Hong Kong is now in the 14 consecutive week of demonstrations, and saw fresh violence between police and activists last weekend.

What to say to Carrie Lam ?

In their pre-recorded message Ms Lam said the government would "formally back The Bill to pull in order to completely dispel public concerns".

She Said the protests were "shocked and saddened the Hong Kong people" and the violence "to push Hong Kong towards a very dangerous situation".

"no matter what the dissatisfaction of the people towards the government or The Society , violence is not the way to solve problems," She Said .

"is Currently the stop the violence is The Top priority the preservation of the laws, and modification of The Rules of The Society . The government is strictly against violence and illegal actions. "

Ms Lam said she and other senior officials from municipalities in Hong Kong would visit and talk to people directly about their concerns.

What was the reaction?

Pro-Beijing Deputy Regina Ip told BBC Chinese that the current movement was a "positive Step Forward ".

"It is not every pacify, but hopefully it would clear any remaining doubt in the minds of some of the peaceful protesters," She Said .

"The protests have been driven by a variety of reasons, including, deep-rooted anger over Hong Kong 's widening wealth gap, housing conditions and of the political system. I Am glad that The Chief executive, said that they would go on to enter The District , the direct dialogue with people from all walks of Life . "

Pro-democracy politicians Wu Chi-Wai, however, Carrie Lam compromises as a "fake".

"We need to stop the brutality of The Police . Otherwise, the protests will Keep Going ," he said.

Before Ms Lam's announcement, the leading pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong said that the withdrawal of The Bill would be "too little, Too Late ".

In a series of tweets he said all the protesters, the demands had to be met.

a Fellow of the pro-democracy activist Nathan Law told the BBC that their campaign would go on.

"The Movement in a movement fighting for autonomy, democracy, and Life , the preservation of our species and the restriction of the superiority of The Police So I think the protest is also said to continue on this Basis," he said.

Amnesty International said that although the withdrawal of The Bill was welcome, for an independent investigation into "unnecessary and excessive use of force by The Police was" necessary," More Than ever".

the protesters want to stop Amnesty for all those arrested, more political reforms and for the officials, describes the protests as riots.

By your own time, Hong Kong 's chief executive unforgivable mess created by misgovernment, is the answer to wide public opposition to its proposal.

Finally, it is officially the withdrawal of The Bill .

Yes, It is possible to consider that they already gave The Green light to bill to try to show that Hong Kong is an Autonomous decision-making is still intact.

But the longer it has to be solved debate taken, for the delivery of account -, the broader the claims of the activists have become. Many of the protesters now, they will say don't stop, hold rallies without a truly independent investigation into the Hong Kong police force and the General right to vote in this region.
