China to abide by earlier accords on rights and political reforms in Hong Kong.
Martin Lee's White House visit comes as officials in China are signalling a get-tough policy on some rights enjoyed by citizens of Hong Kong.
As Hong Kong's most prominent voice in the fight to preserve democracy, Lee came to Washington urging U-S officials to stand up for Hong Kong's tradition of elected government and rule of law.
Lee says the U-S has given its assurance that it will defend those traditions on behalf of Hong Kong.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I have no doubt at all after this meeting and of course last week's meeting with the Secretary of State Madeleine Albright that the U-S government will defend Hong Kong's freedoms."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
The White House says Clinton "dropped by" on Lee and Gore's meeting - diplomatic language for a semi-official hearing.
Lee took advantage of the face-to-face meeting with the President - stating his belief that China is backing away on earlier promises.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I of course stressed to the Vice President and President the importance of Hong Kong having a legislature which is accountable to the people of Hong Kong. That means an elected legislature. And that is why the setting up of this provisional legislature by Beijing, which is effectively appointed by Beijing, is going to do Hong Kong a lot of harm."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Lee called for the U-S to monitor China's adherence to accords preserving certain rights for Hong Kong's people after China takes over on July 1.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I think the important thing for the United States government to insist that all the promises made by the Chinese government to the Hong Kong people - with the British government in the Sino-British joint declaration be implemented and implemented to the full. The President of course accepts that this is an international agreement."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Mr Clinton's meeting with Martin Lee shows he expects Beijing to protect Hong Kong's freedoms.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
The President said China should not only uphold the economic freedoms that have been so important to the people of Hong Kong but should also continue to extend civil and political freedoms to the people of Hong Kong because that's a necessary condition in creating the environment in which market economics can flourish, which has been, obviously, the key to Hong Kong's success.
SUPER CAPTION: Mike McCurry, White House Spokesman
Lee urged President Clinton to do his part to extend China's most favoured nation status, as Hong Kong would be a primary beneficiary of free trade with the U-S.
Speaking in Hong Kong earlier Friday - the future leader of Hong Kong, hand-picked by Beijing, says he's been let down by Mr Lee's portrayal of Chinese intentions during his U-S visit.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"So far, I have to tell you, I am disappointed.
SUPER CAPTION: Tung Chee-hwa, future Governor of Hong Kong
Tung is urging Lee to paint what he calls the "real picture" of what is happening in Hong Kong.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I Hope that Mr Lee will be speaking really what is really happening in Hong Kong, present a real picture to the President."

Not only that, but earlier promises of further improvements if this proposal was “pocketed first” were dashed by Chief Secretary Carrie Lam who said that once this package was accepted the requirements of Article 45 of the Basic Law for achieving universal suffrage will have been met.

And one of the strongest voices of opposition to the two candidates has come from Hong Kong's democratic camp. Lead by Democratic Party Chairman Albert Ho—the third candidate on Sunday's race—the democrats say they will not be voting for either Henry Tang, or Chun-ying Leung.
Hong Kong's Democratic Party has voiced strong opposition to the region's upcoming Chief Executive Election. Party Chief Albert Ho, who is also running for the race, says the 203 democrats voting on Sunday will not be voting for the two front runners, Henry Tang and Chun-ying Leung because neither candidates are fit to lead Hong Kong.
[Albert Ho, Democratic Candidate for HK Chief Executive]:
"Basically the choice for [the democrats] will be down to one. The main principle is to oppose this 'small-circle' election."
The "small-circle" Albert Ho is referring to is the number of people who will be voting on Sunday—just 1200 out of a population of 7-million. Those who are voting are mostly business elites and special interests groups.
Ho says the pan-democrats will either be voting for him or casting a blank vote. If the election comes down to a second round of voting, they will abstain from participating as a form or protest.
Ho's campaign chief Cheung Man Kwong also dispelled rumors that some democrats may be voting for the other two candidates.
[Cheung Man Kwong, Campaign Chief for Albert Ho]:
"All these rumors are just part of Tang and Leung's election tactics. They have nothing to do with the Democratic Party. Actually after seeing a few of the debates, none of the democrats will vote for Tang or Leung."
The election for Hong Kong's third Chief Executive after the region's return to Chinese rule in 2007 has been a messy one. The two front runners have been marred with scandals, corruption allegations as well as possible links to the Chinese Communist Party.
Many Hong Kong residents have called for greater democracy, and want universal suffrage to elect their own leaders.

Hong Kong
Hong Kong (香港; "Fragrant Harbour"), officially Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, is an autonomous territory on the southern coast of China at the Pearl River Estuary and the South China Sea. Hong Kong is known for its skyline and deep natural harbour. It has a land area of 1104 km2 and shares its northern border with Guangdong Province of Mainland China. With around 7.2 million inhabitants of various nationalities, Hong Kong is one of the world's most densely populated metropolises.
After the First Opium War (1839–42), Hong Kong became a British colony with the perpetual cession of Hong Kong Island, followed by Kowloon Peninsula in 1860 and a 99-year lease of the New Territories from 1898. Hong Kong remained under British control for about a century until the Second World War, when Japan occupied the colony from December 1941 to August 1945. After the Surrender of Japan, the British resumed control. In the 1980s, negotiations between the United Kingdom and the China resulted in the 1984 Sino-British Joint Declaration, which provided for the transfer of sovereignty of Hong Kong on 30 June 1997. The territory became a special administrative region of China with a high degree of autonomy on 1 July 1997 under the principle of one country, two systems. Disputes over the perceived misapplication of this principle have contributed to popular protests, including the 2014 Umbrella Revolution.

Those who are voting are mostly business elites and special interests groups. Ho says the pan-democrats will either be voting for him or casting a blank vote. If the election comes down to a second round of voting, they will abstain from participating as a form or protest. Ho's campaign chief Cheung Man Kwong also dispelled rumors that some democrats may be voting for the other two candidates. [Cheung Man Kwong, Campaign Chief for Albert Ho]: "All these rumors are just part of Tang and Leung's election tactics. They have nothing to do with the Democratic Party. Actually after seeing a few of the debates, none of the democrats will vote for Tang or Leung." The election for Hong Kong's third Chief Executive after the region's return to Chinese rule in 2007 has been a messy one. The two front runners have been marred with scandals, corruption allegations as well as possible links to the Chinese Communist Party. Many Hong Kong residents have called for greater democracy, and want universal suffrage to elect their own leaders.

English/Nat
Hong Kong's popular Democratic Party packed up its office at Government House and moved to a rented office space on Thursday.
The Democrats were ousted from Hong Kong's legislative body when China's handpicked Provisional Legislature took over on July 1.
The Democrats refused to participate in the new legislature and instead are preparing for the next elections due to be held early next year.
Martin Lee and his Hong Kong Democratic Party are moving their offices from Government House.
The Democrats made up the largest party in the territory's last elected Legislative Council, having secured 18 seats in the legislature which was fully elected in 1995.
However China disbanded the Legislative Council after Hong Kong's return to Beijing on July 1 and replaced it with its handpicked Provisional Legislature.
As a result, half of the 60 member pre-handover legislature lost their seats, including the Democrats.
Lee and his fellow party members on Thursday moved out of their old office space, which will soon be taken over by the newly sworn in Provisional Legislators and their staff.
China insisted on dissolving the elected body at the end of British rule, despite the fact that its terms was to run until 1999.
Beijing maintained that Chris Patten, Britain's last Hong Kong governor, had expanded the franchise without Chinese permission.
Martin Lee, however, disputes the legitimacy of China's decision.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"We won in the last elected Legislative Council which was September 1995 for a four year term. But of course the Chinese government has annulled this elected legislature, and our places have been taken over by the Provisional Legislature which is effectively a China appointed body."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The government of the new Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong announced on Thursday a new electoral regulation which will further disadvantage the Democratic Party.
The regulation will give smaller parties more opportunities to win seats by proportional representation.
Furthermore, the new government will set up an election committee comprising members from the Provisional Legislature and China's political organisations.
Lee says the Democrats are not deterred by Beijing's attempts to limit their political activity.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"But we will make a comeback. So long as there are elections in which the public can participate, we will join those elections, knowing of course that the rules will be bent entirely against us."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The election is due to take place early next year.

"We told the Vice-President and Mr Lake that my party, which is the strongest and most popular party in Hong Kong, supports unconditional renewal of the Most Favoured Nation status for China and we explained to them that without it Hong Kong will get hit first and hit badly and the Vice-President and also Mr Lake expressed appreciation of the stance we take and said it is most helpful to the U-S Administration."

He said he was concerned the Chinese government in 1997 was planning to shut down the legislature which is now controlled by pro-democracy members.
SOUNDBITE:
"And it is clearly up to the U-S administration to decide what to do. That is of course - I would remind you - of this U-S - Hong Kong Policy Act which requires the U-S government to treat Hong Kong as a separate entity from Britain today and from China after 1997. And it also pledges the full support of democracy, human rights and the rule of law with particular emphasis on an elected legislature. Now if this elected legislature will be replaced by an appointed one then the rule of law in Hong Kong can no longer be preserved. Hong Kong will no longer have this healthy environment to attract overseas investors."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, leader of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Martin Lee says if that declaration can be violated it only opens the door to others also being ignored.

The chairman of Hong Kong's top political party says he's confident the U-S will take action to ensure civil liberties are preserved in Hong Kong after China's take-over in July.
Martin Lee met Friday with President Clinton and Vice President Gore in Washington - a move that is certain to irritate China.
He urged the U-S to press China to abide by earlier accords on rights and political reforms in Hong Kong.
Martin Lee's White House visit comes as officials in China are signalling a get-tough policy on some rights enjoyed by citizens of Hong Kong.
As Hong Kong's most prominent voice in the fight to preserve democracy, Lee came to Washington urging U-S officials to stand up for Hong Kong's tradition of elected government and rule of law.
Lee says the U-S has given its assurance that it will defend those traditions on behalf of Hong Kong.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I have no doubt at all after this meeting and of course last week's meeting with the Secretary of State Madeleine Albright that the U-S government will defend Hong Kong's freedoms."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
The White House says Clinton "dropped by" on Lee and Gore's meeting - diplomatic language for a semi-official hearing.
Lee took advantage of the face-to-face meeting with the President - stating his belief that China is backing away on earlier promises.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I of course stressed to the Vice President and President the importance of Hong Kong having a legislature which is accountable to the people of Hong Kong. That means an elected legislature. And that is why the setting up of this provisional legislature by Beijing, which is effectively appointed by Beijing, is going to do Hong Kong a lot of harm."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Lee called for the U-S to monitor China's adherence to accords preserving certain rights for Hong Kong's people after China takes over on July 1.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I think the important thing for the United States government to insist that all the promises made by the Chinese government to the Hong Kong people - with the British government in the Sino-British joint declaration be implemented and implemented to the full. The President of course accepts that this is an international agreement."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Mr Clinton's meeting with Martin Lee shows he expects Beijing to protect Hong Kong's freedoms.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
The President said China should not only uphold the economic freedoms that have been so important to the people of Hong Kong but should also continue to extend civil and political freedoms to the people of Hong Kong because that's a necessary condition in creating the environment in which market economics can flourish, which has been, obviously, the key to Hong Kong's success.
SUPER CAPTION: Mike McCurry, White House Spokesman
Lee urged President Clinton to do his part to extend China's most favoured nation status, as Hong Kong would be a primary beneficiary of free trade with the U-S.

And one of the strongest voices of opposition to the two candidates has come from Hong Kong's democratic camp. Lead by Democratic Party Chairman Albert Ho—the third candidate on Sunday's race—the democrats say they will not be voting for either Henry Tang, or Chun-ying Leung.
Hong Kong's Democratic Party has voiced strong opposition to the region's upcoming Chief Executive Election. Party Chief Albert Ho, who is also running for the race, says the 203 democrats voting on Sunday will not be voting for the two front runners, Henry Tang and Chun-ying Leung because neither candidates are fit to lead Hong Kong.

"Basically the choice for [the democrats] will be down to one. The main principle is to oppose this 'small-circle' election."
The "small-circle" Albert Ho is referring to is the number of people who will be voting on Sunday—just 1200 out of a population of 7-million. Those who are voting are mostly business elites and special interests groups.
Ho says the pan-democrats will either be voting for him or casting a blank vote. If the election comes down to a second round of voting, they will abstain from participating as a form or protest.
Ho's campaign chief Cheung Man Kwong also dispelled rumors that some democrats may be voting for the other two candidates.
[Cheung Man Kwong, Campaign Chief for Albert Ho]:
"All these rumors are just part of Tang and Leung's election tactics. They have nothing to do with the Democratic Party. Actually after seeing a few of the debates, none of the democrats will vote for Tang or Leung."
The election for Hong Kong's third Chief Executive after the region's return to Chinese rule in 2007 has been a messy one. The two front runners have been marred with scandals, corruption allegations as well as possible links to the Chinese Communist Party.
Many Hong Kong residents have called for greater democracy, and want universal suffrage to elect their own leaders.

And one of the strongest voices of opposition to the two candidates has come from Hong Kong's democratic camp. Lead by Democratic Party Chairman Albert Ho—the third candidate on Sunday's race—the democrats say they will not be voting for either Henry Tang, or Chun-ying Leung.

25 Things to do in Hong Kong Travel Guide Transcript:
Today we’re taking you on a tour of one of Asia’s most dynamic cities: Hong Kong (香港)! Yes, this is a city of modern skyscrapers and futuristic architecture, but if you scratch beneath the surface and spend a little time here, you’ll discover pockets of tranquility in the form of incense-filled temples and bonsai gardens, a delicious foodie scene that features budget friendly Michelin-stared restaurants, mountainous islands that are an easy day trip away, antique markets full of treasure, and a dazzling skyline you won’t soon forget. Without further ado, let us show you 25 things to do in Hong Kong.
And that’s a wrap for Hong Kong (香港). We hope that you enjoyed this travel guide and that it gave you a few ideas of things to do and places to visit on your own trip. We know we only covered a small fraction of everything Hong Kong (香港) has to offer, so if you have any other suggestions of things travellers should experience, feel free to share those in the comments below. Wishing you happy travels and until next time!
This is part of our Travel in Hong Kong video series showcasing Hong Kong food, Hong Kong culture and Hong Kong cuisine.

Hong Kong, a former British territory, is one of the most densely populated places in China and in the world. You’ll find quiet neighborhoods full of temples and a dazzling skyline loaded with shopping and dining opportunities.
Your Hong Kong tour must include visits to the many religious sites scattered around the city, where incense wafts from shrines and monasteries take over entire hillsides. You’ll have a marvelous time shopping in tax-free Hong Kong, where you’ll be able to find clothing, jewelry, furniture, and everything else under the sun.
Don’t forget about Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade, which overlooks the stunning Victoria Harbor. From there, your Hong Kong sightseeing may detour to Central, the city’s main business district, which looks like something out of a sci-fi film. The observation deck atop the International Commerce Centre will show you fantastic views of the city.
Hong Kong isn’t all cityscape, of course; there are many gardens, parks, and other green spaces for you to explore. You’ll also find beaches, national parks, and quiet islands for you to indulge in natural beauty and serenity. This city truly has everything.

Hong Kong is one of the most exciting cities in the world. What makes this city so vibrant and energetic? It is nearly seven million residents. The city has a unique blend of Western and Chinese culture, which seem to co-exist very well and help make this city so fascinating.
The most important places to visit in Hong Kong are: The Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery (this statue is one of the five largest statues of Chin), The Victoria Peak (this is something like a top view or a view point from where you can see the entire city of Hong Kong), Avenue of Stars (a place of tribute to the film stars, both past and present Hong Kong cinemas) and many more.
This video offers a lot of tips to help you plan the perfect vacation. If you want to save time and money, the most important Hong Kong travel tip is to compare prices before booking a hotel room or a flight. You can do this for free on http://bookinghunter.com, a site that searches through hundreds of other travel websites in real time for the best travel deals available.

Not only that, but earlier promises of further improvements if this proposal was “pocketed first” were dashed by Chief Secretary Carrie Lam who said that once this package was accepted the requirements of Article 45 of the Basic Law for achieving universal suffrage will have been met.

English/Nat
Hong Kong's popular Democratic Party packed up its office at Government House and moved to a rented office space on Thursday.
The Democrats were ousted from Hong Kong's legislative body when China's handpicked Provisional Legislature took over on July 1.
The Democrats refused to participate in the new legislature and instead are preparing for the next elections due to be held early next year.
Martin Lee and his Hong Kong Democratic Party are moving their offices from Government House.
The Democrats made up the largest party in the territory's last elected Legislative Council, having secured 18 seats in the legislature which was fully elected in 1995.
However China disbanded the Legislative Council after Hong Kong's return to Beijing on July 1 and replaced it with its handpicked Provisional Legislature.
As a result, half of the 60 member pre-handover legislature lost their seats, including the Democrats.
Lee and his fellow party members on Thursday moved out of their old office space, which will soon be taken over by the newly sworn in Provisional Legislators and their staff.
China insisted on dissolving the elected body at the end of British rule, despite the fact that its terms was to run until 1999.
Beijing maintained that Chris Patten, Britain's last Hong Kong governor, had expanded the franchise without Chinese permission.
Martin Lee, however, disputes the legitimacy of China's decision.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"We won in the last elected Legislative Council which was September 1995 for a four year term. But of course the Chinese government has annulled this elected legislature, and our places have been taken over by the Provisional Legislature which is effectively a China appointed body."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The government of the new Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong announced on Thursday a new electoral regulation which will further disadvantage the Democratic Party.
The regulation will give smaller parties more opportunities to win seats by proportional representation.
Furthermore, the new government will set up an election committee comprising members from the Provisional Legislature and China's political organisations.
Lee says the Democrats are not deterred by Beijing's attempts to limit their political activity.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"But we will make a comeback. So long as there are elections in which the public can participate, we will join those elections, knowing of course that the rules will be bent entirely against us."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The election is due to take place early next year.

Beijing maintained that Chris Patten, Britain's last Hong Kong governor, had expanded the franchise without Chinese permission.
Martin Lee, however, disputes the legitimacy of China's decision.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"We won in the last elected Legislative Council which was September 1995 for a four year term. But of course the Chinese government has annulled this elected legislature, and our places have been taken over by the Provisional Legislature which is effectively a China appointed body."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The government of the new Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong announced on Thursday a new electoral regulation which will further disadvantage the Democratic Party.
The regulation will give smaller parties more opportunities to win seats by proportional representation.
Furthermore, the new government will set up an election committee comprising members from the Provisional Legislature and China's political organisations.
Lee says the Democrats are not deterred by Beijing's attempts to limit their political activity.
SOUNDBITE (English):
"But we will make a comeback. So long as there are elections in which the public can participate, we will join those elections, knowing of course that the rules will be bent entirely against us."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Hong Kong Democratic Party leader
The election is due to take place early next year.

English/Nat
On a visit to the U-S, the leader of Hong Kong's Democratic Party Martin Lee has raised concerns with U-S government officials about the future of democracy in Hong Kong.
Mr Lee reminded the U-S of its pledge to support the democratic and human rights of Hong Kong under the agreement known as the U-S-Hong Kong Policy Act.
In the U-S to meet with government and business leaders Hong Kong's Democratic Party leader Martin Lee spoke of his concerns about Beijing's plans for Hong Kong when it reverts to Chinese rule next year.
Lee said U-S China relations were crucial to the future of Hong Kong.
SOUNDBITE:
"We told the Vice-President and Mr Lake that my party, which is the strongest and most popular party in Hong Kong, supports unconditional renewal of the Most Favoured Nation status for China and we explained to them that without it Hong Kong will get hit first and hit badly and the Vice-President and also Mr Lake expressed appreciation of the stance we take and said it is most helpful to the U-S Administration."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, leader of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
He said he was concerned the Chinese government in 1997 was planning to shut down the legislature which is now controlled by pro-democracy members.
SOUNDBITE:
"And it is clearly up to the U-S administration to decide what to do. That is of course - I would remind you - of this U-S - Hong Kong Policy Act which requires the U-S government to treat Hong Kong as a separate entity from Britain today and from China after 1997. And it also pledges the full support of democracy, human rights and the rule of law with particular emphasis on an elected legislature. Now if this elected legislature will be replaced by an appointed one then the rule of law in Hong Kong can no longer be preserved. Hong Kong will no longer have this healthy environment to attract overseas investors."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, leader of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Martin Lee says if that declaration can be violated it only opens the door to others also being ignored.

English/Nat
The chairman of Hong Kong's top political party says he's confident the U-S will take action to ensure civil liberties are preserved in Hong Kong after China's take-over in July.
Martin Lee met Friday with President Clinton and Vice President Gore in Washington - a move that is certain to irritate China.
He urged the U-S to press China to abide by earlier accords on rights and political reforms in Hong Kong.
Martin Lee's White House visit comes as officials in China are signalling a get-tough policy on some rights enjoyed by citizens of Hong Kong.
As Hong Kong's most prominent voice in the fight to preserve democracy, Lee came to Washington urging U-S officials to stand up for Hong Kong's tradition of elected government and rule of law.
Lee says the U-S has given its assurance that it will defend those traditions on behalf of Hong Kong.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I have no doubt at all after this meeting and of course last week's meeting with the Secretary of State Madeleine Albright that the U-S government will defend Hong Kong's freedoms."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
The White House says Clinton "dropped by" on Lee and Gore's meeting - diplomatic language for a semi-official hearing.
Lee took advantage of the face-to-face meeting with the President - stating his belief that China is backing away on earlier promises.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I of course stressed to the Vice President and President the importance of Hong Kong having a legislature which is accountable to the people of Hong Kong. That means an elected legislature. And that is why the setting up of this provisional legislature by Beijing, which is effectively appointed by Beijing, is going to do Hong Kong a lot of harm."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Lee called for the U-S to monitor China's adherence to accords preserving certain rights for Hong Kong's people after China takes over on July 1.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I think the important thing for the United States government to insist that all the promises made by the Chinese government to the Hong Kong people - with the British government in the Sino-British joint declaration be implemented and implemented to the full. The President of course accepts that this is an international agreement."
SUPER CAPTION: Martin Lee, Chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party
Mr Clinton's meeting with Martin Lee shows he expects Beijing to protect Hong Kong's freedoms.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
The President said China should not only uphold the economic freedoms that have been so important to the people of Hong Kong but should also continue to extend civil and political freedoms to the people of Hong Kong because that's a necessary condition in creating the environment in which market economics can flourish, which has been, obviously, the key to Hong Kong's success.
SUPER CAPTION: Mike McCurry, White House Spokesman
Lee urged President Clinton to do his part to extend China's most favoured nation status, as Hong Kong would be a primary beneficiary of free trade with the U-S.
Speaking in Hong Kong earlier Friday - the future leader of Hong Kong, hand-picked by Beijing, says he's been let down by Mr Lee's portrayal of Chinese intentions during his U-S visit.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"So far, I have to tell you, I am disappointed.
SUPER CAPTION: Tung Chee-hwa, future Governor of Hong Kong
Tung is urging Lee to paint what he calls the "real picture" of what is happening in Hong Kong.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I Hope that Mr Lee will be speaking really what is really happening in Hong Kong, present a real picture to the President."

And one of the strongest voices of opposition to the two candidates has come from Hong Kong's democratic camp. Lead by Democratic Party Chairman Albert Ho—the third candidate on Sunday's race—the democrats say they will not be voting for either Henry Tang, or Chun-ying Leung.
Hong Kong's Democratic Party has voiced strong opposition to the region's upcoming Chief Executive Election. Party Chief Albert Ho, who is also running for the race, says the 203 democrats voting on Sunday will not be voting for the two front runners, Henry Tang and Chun-ying Leung because neither candidates are fit to lead Hong Kong.
[Albert Ho, Democratic Candidate for HK Chief Executive]:
"Basically the choice for [the democrats] will be down to one. The main principle is to oppose this 'small-circle' election."
The "small-circle" Albert Ho is referring to is the number of people who will be voting on Sunday—just 1200 out of a population of 7-million. Those who are voting are mostly business elites and special interests groups.
Ho says the pan-democrats will either be voting for him or casting a blank vote. If the election comes down to a second round of voting, they will abstain from participating as a form or protest.
Ho's campaign chief Cheung Man Kwong also dispelled rumors that some democrats may be voting for the other two candidates.
[Cheung Man Kwong, Campaign Chief for Albert Ho]:
"All these rumors are just part of Tang and Leung's election tactics. They have nothing to do with the Democratic Party. Actually after seeing a few of the debates, none of the democrats will vote for Tang or Leung."
The election for Hong Kong's third Chief Executive after the region's return to Chinese rule in 2007 has been a messy one. The two front runners have been marred with scandals, corruption allegations as well as possible links to the Chinese Communist Party.
Many Hong Kong residents have called for greater democracy, and want universal suffrage to elect their own leaders.

The delegation will also hold a press conference on the Umbrella Movement and Hong Kong’s on-going struggle for democracy and human rights.
Details are as follows:
Date: 23 October 2014 (Thursday)
Time:2:00pm – 3:00pm (Geneva Summer Time; GMT+2)
Venue:Library, Press Room 2, Building C, Palais des Nations, Headquarters of United Nations in Europe, Geneva, Switzerland

When Kim Jong-un goes off on the crazy train, the world looks to China. But do the two nations still have close ties? Adam Cathcart explains. One year after protesters took to the streets in Hong Kong, Asia News Weekly host Steve Miller checks in with Democratic Chairwoman Emily Lau to see where they stand now. These stories and more regional news are covered in this week’s episode.
What is North Korea’s Kim Jong-un up to?
If we take a look at North Korea, much of the news cycle these days has focused on the expected missile and/or nuclear test in early October — but Kim Jong-un has been doing a lot more than just trumpeting his nuclear and space programs. Miller recently spoke with Adam Cathcart, Editor-in-Chief of Sino-NK to get an idea of what the young leader was up to in the so-called Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and what his relationship was with Chinese president Xi Jinping.
Hong Kong’s fight for democracy one year later
October is just around the corner, marking the one year anniversary of when students and other civic-minded leaders took to the streets of Hong Kong, pursuing universal suffrage and standing firming against a Beijing plan they said amounted to creating a fake democracy.
As we near the anniversary of the so-called umbrella revolution, what’s been going on since then? Yes, student leaders like Joshua Wong have faced charges for their roles in the protests, but what have the pan-democrats been up to? For that, Miller rang up Emily Lau, chair of Hong Kong’s Democratic Party and asked her.
The Asia Brief
In the Friday edition of The Asia Brief, Miller shares five more stories from the region you may have missed. These highlights include an update on Nepal’s new constitution and the incarceration of American Sandy Phan-Gillis. Plus as the haze in the region continues, Indonesia promises to clamp down on those responsible and how Thailand’s lese majaste law claimed another victim.
